Type of Movie/Conventions

 The type of movie I am trying to create is a movie that will grab my viewers attention but at the same time make sure they understand what exactly it is I am trying to get across. I want to create a romantic drama genre film with a story line that everyone will get and comprehend well enough. Personally I enjoy a really good drama film with alogside something that makes viewers not know what to expect next. Although I am aware that not everyone enjoys the same thing I still intend on making this film enjoyable for everyone. While in the process of making this film, I would be aware that this will not go over the required time of 2 minutes.

Some of the most common themes of a romantic drama are love at first sight, forbidden love, or even a tragic love. Personally, I would like to create a tragic love romantic drama. I recently just came up with an idea that I think will be really good. Most importantly I am really interested in my idea and am very excited to see how it turns out. The most typical soundtrack, also referred to as music, is a piano that can go from a sad tone to a upbeat and cheerfulness tone. The sound goes well with the details of the film because it adds a different level of meaning to the film aside from everything else. When referring to the characters of a romantic drama there is a various amount. The most seen type of characters as seen per popular romantic dramas are a male and female who are the lead characters. The two are what the film mostly focus on as the filmmaker takes us through the journey and story behind these two relationships. Another type of main character in these types of films are the friends and family of both main characters. The emotions and actions of these characters may be crucial in the event of things and are always signiicant in some sort of way. But most importantly, they add on another sense of drama even if it's through their body language or the types of dialouge they have throughout the film. It also depends the relationship they have between theirsleves and the main character(s).

Distribution

Distribution is the way in which something is shared out among a group or spread over an area. The promotion (also referred to as distribution) of company's film to the general public is the known job that a distribution company handles. Marketing is something in regards to the specific types of activities a company does to facilitate the sale of a product/service. A business may use a variety of techniques to promote their new film in any way possible. One example of said marketing ideas is merchandising. Merchandising is where a company sells its branded items in order to gain more promotion for the specific film. A company may also use a film festival or even cross promotion. This is basically another type of marketing idea in which the promotion of a similar product is directed at the customers of another product.  An innumerable amount things happens during the distribution stage of a film.

Production

 Before I start to talk about everything in regards to production, I have to start from the beginning and define the basic terms. Also I want to note that there will be a second part to the production stage.  Starting with defining the terms production, studio, representation, and streotype. Production is the process of or financial/administrative management involving the creation of a film/movie. A studio is basically a room where the production company uses to record television, make films, etc. The portrayal of someone/something in a particular way is known as representation. A stereotype is essentially a fixed idea of a person or thing. A common question asked about movies is what category they fall in. By category I mean are they either a business, art or apart of entertainment. It is sort of obvious on why and how people make the common mistake of not knowing. What most people don't understand is that film (or movies) are apart of an industry, by this a better explanation wou

Script

This was probably the start of where things started to get really stressful for me. From having to research every bit of information to making sure that I have is down to detail.  For research specifically, it wasn't really much considering the fact that I was provided with many examples. I basically just looked over the past blogs and what certain approach they decided to take. Alongside with this, I searched up the average scripts for romantic dramas considering the fact that it is the drama that I decided to choose.  When actually sitting down and typing away as I wrote the script for my film project, I realized that it wasn't as bad as I though it was going to be. Even way before we started the project I was reviewing over the pace chart and I said to myself "yep. that is exactly where I'm going to be caught up and stuck on." I have a hard time asking for help and I tend to overthink a lot. So when I actually started to plan out how I wanted this to work out i
