Choosing A Genre To Work With

As a group many of us have been thinking about what genre of film we would be working with for the rest of the year. We researched some films and thought about what the pros and cons of each genre could be. Like this:

And then as a class we compiled all our data together thinking about all the complications and triumphs that can happen with each genre and decided that we would work with the 'Thriller' genre. This is due to the capability of creating something of good quality worth some of the highest marks we are hoping to get for our course. 

Positives of Thrillers: 

• Realism and Realistic Elements
• Set/Props/Costume all relatively easy to assess
• Straight Forward Editing
• Draws Audience In

Negatives of Thrillers:

• Hard to fit action into 2 minuets of coursework

There turned out to be alot more positives for choosing a Thriller over everything else from both the creative side and the filming/acting side of it. So hopefully we chose this genre wisely and our coursework will be the best it can be. Now onto thinking of possible narratives!
