Genre decision

 We have researched three main types of genres for this movie. Before our research, we had already had an idea of which genre we would choose. We had sort of picked out drama as an ideal genre. However, after extensive research, we as a group have changed our minds. Instead of choosing the drama genre, we think our two minute scene would be better suited in the thriller genre. While there were drawbacks to this genre, such as it usually involving gore, we decided that we can find a way around that. And although the stereotypes generally portrayed in this genre for women are not positive, we are the directors and are in charge. We can change the story line to make those stereotypes non-existent. Also, there are many appealing things to this genre. Our whole group wanted to have an exciting plot. Through the use of a thriller genre, this is possible. Also, the music in thriller genre is generally pretty uniform. In most thrillers, there is scary classical music with high pitched sounds,  There is obviously an abundance of classical music to choose from. And also, most classical music composers have passed, so gaining rights to use classical music should not be hard. Another reason we chose the thriller genre is because of the acting. In thrillers, there is not much complicated and deep acting. It is more just building suspense. However in genres like drama, it is different. There must be many elements in the acting, and actors must be able to portray deep emotions. While we are good at putting together film, our group is not necessarily fantastic actors and bad acting would make the scene unprofessional. Overall, we had an original idea of a genre, and then after more researched switched our decision to a better one for our group. Get ready to be thrilled!
