Iconography of our Thriller

During our opening for our thriller, we decided to include as many elements of iconography to create many enigmas for our audience. In our opening we decided to include the following props which create strong enigmas of a thriller –

Blood in sink - This has connatations of a someone washing blood off their hands because they dont want any evidence/trail of their crime they either committed or witnessed.

Blood on Knife - Strong connotations of someone being murdered/injured.

Rope - Connotations of someone being tied up/unable to move

Chair - This creates images of an old house/abandoned area

Drops of Blood - Connotations of blood dripping off a wound/hand

Bottle of Petrol - Strong enigmas of fire/destruction and arson
