    What is genre?
    Comes from the French word
    meaning ‘Type’ or ‘Class’

    Can be recognized by its common


    set of distinguishing features
    (CODES and CONVENTIONS)
    The primary genres that media creators and
    producers invoke are the following:
     1. News
     2. Entertainment
     A. Action Movies
     B. Adventure Movies

     D. Drama
     E. Horror Film
     F. Romance Movies

    TYPES OF
    CODES

    TECHNICAL WRITTEN

    SYMBOLIC
    TECHNICAL CODES
     Ways in which equipment
    is used to tell the story
    (camera techniques,
    framing, depth of fields,
    lighting and etc. )
    SYMBOLIC CODES
     Show what is beneath the
    surface of what we see
    (objects, setting body
    language, clothing, colors,
    etc.) or iconic symbols that
    are easily understood.
    WRITTEN CODES
     Use of language style and
    textual layout (headlines,
    captions, speech bubbles,
    language style, etc. )
    CONVENTIONS
    Are the generally
    accepted ways of
    doing something.
    Example of Form Convention
     Form conventions are the certain ways we
    expect types of media's codes to be arranged.
    For instance an audience expects to have a title
    of the film at the beginning, and then credits
    at the end. Newspapers will have a masthead,
    the most important news on the front page and
    sports news on the back page.
    Example of Story Convention
     Story conventions are common narrative structures and
    understandings that are common in story telling media
    products. Examples of story conventions include:
    Narrative structures. Cause and effect. Character
    construction.

    What are the conventions of the short story?


     They are true masters at combining the five key elements
    that go into every great short story: character, setting,
    conflict, plot and theme.
    Example of Genre Convention
     What are the genre conventions?
     You will do this by considering its main features, known as
    genre conventions. These conventions include themes, setting,
    characters, plotlines, narrative structure, mood, props or
    significant objects.

     Horror uses unique and unusual angles to create confusion


    and unsettling feel with the viewer. The lighting tends to be
    dark, underexposed with lots of shadows, making the audience
    feel tense and on edge. Furthermore, the use of sound, such as a
    high pitch key, creates a sense of alarm with the audience
    3. How did this scene convince the audience that it is possible
    for the actors to survive?
