Today, we were given a camera and four movie genres to display specific movie images. With the use of setting, characters and theme we managed to show a wide range of movie types in our photographs. I also used Photoshop to edit the photos.
1. Romance - Here we have a romantic scene involving two people holding hands. This really sets the scene that there is a romantic relationship going on in the photograph. The use of a monochrome filter could also represent that there is cold and darkness within their relationship and it needs to be overcome perhaps in the duration of the film.
2. Animation - Our second selection involves an animation scene, we are trying to show a range of superheroes on their way to battle. The colour is a good way to show that the scene is animated as they are vibrant and bright, which cartoons generally hold. However, I feel as if the photo is slightly more generalised and it may be hard to spot the genre.
3. Sci-Fi - Our third choice involves a scene of aliens trying to find there way around the area. I used editing skills here to change the colour of the faces to make them more green so that they represent a scene of aliens. This makes the genre a lot more easier to spot as aliens tend to be stereotypically green in skin colour.
4. Fantasy - Our final genre we picked out was fantasy. Here I have used editing skills to add in the blood covered sword and the unicorn horn to give it more of a mythical look. This means that more people will be able to identify the genre easier. As an alternative option, I could have added more mythological creatures like dragons to make the image look more like a fantasy genre. It may be hard to guess the setting and atmosphere of this photograph.
