Genre Research: Action

-

 - Pan shots and tracking are the most used in action films. This is because it shows what the person is doing or where they are going. For example, them running away. 

- Typical in these types of films, the costumes have tears do to excessive movement. Blood is also used a lot because the character typically has a lot of obstacles or stunts during the movie.

- The editing for this is very fast paced and shows a lot going on at once. 

- There is usually very upbeat and intense music during most scenes. 

- Some examples include: Fast and Furious, The Dark Knight, and Kill Bill.

- The soundtrack of most of these movies is my favorite part about action films. They typically show the main characters comeback or realization.

- One thing I do not like about the genre is that it can be very predictable and has a known plot for most of them. These are usually very unrealistic as well.

So, I feel like most thriller movies show the perspective of the protagonis...

          To film this trailer like we wish my partner, Hayley, and I have to film these shots at several locations. For example, for the scene in Hazel's room where the two girls are developing their "kill list" we plan to use Hayley's room. We will also be using the bulletin board in her room as a prop to make the revenge board. For the scene where Matt Brown is being shoved into the pool, we plan to use Hayley's pool in her backyard. For the scene where Jessica is getting shoved into the road, we plan to safely use the street in her neighborhood. Other scenes such as Aaron walking alone and being followed will also be shot in the same neighborhood. However, for the first opening scene, it is not known specifically where we can shoot this. As time gets closer and we begin production, hopefully this issue will be resolved.     The safety of the film is our top priority. Since, there are a lot of death scenes and dangerous stunts that need to be p...
