Welcome to my As level Media studies blog. Throughout the year I will blog the progress and the new things I lear.
Here is something i have already learnt.

There are different types of genre that a film may be, examples of different types of genre are- horror, musicals, thrillers and science fiction.

horror films- scream, insidious, mama and conjuring
musicals- high school musical, mama Mia, hairspray and grease.
comedies- grown ups, were the millers. hangover, knocked up.

However some movies have mixed genre, this means they may have ore than one genre for example the scary movie sequels have more the one they have a comedy element and a scary element. Mixed genre allow directors to play more with story lines with out worrying about the genre clashing. The Hunger Games is an example of a film with many different genre, it is not able to be put into one category it is a si-fi/thriller/adventure movie.
