Genre Conventions

The genre of our film is drama, to fit in with this genre we used the following things.

-it exhibits real life situations and the reality of them, so the audience can easily relate to the characters and the events- which is the purpose of a drama film; to move to audience and take them on a journey throughout the film.

-The theme is dramatic and real.

-We have both tense music to build tension which leads on to the rest of the film.

-We have used little dialogue so there are many questions for the audience to ask about the film and want to watch the rest of it.

- During the memories we have used low key lighting.

-Many of the shots as long, establishing shots to set the scene.
