Individual Collage of Iconography associated with the genre

We had to make a collage that we thought represents a thriller film. We had to include:

• Props
• Costumes
• Locations
• Lighting

The first picture shows a vulnerable man and a villain in the background. He has blood and sweat on his face which shows that he is stressed and implies that he is the one being chased.

The second picture shows a man in a suit holding a gun. This is a typical character in a thriller film.

The third picture is a picture of a gun as this is a very common prop in thriller films.

Fake blood is used in a lot of thriller films. It helps the character/actor to play their role. If they was to trip and cut yourself, you need fake blood to show this action

Man holding a knife shows that he has power and is a villain of some sort. He is wearing a mask which shows that he is hiding his identity from the victims.

The police are in a lot of thriller films as they have a lot of power over any character in the shot. One of the police are holding a gun which gives them authority and shows that they are masculine characters.

The location of steam shows a girl walking into darkness it sets the scene of the film and shows that it is not a happy film and will involve some thriller.

The magnifying glass represents detectives in the film. They are used to figure out a situation in something specific if the police don't know what to do.

The girl hiding under the bed on the phone, is a girl from the film 'Taken'. She represents all vulnerable girls in thriller films. She shows that she is scared and has no power or any idea about what is going to happen.

The last three pictures show villains in different perspectives. The first one is showing his identity. The second is hiding it through a shadow, and the third is a group of men with weaopns. The location of the last one shows dark, hidden and isolated property which is typical in a thriller film.
