Introducing Genre And Subgenre


Genre is the type of movie/category that the film producers choose for their production, often it is aimed  at a specific audience.

Cross genre is when you cross two or more different genres together, for example; Thrille & Horror, Comedy & Romance and sci fi, fantasy and adventure.

The conventions of action movies are:
. Fast Moving
. Some slow contrast to action
. Weapons
. Fighting
. Car chase
. Stunts

Genre is important to PDE (Production, Distribution and Exhibition) because it helps the producers know what type of conventions they're going to use for the movie, for instance in a action movie there will need to be fighting and stunts to appeal to the target audience. Distribution will help the marketing aspects such as advertisements and posters, representing the type of genre it is to the audience and gain a greater demand
