Genre Research: Comedy

  •  The common camera angles used in the comedy genre are wide angle, zoom, medium shot, long shot, tracking shot, close-up, medium close-up, and two/three shots.
  • Common costumes, lighting, makeup, props, and sets used in the comedy genre are high-key lightening helps create a cheerful mood, casual clothing, simple make-up or extreme (depending on the comedy), acting is dramatic uses humor, has set in a different location and uses props it varies what they are between the storyline.
  • Common editing in the comedy genre is the fade-in transition, fade-out transition, insert, shot/reverse shot, action match, and eye-line match.
  • Examples of comedy films are Elf, Christmas with the Kranks, The Out-Laws, and Puppy Love.
  • Elements of the genre I like is the acting. The acting is fun to watch because it makes me laugh and is entertaining to watch.
  • Elements of the genre that did not appeal to me was the editing. Comedies have a lot of different angles used which can be overwhelming and a little too much for the viewers.

I went into CapCut to fix these by increasing the volume on the parts where the main character is speaking.
