Research on genre

Genre research

• We identified that it is essential that you establish your chosen genre before proceeding in any media production.

• The definition of genre is : ‘ a motion picture category based on similarities in either the narrative elements or the emotional response to the film.
• We decide to select the social realism genre to persue during the creation of our teaser trailer.
• The definition of social realism is: ‘the realistic depiction in art of contemporary life, as a means of social or political comment’
• After much deliberation, we decided to focus on the issue of masculine representation in society and the harsh expectations that are paired with being a male as we believe this is a topic that is not frequently addressed.
