Genre and classification
Genre refers to the categories that films can be divided into, such as horror, romance, comedy, science fiction, and westerns. Genre is important because it makes it easier to classify and market films, helps production companies find funding by appealing to established genres, and allows audiences to anticipate a film's content based on its genre. Key conventions of genres like horror include dark lighting, old settings, gore, ghosts, hauntings, and death, while westerns commonly feature cowboys, Native Americans, gun fights, horses, and specific clothing. Science fiction films often contain aliens, futuristic settings, metallic clothing, advanced technology, and space.
Genre theory monday 2014
This document discusses genre theory and definitions of genre. It provides perspectives from several theorists on what constitutes a genre and how genres function. Daniel Chandler defines genres based on shared conventions of content, themes and settings. Steve Neale views genres as instances of repetition and difference that provide pleasure to audiences. Genres are seen as dynamic and constantly changing rather than fixed forms. The document also discusses genre hybridization and provides examples of how genres develop over time from experimental to classic to parody to deconstruction. It examines genres as providing structure, expectations and pleasure for both audiences and producers.
Main influences
The document discusses the influences for the opening of a horror film. It will take elements from "Women in Black" including nursery rhyme music during children scenes, vintage costumes, and creating a fear of the unknown. It will also be influenced by the dark lighting, quick cuts, title style and speed, and inclusion of a book/diary from "Se7en." Additionally, it will follow the same title order and fading/flickering style as "American Horror Story."

Conventions for each subgenre are provided, including familiar characters, cliffhangers, and points of interaction for soap operas and examples for each subgenre.

Bwark Productions is a UK comedy production company known for the hit E4 series The Inbetweeners. They produced the movie spin-off of the series, which had a $3.5 million budget. Though it only earned $36,000 domestically, it was a huge worldwide success with $86 million in international box office earnings.

Genre and classifications
Genre is an important way to categorize films based on similarities. It helps the film industry with marketing by identifying audience interest in particular genres. It also helps audiences understand what to expect from a film based on its genre. Each genre has common conventions - for example, horror films often feature dark settings, old houses, death, blood, and screaming. Romance films commonly include flowers, love letters, and upbeat music. Proper classification of films by genre benefits both the industry and viewers.
