The main protagonist character for our short film is the character Jack Morgan. Jack was former worker of the Syndicate International organisation and former employee of Igor. Before he joined the Syndicate, he was an ex-military soldier in the British Army. After leaving the organisation to seek peace and to defend for his own country instead of causing terror with the Syndicate, he has been tracked down and held for interrogation by the group after his recent mission set by MI6 with the help of the bounty hunter "Crimson". Jack suffers from a traumatising past, after losing his wife and family to Crimson who murdered them. To this day, Jack continues to fight with his own drives and is determined to one day gain revenge from both his former boss and Crimson.
The image above is a moodboard I created which denotes images of what Alex and I imagine as being Jack Morgan for this short film. He will wear a pair of sturdy/desert style boots, a green pair of combat trousers, a fleece and a bomber or leather jacket over the top. This style of clothing we have chosen for our character to wear is similar to the style of clothing worn by a character we were initially inspired by, Jack Bauer. The rough, action style clothing is instant connotation of someone who is working in disguise for a secret intelligence service like MI6, but is also an iconic style of clothing for unsuspecting characters in action/adventure films.
Alex and I decided that Morgan Taverner was going to be our actor to play the role of Jack Morgan in this short film. We were prepared to give Morgan a chance at casting the role for the protagonist character in this short film since James unfortunately was unable to give up most of his weekends due to other commitments, however Morgan's excitement to be acting in this short film was what made Alex and I decide to choose Morgan for this role. His enthusiasm will hopefully reflect on his performance when on set.
