“Dearest gentle reader,” - Bridgerton
As I progress in my journey, I must take my time and further develop the story I wish to share. Therefore, researching is an essential step of this fun journey. Today, I bring forth some of the research I have been doing these past few days about the two genres I am interested in.
Genre is an important part of any media form due to the different elements that it offers such as creating audience expectations, guiding the story, and creating a certain connection between the film or piece being shown and the audience. Some of my favorite genres are comedy, romance, and action. I love the different aspects of each one and I like certain shows like "The Good Place". However, with this opportunity to try and bring my creative vision to life, I wanted to go out of my comfort zone and try other genres. So, I will be explaining a little bit about the background of drama and sci-fi which are the two genres my group and I are interested in developing.
After all, what is drama and sci-fi in a few words?
This short video truly helped me understand all of the genres specifically drama and sci-fi in just a few words as well as examples of movies that include the genres such as Titanic and Star Wars. Drama often includes emotions, realistic subjects, and intense feelings which are portrayed to the audience. On the other hand, sci-fi contrasts this genre as it is focused on a futuristic and most of the time, not real world.
The genre of drama has different aspects such as the setting, characters, and obstacles. The genre usually shows individuals in their best and worst moments, creating conflict and developing emotions that later resonate with the audiences. The films or TV shows can range from a variety such as being based on real people or it could all be fiction stories. In fact, these films at times include strong messages about the world and society.
