Props for my opening sequence.

For my opening sequence the props I used can be seen as incredibly iconic instruments in film.

One prop I used was a gun, a gun is used in most film to suggest danger, power and violence in most cases. I chose to use a gun as a prop as an indicator of the characters past troubles and possible conflicts.

This is an example of the prop gun I used in my opening sequence.

The second prop used in my opening sequence is a balaclava mask. This type of mask is found usually in films related to robberies. In modern films they have usually opted to use comedy masks instead of balaclavas, such as in 'Batman: The Dark Knight' where they used clown masks, which would usually have some significance later in the film, such as the make up of the joker in the film.

Overall I feel that the choices for my props were chosen successfully to create the genre of a thriller film.
