All films have a genre, this is the style or category that the film comes under. There are obviously many genres of film that I could consider to make my short film using. Because of this, I looked at many different films with different genres to see which one I wanted to use. genre is also to tell people what sort of film it is other than getting into the cinema without knowing what you're going to see. in my real life I like to watch horror films or films with a great story and meaning, therefore I am strongly considering making my short film using one of those styles.

As you can see these are very rough ideas that don't have a lot of context but it helped me to start to think of ideas that I could possibly do for my coursework. I also used an ideas generating pack to come up with a story using some weird categories that don't necessarily fit together. this helped to stretch my imagination.
