Genre Analysis

The task we were given was to go around the school and take three pictures based on three different genres that were randomly chosen for us in class.



This photograph represents the genre which is a time period drama, you can tell by the old fashioned dresses and the ancient army helmet which would typically be used in the previous world wars. A historical movie genre is comprising narratives that take place in the past and are characterized chiefly by an imaginative reconstruction of historical events and personages.


This particular photograph portrays the genre rom/com which is a mixture between a romance and comedy. The romance in the picture is between me and this person who I thought was a women, so the comedy part is the fact that Rachel's real name was Roger and he was secretly a man. A romance movie typically consists of a romantic love story recorded in visual media for broadcast in theaters and on cinema that focus on passion,emotion, and the affectionate romantic involvement of the main characters and the journey that their genuinely strong, true and pure romantic love takes them through dating, courtship or marriage. These are designed to make the audience laugh through amusement and most often work by exaggerating characteristics for humorous effect.


The third photograph is for the genre which is mystery, this genre was personally quite difficult to create because their is no specific film I can think of that is directly related to this. The actual mystery is why the creepy and suspicious man with the pink wig is watching this couple. Mystery film is a genre of film that revolves around the solution of a problem or a crime. It focuses on the efforts of the detective, private investigator or amateur sleuth to solve the mysterious circumstances of an issue by means of clues, investigation, and clever deduction.

  1. Great photos, where did you get the costumes for the time period drama? With mystery you could probably dress up as a detective looking at clues but even that would be a little ambiguous, or Cluedo props.
