•Codes and conventions on genres
•The 3 genres that we will focus on and play around with, will be romance, comedy and action.
•We will primarily chose 1 and use the other 2 as sub genres to go into the trailer.

Comedy
•A film whose main purpose is to amuse and induce laughter, comedy deals with the preposterous and absurd aspects of human behaviour with a sense of humour. The comedy is usually meant to make the viewer feel good, projecting the foibles of characters onto the screen for the audience to use as scapegoat for the ridiculousness of life. Always a hugely popular genre, there are many types of screen comedy.
•Comedy in films can also be an effective way of commenting on aspects of society, examining hypocrisies by showing how absurd they are (Dr. Strangelove, for example, makes fun of the arms race and the Cold War by exposing how world leaders act like bullies in a playground sandbox); some comedy, such as the black comedy, seeks to deal with the painful aspects of life in such a way that the humour not readily apparent in such things as Nazism or racism is used to diffuse the horror surrounding it. Even if a comedy is meant to disturb (such as the media satire Man Bites Dog), its primary goal, regardless of happy ending or likable characters, is to look at all things with a sense of humour
•Conventions for comedy; sarcasm, clumsy funny,

Romance
•Modern usage of term "romance" usually refer to the romance novel, which is a subgenre that focuses on the relationship and romantic love between two people; these novels must have an "emotionally satisfying and optimistic ending.
•Despite the popularity of this popular meaning of Romance, other works are still, occasionally, referred to as romances because of their uses of other elements descended from the medieval romance, or from the Romantic movement: larger-than-life heroes and heroines, drama and adventure, marvels that may become fantastic, themes of honour and loyalty, or fairy-tale-like stories and story settings. Shakespeare's later comedies, such as The Tempest or The Winter's Tale are sometimes called his romances.
•Modern works may differentiate from love-story as romance into different genres, such as planetary romance or Ruritanian romance.
•Conventions for romance which we could use; cheesy romance, old fashioned, dominant male with feminine female.

Action
A movie featuring mainly action, in which the plot moves quickly from one dramatic event to another. which typically involves good characters combating evil ones showing character development and love interest are of secondary or no importance.
•Elements of action genre; They almost always have a resourceful hero(ine) struggling against incredible odds, life-threatening circumstances, or an evil villain, and/or trapped or chasing each other in various modes of transportation (bus, auto, ship, train, plane, horseback, on foot, etc.), with victory or resolution attained by the end after strenuous physical feats and violence (fist fights, gunplay). Action films have traditionally been aimed at male audiences, ages 13 to the mid-30s in both American and world-wide markets.
•Over the decades, the core action film genre has spawned numerous subgenres. Many films now combine one or more of these subgenres for deeper subtext, and great opportunity to blow things up.
•Each of the subgenres features the core action elements of the strong hero and the exciting effects, but it also has a more specific focus so that you know going in how it's likely to end.
•Conventions – fast paced, technical fights, quick shots,
