Genre Research: Comedy

 

This powerpoint is on comedy. I did research on a certain genre and that turned out to be comedy. Common lighting found in this genre is high-key lighting. Comedies tend to have extreme close ups and normal angles as well. The lighting in a comedy film would also be potentially brighter as to reflect the mood and to film .

The costume designs in comedy films change.

The acting is goofy and funny. 

The make-up in comedy is more precise and colorful.

 Props in comedy change in accordance to the tone of the film.

 It can vary anywhere from not too bright to not too dark.  

One of the main elements of comedy is exaggeration. Bad boys is very well known comedy film.

I like the sarcasm of comedy. 

The way people react to things is so funny to me.

 The repetition that it brings sometimes though, is a big throw off.

  A common sound found are crickets.

 This sound shows the awkward silence in the room. 

Also, it can sometimes show the dryness of the joke when no one laughs. 

The cricket sound is actually pretty funny though. These ideas right here make up the comedy genre.​​​​​​
