Genre decision blog

     Hey blog!  it’s me again!now that in the previous blogs, three genres were talked about, these genres were action, thriller, and finally mystery. Although all of the genres are good one stands out the most. The group has decided that the genre for the final task will be mystery. The reason the group chose this genre is that the pitch was two people in a mirror maze facing death, they are being searched by a killer so it is very strange to see that. Not knowing who the killer is makes the audience curious and puzzled about who the killer is and that is why the killer is chasing the two friends. It was a close call with mystery and thriller but having curiosity and trying to figure out who the killer is, leans more into the mystery genre so that is what the final decision was. In this genre there are high-angle shots, low-angle shots, and long shots are common in mystery movies. Common camera movements would be, long tracking shots and tight tracking shots. Common shots would be, Close-ups, medium shots, and wide shots.Common Mis-En-Scenes would be foreboding settings like mysterious environments, such as dark woods, abandoned buildings, and secluded mansions. Red herrings like misleading clues and false suspects. Characters with secrets, such as dark pasts, hidden motives, and hidden identities. A twist ending is often used to maintain audience interest.Common editing would be jump cuts, flash cuts, cross dissolves, low motion, and montage sequences.Common sounds would be Tension-building sounds,  such as eerie music, atmospheric sound effects, and quiet moments of silence. The use of silence can be very effective in creating a sense of tension and uncertainty.
