Romance Conventions

There are many typical conventions used within a romance film/trailer. I want to research further into this so I can find out what we need to include within our trailer in order for our trailer to be a successful romance story.

  As you can see we have included many of these in our film trailer already allowing us to portray our idea clearly to the audience. I think we will do this successfully however ours has a twist in it which I think will work really well and will make the audience really interested whilst watching our film. I am now going to look at some different shots we could use within our trailer to make it look as professional as possible:

This shot is really good you can see them for a side angle, which looks really effective the shot also looks really natural, which adds a really romantic and intimate effect; the lighting is also really great in this shot, i think it adds a really dramatic look to the shot which creates a really strong shot when creating our trailer we will have to take our lighting into consideration. 

This is a shot that enforces the genre of the film and creates a really emotional shot. I think when we are creating our trailer we will have to create a scene of them kissing as it will make our trailer really professional and show the chemistry between the two characters.

This is a really beautiful shot I think it looks really effective the way they are looking into each others eyes you can see how much they are in love which looks really cute. The background is also very interesting in this shot as is a blurred lighting effect called bokeh, this looks really effective as it makes them the main focal point in the shot and people are focusing on them and not what is in the background I think this is a really clever shot and works really well. 

I really like this shot as well, as you can see the male character is taking a picture of her, i think this looks good as it doesn't look like they are in a film it looks like them in everyday life, I think that home videos would look really effective in our trailer, and it also gives the audience a different perspective. 

Taking all of these shots into consideration I think we have a good lot of research to start creating our storyboard. I think this will help us when creating our film trailer as it has given us a variety of different shots that we could use and what we will need to portray our narrative to the audience effectively.
