To start the project coursework of making my movie teaser trailer, poster and magazine cover. I am going to research a few genres, to give me an idea of what the consist of and how they are portrayed, that i could possibly use.
ACTION FilmsThe genre of action films mainly include fast moving camera shots, to create a feel of a chase or that something dangerous is about to happen. The camera angles show off a hierarchy within the characters, to show who is in charge throughout this action film. Most action films consist of car chases, either with cops or with an enemy, and huge explosions -with lots of sound effects! The characters that are usually portrayed in an action film are strong dominant males, as the main character, usually a stereotypical damsel in distress woman, and/or a child in need of help. Also there is definitely the bad guys and the cops, it wouldn't be an action film without them. The film plot is usually good guy bad guy, and bad guy wants to do something which will put innocent lives at risk, so good guy saves the day and the gets the girl.
ROMANCE Films
The genre of romantic/love films include long shots and close ups for those heartwarming moments. The Characters involved are, loved up male or female role, a person set out to destroy it, for example an ex or mother in law. The film plot is basically the same in any love film, a female or male role, mainly female, to be stereotypical. Falls in love with a person they meet things go well for the pair then a twist happens throughout the middle of the film and they fall out. But by the end of the film all is well and everything is happy again! Those are the traditional 'Love Stories'. Many have love throughout and sad endings, but still the main focus is of LOVE!
HORROR Films
The genre of horror films, consist of dark scenery and puzzling inquisitive story lines. The characters invovled in a horror, are usually bad guy who wants to hurt people and the good people, who get trapped in the murderers cycle and only a few people out of the group of good people survive the trauma they go through. The plot within most horror stories are within the beginning someone gets killed, and thats what everyone then talks about as you are introduced to the main characters. Then the bad guy is usually someone they know or seen almost everyday in their lives, and they play mind games with the characters. A group of friends get involved with the bad guy and a certain number of friends get killed and some survive.

The genre of Sci-fi films, consist of alot of technology being used, with alot of imagination. The characters that are usually in Sci-fi's are, the proffessor or geeky person who has researched the Sci-fi life. The hero male role, the damsel in distress, the bad guy and extraterrestrial characters, good/bad. The plot in Sci-fi films differ from one another but main ones are, its either a human that uses a the extraterrestrial to be evil, or the extraterrestrial is evil itself and wants to destroy earth. Then the proffessor/geek knows a way in which to destroy and defeat their plan but hasnt the courage and in comes the hero, again like action saves the day and gets the girl usually. But somewhere within this film there is a twist involving the technology.
