Genre research

 In our previous blog, we decided on our pitch. The pitch we decided on is a group of teenagers hears a strange noise coming from under the house when they investigate suddenly they start to go missing one by one. There are three genres this pitch could go under; horror, drama, and thriller. For horror, we can focus more on scaring the audience. This would go well with this pitch because it would allow for cool camera angles and action shots. It is also a faster pace. I like to make faster-paced movies. Another option is drama. This would shift focus more on the relationship between characters. This would be something new for me and an interesting take on the pitch. It would also be a slower pace film in comparison to horror and thriller. Our final option is a thriller. Thriller is a great option because it gives viewers feelings of suspense, excitement, surprise, and anticipation. The pitch should naturally give these feelings. Pace wise, it is in between the two previous genres. It is not as fast-paced as horror nor, as slow as drama.  It would also allow for a faster pace movie which I prefer making. The next three blogs will be a breakdown of each of the genres. This research will allow us to make a better decision on what genre will be best. I think they are all good options.
