- 3. History Of Drama The history of drama was introduced by the Greeks thousands of years ago, Greeks were one of the first to create drama in theatres, this is where drama normally started. No one knows when people actually started to begin acting out plays and since we don’t know how it all started most people know that Greek people started it by embracing theatres to worship their gods. In the picture below the two famous masks of drama represent the division between comedy and tragedy. These symbols of the ancient Greek muses, Thalia and Melpomene. Thalia was the Muse of comedy, while Melpomene was the Muse of tragedy.

- 5. Conventions Associated With Drama - Flash backs - Conflict - Tension - Pain - Realisation - Monologue - Freeze fame
- 6. Why We Chose Drama And What Inspired Us As a group we decided to choose drama because we wanted to engage our audience as much as possible. We felt as if this will be a good change and something unique because drama is supposed to be very entertaining and it could be very challenging because we would have to relate it to a real life event which the audience would feel sympathy for. But with our editors skill I'm sure we will be able to make our film very entertaining and realistic for the audience
