Writing the Story and Picking the Genre.
GENRE
Elias and I have decided to make our projects genre comedy/action. We chose this genre because we felt like it would be really fun to work on, and it matches the story we came up with pretty well. We were inspired by some movies that Kevin Hart starred in like Central Intelligence and The Man From Toronto where the main goal is to make an action film, with some funny moments to not make the movie too serious. We will try to have a combination of films like those and the movie Baby Driver.
CHARACTERISTICS OF AN ACTION FILM
An action film is composed of exciting stunts, danger, and usually have a protagonist that overcomes an evil. Action movies require at least some realism to make the viewer think that it is actually possible, unless the theme is supposed to be unrealistic.
WHAT MAKES A GOOD ACTION MOVIE?
The most important part of an action film is the actors and the pace of the movie. If the movie is low paced, it lowers the intensity of the movie, making the movie uninteresting and overall poor. The choice of actors is also very important because if there is an actor that doesn’t look intimidating or isn't very good, the overall look of the film will be bad.
CHARACTERISTICS OF A COMEDY FILM
Characteristics of a comedy movie include unlikely situations, lucky(or unlucky) characters, and more often than not, wordplay. Often times, a comedy movie includes two or more characters that are pretty much opposites and require them to be/work together for the film.
WHAT MAKES A GOOD COMEDY MOVIE?
The most important part of a comedy movie is the script. If the script is not funny and it is supposed to be a comedic movie, it will fail. The coincidences that apply to most comedy movies should also be at least a bit believable, to make the audience laugh and think that it could theoretically happen in real life. The sound effects also really impact the quality of a comedy movie, with some requiring some exaggerated sound effects and others not so much.
