The document discusses film genre research and provides categories for exploring genres: setting, narrative, characters, iconography, and style. It explains that genres have recognizable elements that can be analyzed using these categories. Specifically, it defines each category, such as narrative referring to story structure and devices, characters usually developing the narrative as certain generic types, setting involving distinct locations that can change, iconography as instantly recognizable visual/audio images associated with a genre, and style describing how iconography is presented through camera work, editing, lighting, and color. Students are instructed to create a Popplet using these categories to show the conventions of a chosen genre or sub-genre, and include film examples.

Genre lacey
Nick Lacey discusses elements of genre including setting, character, narrative, iconography, and style. He sees genres as dynamic and changing over time rather than fixed. Lacey analyzes works using these categories and considers whether they establish a genre, mix genres, are difficult to categorize, or challenge conventions.

Here are some potential issues that could be discussed:
- Genres are not fixed categories and there can be overlap between genres
- As genres evolve over time with new films, it can be difficult to define where one genre ends and another begins
- Some films intentionally mix or challenge genres in new ways that don't neatly fit established definitions
- Personal tastes and cultural contexts can influence how different audiences define and experience genres
- Focusing only on genre risks overlooking other important aspects of how a film works, like themes, style, social commentary etc.
- Genre is just one tool for analysis among many and doesn't capture the full complexity of a film

Here are some potential issues that could be discussed:
- Genres are not fixed or clearly defined which makes categorization difficult
- Works can blend or mix genres making them hard to classify
- As film styles evolve over time, genres change and blur together
- Audience interpretation of genres may differ from academics or producers
- Focusing only on surface elements ignores deeper thematic or cultural aspects
- Genres risk oversimplifying complex works or promoting formulaic storytelling
The genre approach is useful as a starting point for analysis but has limitations. An open discussion could debate both its benefits and shortcomings for understanding media texts.

Genre is useful for film producers, distributors, and audiences for several reasons: it allows producers to capitalize on popular genres, helps distributors market and target audiences, and provides audiences with expectations that give a sense of familiarity and anticipation. However, genre is not clearly defined - genres overlap, elements are not unique to particular genres, and difference is as important as repetition to attract audiences. Analyzing elements like setting, character, narrative, iconography, and style can provide insight into a work's genre or mixing of genres.
Film Genre
Genre is useful to film producers, distributors/marketers, and audiences for several reasons:
Producers like genre because it helps them minimize risk and predict costs and revenues. Genre films are also often easier to write, fund, and market. Distributors/marketers find that genre makes films easier to target and advertise to specific audiences. Audiences enjoy genre films because they provide familiar conventions and expectations while still offering surprises. Genre allows audiences to categorize films and experience themes and resolutions to fears or issues.
The repertoire of elements
The document discusses different elements that contribute to film genres, including iconography, style, setting, narrative, characters, themes, and audience response. Iconography refers to common visual or sound images within a genre, like machine guns in gangster films. Style is how elements are presented, such as the muted tones in Ken Loach films. Setting and characters are also defining elements, like the Old West setting in westerns or gangster bosses in gangster films. Genres often explore universal themes that interest wide audiences, such as opposing values in westerns. Audiences also group films based on the immediate emotional responses and sensations they provide.
Identifying film genre
This document discusses the concept of genre in media. It states that genres have recognizable features and elements that define them, including protagonists, stock characters, common plots and situations, icons, and themes. It provides examples of some common protagonists, stock characters, and icons in different genres like science fiction, westerns, and news programs. The document also notes that while genres have predictable patterns, individual works may vary and genres sometimes combine elements, and it concludes with a recap of the core idea that genres are defined by shared conventions and characteristics across works.
Genre overview
This document provides an overview of genre theory and its academic uses in media studies. Genre theory allows films to be grouped and compared based on similarities, which provides insights into meanings, cultural influences, and how audiences respond. Genres are not fixed categories and can blend elements. A film's genre is informed by stylistic elements, settings, narratives, characters, themes, and target audiences. Genre also influences industrial filmmaking practices aimed at maximizing profits.

Rick altman
Rick Altman proposed a semantic/syntactic approach to genre theory that considers both the conventions (semantic) and narrative structures (syntactic) of genres. This allows for a more sophisticated understanding of genres. He later expanded this to a semantic/syntactic/pragmatic approach by also considering the roles of audiences and institutions. The pragmatic approach views genres as modes of production for film studios and as evolving based on changing audience preferences over time.
Horror week 1
This document provides information about a film studies exam on British film topics. It outlines that the exam will focus on the horror genre, with 3 sections examining audience and producers, British film topics, and a US comparative study. For the British film topics section, students will analyze the macro and micro features of horror films, including their narratives, representation issues, audiences, and context. At least two British horror films must be discussed in detail: The Descent (2004), Dog Soldiers (2002), The Woman in Black (2012), and Dracula (1958). Sample exam questions are provided focusing on narrative, representation, and distinctive British elements.
Intro to Film: Genres
This document discusses film genres. It defines a film genre as a structure of story that is often repeated with similar settings, characters, conflicts and values. Genres are derived from a film's setting, theme, mood or format and help classify films. Genres are initially developed from successful films that studios then emulate. Repeated success establishes conventions that audiences expect, ensuring future audience interest. Genres give directors templates and audiences expectations about what a film will contain. [/SUMMARY]
Genre elements
The document discusses elements that define film genres, including iconography, setting, characters, narrative, style, theme, and audience response. Iconography refers to recurring images that identify a genre, like machine guns in gangster films. Settings are also important, as genres are associated with distinct time periods and locations. Different genres feature characteristic hero and villain characters. Narrative refers to a genre's story structure and devices. Style considers camera work, lighting, color, and tone. Themes often involve binary oppositions. Audience response associates some genres with targeted demographics.
Repertoire of elements
Genre theorists now refer to a "repertoire of elements" that can be used to construct generic descriptions. This repertoire includes iconography, style, setting, narrative, characters, themes, audience response, and target audience. Iconography refers to the visual and auditory conventions associated with a genre. Style describes how elements are presented through techniques like camera work and editing. Setting and narrative are also important elements, with genres typically having recognizable locations and story structures. Characters generally fall into familiar roles that drive the narrative. Themes explore common concepts through binary oppositions. Audience response and target audience complete the repertoire, with genres aiming to elicit specific emotional impacts from intended demographics.
Genre
This document defines and provides examples of key elements that comprise a film genre, including the protagonist, stock characters, plot and stock situations, icons, background, and themes. The protagonist is the main character that encounters obstacles to overcome. Stock characters are minor stereotypical roles. Plot and stock situations refer to the sequence of causally related events and frequently recurring sequences of action. Icons are immediately recognizable images associated with a genre. Background refers to the distinct locations associated with a genre. Themes underpinning a genre's narrative often explore universal concepts through binary oppositions.

Burton’s genre theory
Burton's genre theory proposes that genres can be defined by key elements such as protagonists, stock characters, predictable plots, icons, background/décor, and themes. These elements recur across examples of a genre to create expectations for audiences and allow genres to be categorized. The theory provides a formula to define genres based on the combination of these elements. An analysis of three horror films found they shared many of Burton's proposed key elements for the genre, supporting that his theory can accurately describe and define genres.
Understanding Movies
The document discusses various elements of movies including photography, mise-en-scène, editing, story, and genres. It covers topics such as camera shots, angles, lighting, composition, cutting techniques, narrative structures, and the conventions of different styles of films like realistic, formalistic, and documentary. Key filmmaking concepts and theories are explained through examples from famous movies.
Genre Elements
The document discusses approaches to studying film genre. There are two major approaches: the descriptive approach, which focuses on categorizing films based on formal qualities like theme and style, and the functional approach, which examines how genre plays a social and cultural role. Genres are defined by common elements like iconography, setting, characters, narrative, style, and theme. However, genres are not fixed and many films combine elements of multiple genres. Producers also use genre conventions to target audiences and aim for box office success.
Genre
This document discusses genre in film and its importance to film producers and audiences. Genre helps define a story's plot and grab audience attention. It provides insight into the director's intentions and categorizes films for specific target audiences. The document also notes that genres have evolved over time, with past popular genres including sci-fi, westerns, horror and romantic comedies. Mise-en-scene and hybrid genres that blend two styles can also help define and attract audiences to a film.
Media presentation
The document discusses key concepts related to analyzing films and movie posters, including genre, representation, audience, institutions, narrative conventions, movie poster conventions, genre conventions, and mise-en-scene. It provides definitions and examples for each concept. Genre refers to the category of a media work, representation is how something is portrayed, and audience describes who the media is targeted towards. It also outlines common narrative structures and conventions found on movie posters, in different genres, and aspects that comprise mise-en-scene like costumes, props, makeup, background, and lighting.
Genre
Genre is a way of classifying texts into categories to help audiences understand and engage with them. There are three main types of genre: major genres, sub-genres, and hybrid genres which combine elements of multiple genres. Genres are defined by common narrative structures, character types, settings, visual elements, and themes. They help audiences understand what to expect and target specific viewer demographics. While genres provide predictability, they also evolve over time to reflect societal changes.
Genre signifiers
This document discusses genre theory and genre signifiers in film. It provides background on genre theory from Andrew Tudor and explores how to identify common formal elements and features that are recognizable in specific genres like romance, horror, science fiction, and others. Participants are asked to consider genre signifiers related to colors, costumes, character types, objects/props/symbols, settings, music/sounds, and plotlines. The document also discusses genre hybrids and how film parodies often rely on an understanding of generic traits for their humor. Finally, it notes Tudor's view that notions of genre may be ineffective due to cultural differences in understanding genres.

Participants are asked to consider genre signifiers like colors, costumes, character types, objects, settings, music, and plotlines. The document concludes by discussing genre hybrids and Tudor's view that notions of genre may be ineffective due to cultural differences in understanding genres.
Genre and genre hybrids
Genre refers to the categorization of artistic works based on similarities in form, style and content. Originally defined by Aristotle to classify different types of plays, genres can also be combined into hybrids. A genre hybrid mixes two or more genres together in a single work, such as the zombie comedy "Shaun of the Dead." Creating genre hybrids allows films to appeal to broader audiences and attract more viewers, ensuring higher profits. As such, genre hybridization is considered a popular and potentially future-oriented approach for the film industry.
Genre presentation updated
There are many genres of films including action, adventure, comedy, crime, drama, and science fiction. Genres are identified by conventions such as locations, props, characters, costumes, sound, cinematography, narrative, and themes. Over time, genres evolve in response to changes in society and audience tastes. For example, epic films now contain more action and focus on subgenres that audiences prefer such as biopics.
Semantic and Synactic
The document discusses semantic and syntactic features that are commonly found in horror films. Semantic features include elements of mise-en-scene like lighting and costumes, as well as posters, props, and ominous locations that represent the horror genre to audiences. Syntactic features include character archetypes like heroes and villains, and how camera angles can influence the narrative. Both semantic and syntactic elements are used to convey the genre through visual representation and storytelling techniques.
Lacey's repertoire of elements
This document analyzes the genre elements that define the action thriller genre according to Nick Lacey's framework. It then applies these elements to summarize a trailer for the film "Walk Among the Tombstones." The key genre elements of setting, characters, narrative, iconography, and style are all discussed as seen in the trailer. Examples are provided for each element that follow typical conventions of the action thriller genre.
Intro to cinema powerpoint: Experimental
Experimental films challenge orthodox ideas about what films can show and how they show it. They have no set rules, so styles vary widely from personal experiences to manipulating audiovisual elements. Kenneth Anger's Scorpio Rising exemplifies experimental possibilities through a combination of staged and found footage exploring 1960s motorcycle culture and comparing it to rituals. Abstract films organize around visual elements rather than narratives, often using theme and variation structures like J.J. Murphy's Print Generation. Ballet Mécanique was one of the earliest and most influential, creating rhythmic juxtapositions of machines and humans. Associational films suggest meanings through juxtaposed segments without a conventional structure, seen in Bruce Conner's A Movie using found

The document analyzes how effective the combination of a main product and ancillary texts is for a crime action film. It discusses the titles, iconography, character, and target audience across a movie poster, teaser trailer, and magazine cover created to promote the film. The titles used three colors and the same font to create a strong brand identity. Key props like an assault rifle and white mask were featured prominently to fit crime action conventions. The character stayed consistent across products but showed different personas. The target audience was older males who watch action/spy films, in line with action movie standards.

Genre Research
Thrillers aim to provoke suspense and excitement in audiences through mystery, intrigue and confusion. Common conventions include settings in busy urban streets, narratives revolving around an enigma, and themes of violence. Cinematography techniques that build tension include low key lighting, quick cuts between shots, shadows, tense music, and changing camera angles.
Script Ending 1: Lily.
Lily is rushed to the emergency room after a severe head injury. She wakes from a coma a week later with no memory of what happened. She has disturbing visions of events that have not happened yet whenever someone touches her, including witnessing the doctor's death and herself killing her boyfriend Brett.

Their relationship becomes strained as Lily's visions continue and she no longer feels in control of herself.
Genre theory 1
Genre theory helps categorize media texts based on common elements and allows audiences and institutions to identify what they want to consume. There are several key aspects of genres including iconography, narrative structure, representation of characters and stereotypes, and underlying ideologies. However, genre is not static - it is constantly evolving as genres hybridize and borrow from each other, making categorization more difficult over time. While genre theory provides a framework for studying, developing and marketing media, it can also constrain creativity by forcing works to conform to established genres.
Contingency plan
Two orphaned brothers plan to rob a nightclub to prevent the owner from shutting down their children's home to build another club. While committing a crime, their motive is moral as they want to save the home. The film targets men ages 18-34, as it is influenced by the heist film "The Bank Job," and will promote through posters and Empire Magazine.
Hitchcock as Auteur
The document discusses Alfred Hitchcock and the auteur theory. It notes that Hitchcock is considered an auteur due to his command over the thriller/suspense genre and inclusion of themes, symbols and artistic choices across all his films. It then lists some of the key elements that define an auteur, such as unique point of view, control over storytelling techniques, consistent themes and motifs. Specific traits of Hitchcock's films are discussed, like his mastery of suspense, portrayal of complex characters, and exploration of themes like ordinary lives turned upside down and protagonists under investigation.
Genre theory (2012 lesson 2)
This document discusses several theories of genre from film scholars:
- Rick Altman and Jason Mittell suggest that genres offer audiences familiar pleasures and allow them to select media based on prior experience. Genres are also used to market products to audiences.
- David Buckingham argues that genres are constantly evolving through negotiation and change over time, leading to hybrid genres that blend elements.
- Steve Neale notes that genres are processes of systemization that change over time as themes can appear in any genre.

Genre theorists
Lacey considers five elements - setting, character, narrative, iconography, and style - that can be used in combination to identify the genre or genres of a media text. He does not see genres as fixed but as dynamic and changing over time. Lacey provides a framework to analyze genres by breaking down a text and identifying the elements in each of the five areas.
Genre
Here are some potential issues that could be discussed:
- Genres are not fixed categories and there can be overlap between genres
- As genres evolve over time with new films, clear definitions can become blurred
- Some films intentionally mix or subvert genres, challenging typical classifications
- Personal tastes and interpretations of genres may differ between individuals
- Broader social and historical contexts also shape understanding of genres
- Academically analyzing genres risks oversimplifying the complex nature of films
- Commercial interests also influence genre labels applied to films for marketing
- While genres provide a framework, each film has its own unique identity that may not perfectly fit an established genre
So in summary, genres are useful as

Here are some potential issues that could be discussed:
- Genres are not fixed or clearly defined which makes categorization difficult
- Works can combine or mix genres making them hard to classify
- As film styles evolve over time, genres change and blur together
- Audience interpretation of genres may differ from academic/critical views
- Focusing only on surface elements ignores deeper thematic/cultural aspects
- Categorizing by genre risks oversimplifying complex works or creative processes
The genre approach is a useful tool for analysis but has limitations. An open discussion could debate these issues and how genres remain an imperfect but still valuable concept. Different perspectives should be considered.
Genre revision 2012
Genre is an important concept for both media industries and audiences. For distributors and marketers, genre allows them to easily promote, target, and predict audiences for films. Audiences also engage with genre for its familiar conventions that provide expectation, anticipation, and a sense of predictability alongside occasional surprises. Academics study genre as a critical tool to analyze formal similarities and differences between films. While genres provide repetition, they are also dynamic and evolving as elements are challenged over time.
Genre essay q1 b
The document discusses a teaser trailer created for a film called "Casey's Journal" to market it. The genre of the film is identified as a teen drama. Genre theory scholars Rick Altman and Stephen Neale are discussed in relation to how they are applied to the teaser trailer through semantic and syntactic elements. Lacey's framework for analyzing genre which includes setting, characters, narrative, iconography, and style is also mentioned. The conclusion states that genre was used extensively in the marketing of the film through the teaser trailer.
Genre lesson slides sep 2011
Producers, distributors, and audiences all benefit from genre in film. Producers can more easily get funding and write scripts for genre films, which also allows them to predict costs and market films based on familiar genres. Distributors can effectively promote genre films by targeting audiences who expect certain genre conventions. Audiences enjoy genre films because they provide a sense of familiarity and anticipation regarding how conventions will be followed or subverted. However, genres are not clearly defined and often overlap, with some films combining elements of multiple genres.
Laceys repertoire of elements new
This document discusses Nick Lacey's framework for analyzing genre using five key elements: setting, character, narrative, iconography, and style. It then applies this framework to analyze the genre conventions used in the trailer for the film "Walk Amongst the Tombstones" using examples for each of the five elements. Overall, the document finds that conventions like the setting in New York City, the character of Liam Neeson as the protagonist, the nonlinear narrative, symbolic iconography, and fast-paced editing and sound design define the genre as an action thriller.
Nick lacey repertoire additional to question 1
The document discusses the key elements that make up Nick Lacey's filmmaking repertoire: setting, characters, narrative, iconography, and style. It provides examples of each element from an opening film project. The setting is a dark, empty park where something ominous is about to happen. The characters subvert expectations by having the villain defeat the victim, a boy, rather than a girl. The narrative focuses on stalking and attacking the victim with a bottle due to a low budget. Iconography includes a predatory clown preying on a victim afraid of clowns. Style uses low lighting, tension-building shots, and camera angles to relate to the horror genre.

This document discusses the conventions used and challenged in the format, genre, and institutions of a media product. It analyzes how the teaser trailer, poster, and magazine cover follow conventions in their duration, editing style, layout, and use of sound/graphics. The narrative challenges teen crime drama conventions by focusing more on teen life and having a character with split personalities. Settings include both typical school and crime locales. Characters challenge conventions by not being traditionally troubled. Iconography fits conventions of both teen dramas and crime films. The company ident and backing institution are conventional for a low budget British film company producing a unique crime drama.

Locations include an unknown garage where the killer prepares, and an abandoned train track in the woods. Character types and the ordering of opening credits also follow conventions set by films like Halloween and Friday the 13th. While some elements like using a male victim challenge conventions, overall the opening aims to reflect the genre's typical themes and styles.
Intro
There are multiple ways to analyze films, including using Lacey's framework of five elements (setting, character, narrative, iconography, style) to determine a film's genre. Auteur theory can also be used to analyze a director's style and determine if they demonstrate characteristics of an auteur such as consistent themes, innovation, or artistic merit. For example, Martin Scorsese is considered an auteur due to his signature techniques like voiceovers and tracking shots. Film analysts use Lacey's elements to closely examine genres and their conventions. For example, the trailer for "A Walk Among the Tombstones" uses conventions of the action thriller genre like its New York setting and a protagonist on a vigilante

Intro to genre 2012 ppt
Genres provide predictable frameworks that help audiences understand and interpret films. They establish expectations that allow audiences to anticipate what will happen in a film and help producers mass produce films efficiently. Genres originated as an economic necessity for the film industry and became codified over time through repetition. They provide recognizable conventions and elements that allow audiences to easily identify the genre of a film. Captain America uses elements from the action, superhero, and war genres to appeal to audiences familiar with these genres.

- 1. Film Genre Research Create a Popplet to present your findings.
- 2. Genre Nick Lacey uses the following categories when exploring genre. You can use these categories to organise your research: • Setting • Narrative • Characters • Iconography • Style Films of particular genres have recognisable elements that can be explored using the categories above.
- 3. GENRE - Lacey’s repertoire of elements • Narrative: This refers to the story structure as well as the specific narrative devices, which genres employ (car chases, gunfights, weddings, etc.). • Characters: Narrative is usually developed through characters and their functions (hero, villain etc). Some characters are so closely associated with a genre that they become generic types. For example, in horror movies, the ‘final girl,’ who maintains her personal dignity, usually defeats the psychopath. Nick Lacey
- 4. GENRE - Lacey’s repetoire of elements • Setting: Some genres have a distinct location but this can be subject to change, for example horror films have moved from the gothic to the suburban. Genres can also be associated with time periods like the gangster films set during prohibition in America but successful films have updated this. • Iconography: Films contain visual and audio images, which become instantly recognisable and associated with the genre. Eg: Gangster films feature the iconic ‘Tommy’ gun spraying bullets in the hands of a man in a sharp suit usually standing on the running board of a car. Nick Lacey
- 5. GENRE - Lacey’s repetoire of elements • Style: Iconography refers to the objects but style describes the way they are presented. Camera angles, editing, lighting and the use of colour all contribute to the style of a film. Nick Lacey
- 6. TASK: Create a Popplet that shows the conventions of your chosen genre or sub-genre using Lacey’s categories, i.e.
- 7. Here is an example – you should have more detail for some of the categories in your version! Also include film examples.
- 8. • Post your completed Popplet to your journal with a summary of the elements you think you could include in your own marketing campaign.
