These being:
A female character played a large role, was either the main character or the shared main character.
Involved some sort of male serial killer or male attacker.
Revolved around either crime, muder or mystery.
In Line of Duty and Money Heist both the female character had a similar costume and were both dressed in suits.
What elements are different?
Throughout all of these media products which I have addressed, they are all very different and have different story lines. For example Money Heist and The Silence of The Lambs, Honey Heist is about a criminal mastermind who has a plan to pull of one of the biggest heists in recorded history and The Silence of The Lambs is about an FBI agent who seeks help from a psychopathic serial killer and former psychiatrist in order to catch another serial killer. Both these storylines are very different and focus on complete different and opposite ideas. But the video game - The Last Of Us and The Silence of The Lambs do both focus on a serial killer and capturing this serial killer, this is something in which they both have in common.
The genre and target audience
All these media products convey their genre as being a thriller or horror/thriller or crime/thriller genre. From this we can analyse these media products opening sequences and use it to our advantage as to what they have used which further helps them portray the genre and then what we can use to further help us portray our genre. By doing this it will appeal more to our target audience as it will further illustrate our genre and make it more clear. For example we can use the short shot duration shots throughout our opening sequence as used throughout the Line of Duty trailer which promoted the genre for this series. The age certificate for Line of Duty is rated a 15, this is the age rating my production group and I have chosen for our sequence.
