Genre Research: Star Wars The Force Awakens

     Most adventure films are big-budget and very showy. Which is why I landed on this as my next film to analyze. The first category I'm going to analyze is the camera angles, movements, and shots. Common camera angles included were long and aerial shots. This came when filming Rey on Tatooine. Common camera movements were pans and zooms. For example when they had the flying scenes. Common camera shots from the filming were long shots. These came when they had to establish the atmosphere of a location.

     The second category to analyze is common Mis-en-scene. Costumes were very important in the film. this is because of all the new characters and already established characters. Lighting in the film was also very important to establish the atmosphere. For example when Kylo Ren encounters Han Solo on the catwalk. Actors in the film was also an important aspect. This is because there were a lot of returning characters. Makeup was another important aspect of the film. At least when they weren't using CGI. Props also played a huge role. This world had already established paraphernalia. 

     The common sound of the film was mostly non-diegetic. This is because it had to be added in. The common editing of the film was cross-cutting. This is because so many worlds needed to be established. An element of the film was the rich world. The elements I liked were the lore and the story of the world. The element I disliked was the extended action.
