• Explain genre theory and, using Chapter 4 of the text as a
reference, thoroughly describe
the conventions and attributes of your selected genre.
Science fiction is a genre that focuses on new discoveries,
zombies, and robots other
planets, the moon and other advance in technology and even
behaviors not familiar to the
human being such as possessing powers (Roberts, 2006). The
genre concentrates on things
that the people have to imagine and assume that they exist.
Science fiction movies depend on

2. scientific facts, nature and also scientific theories. The
convention of scientific convention
includes setting, film techniques, narrative element, and
symbolism. Setting this is the period
and the place that the film is about it can be the previous years
or many years to come. It
makes the audience think about the movie in those times and not
compare with the actual
time. The place could be in another world, the moon or other
planets. The film techniques,
this is the type of shots that are taken during the shooting the
techniques are important
because they make the film to appear real and flow with the
movie. Narrative content is the
use of the technology invention such as a robot that is
functioning like a normal human being.
(Sanders, 2008)It is also about the things happening in the film
the problems, the challenges
amongst other situations.
• Identify a feature-length film that fits this genre and
provides a basic summary of the
movie. As you develop this summary, remember the differences
between a film’s story and a
film’s plot and how these differences can lead to the inclusion
of genre elements.
Planet of apes is the film I will focus on. It is a science fiction.

They should be either
underlined or in italics (one

steal the drug which makes them smarter and plans for an

manage to go back to the forest.
• Interpret at least two genre conventions exhibited in your
chosen feature-length film that
help classify it in the selected genre. Be sure to provide a
specific example of each
convention (e.g., a particular scene or plot component).
The film is a scientific fiction because the scientist is working
on a drug that will help
the brain to create its cell to repair themselves so during the
board meeting to decide whether
they will allow it to be administered to the human being, so they
had earlier tested the drug
on the ape. As part of the observation, scissor whose mother
passed the gene of the drug that
had been administered to her during pregnancy grows up being
very smart he can complete
puzzles, play chess, use gestures. When the health of will father
worsens he decide to put the
drug into test and the drug works positively on the father.
• Provide an example of the third convention from your
chosen feature-length film and
explain how this convention expands the boundaries of the
specified genre.
Another example of how the convention expands the boundaries

intelligence in scissor he escaped the zoo, stole the drug from
Will’s room and went back to
the zoo where he destroys the containers with the drug, and they
inhale, then they start
understanding that the zoo is not their native home which they
later successfully planned and
stormed out, went to the company and destroyed it.

The following example
demonstrates how to correct
this error: It is correct to
write, "Samantha wrote a

than "Samantha wrote a
