Identity of our Protagonist

This is a question which remains unanswered throughout our Opening Sequence, as we wanted to keep it as a mystery and not give too much away about our characters, especially as we were only filming the first part to our main task. In reality Robert Littleton plays the character of the protagonist being followed by the antagonist, whose motives remain unknown throughout the sequence. There are numerous shots of him throughout the Opening Sequence, where his character is displayed for viewers to see, with only his eyes to cover. This is intended to build up the suspense of the narrative, failing to provide the audience with enough expression to suss out his true intentions. The fact that the Protagonist is dressed in business attire, suggests he is either on his way to, or coming home from a typical days work. However, this idea is replaced with doubt when he produces the document which demonstrates otherwise. In fact, Robert is a trained specialist detective who has actually been hired by C.I. Warnett locate the whereabouts of the Antagonist and bring him to her. Despite his experience and careful attempts to keep his mission secret, he comes to a realisation that he himself is being tracked down!
