Genre

Our idea's:

Horror
Romance
Sci-fi
Action/Adventure

We set out when planning our film extract to create/use a genre that isn't typical of Media/Film Students, originally we wanted to avoid Horror, Thriller and Horrible cheesy mockumantaries. We decided that if we were careful we could avoid the typical horror by creating a psychological horror. We went from there...

We decided against Romance because to be honest neither of us really would enjoy the project or have a really original idea if we used the romantic genre, we also felt the same for action/adventure

For Sci-fi we felt there was too much room for error, the special effects that would have to be involved would be to complex for a short Film Student project, plus it would be bashed for realism of story etc etc etc
