In our thriller we only have one character that is portrayed as the protagonist, with the cloak and the snake eyes at the end, relating the snake and the person together. We also made the protagonist a woman which is unusual for thrillers as conventionally it is men who are the protagonists. We are trying to represent that not only men can be killers or “evil”. Our idea of a killer is different to the usual thriller, as women are portrayed as victims, innocent and vulnerable, so to contradict other thrillers we thought the idea of a woman being a protagonist was a lot more original and women seem bitterer, so have more links to snakes and snakes can be vicious when provoked, which is what women are in our opinion. The cloak that Katie wore represents a sense of mystery we wanted to keep throughout the opening, showing that she's hiding something and can be dangerous. The main link to the snake we have through out the opening is in the ending part of the opening, which is where Katie looks up and she's got the contact lenses in. This idea was based around this scene of when the snake eyes are on the snake and then a person has them, the idea behind that is saying that the woman is like a snake.
