Genre Research- Drama

    Common Camera angles in drama films are Low angles, High angles, Over the shoulder, and eye level angles. Many drama films use pan, zoom, and dolly for their camera movements. For shots in drama films they sue close up shots, long shots, one shot, two shot, and three shot, also many use POV shots to give a more dramatic feeling to the movie. Common sounds in drama films are both diegetic and nondiegetic sounds. They use one more than the other which is diegetic sound. Drama films include a lot of talking, and many sounds such as walking, ripping paper, gasping. All sounds from the actors in the film. For costumes in drama films, they use normal clothing but sometimes certain scenes are dramatically changed by one person. For example in a room with people wearing all black one person walked in wearing white. They use different costumes each scene. For makeup it all depends how dramatic a film is. It could be simple but it could also be heavy. Lighting is mostly lowkey and highkey lighting. Always focusing on one thing more than others, all through lighting. For props there are many pros being used, all depending on the actors and their roles. Common editing in drama films are eyeline match, montage, fade, cross dissolve, and POV editing. Some example of films in the drama genre are Judy, Bombshell, Just Mercy and Moonlight. Elements i like about this genre are the editing and the actors and props. They all make up the whole film. It creates the concept of it being a drama film. It creates the dramatic feel of the whole movie. Elements i don't like about the drama genre is the makeup. Depending on the movie it doesn't really have an affect on what the movie is.
