Our Character Representation

For our film opening we have chosen Jesse Cole, a performing arts student, to act as our main character. This is because he fitted the role of an African young adult. As he is black our film opening will seem more realistic as he is an immigrant from Africa living in the United Kingdom. The stereotypes that surround African immigrants are usually negative and often involve crime which we have considered in our film opening as our character has had a bad past in Africa and is in the UK looking for a better future. As our character is poor, he will wear cheap clothing and will generally have an unkempt look.
