Story/Plot for 'Branded'

The back story to our film 'Branded' is as follows:
The main character of our film is called Joseph David Laverick. He was once a millionaire and lived a happy life with his family. One day, for reasons unknown, his mansion is burnt down in an arson attack, killing his family and scarring himself. From the day of their deaths he vowed to take vengance on those that killed his loved ones, and sets to take their lives. He kills his victims by slitting their throats and branding them with a symbol of fire, leaving the bodies out for the public to see.

Our film sequence will mainly be focusing on the use of props. We will use props to create meaning and effect throughout.
The first shot of our scene will be one of rain running down a window, immediately setting the tone of the sequence and, indeed, the whole film. The camera then begins to pan across the room, titling slightly, showing numerous object of importance; newspaper cuttings about killer's past, photographs of victims dead bodies, scissors, knives, branding tool, mirrors, chimes ect. These all portray meaning to the audience, showing objects of significance.
