History of Genre

The genre we have chosen is Teen Drama and Crime, we have chosen this because our target audience is young adults and we feel this is a good genre for this generation as it is both interesting for the audience as it supplys them with some typical teen crime but also has a dramatic storyline which the audience will be able to relate to as they are of a simular age to the cast.

Research of Drama Movies:
A drama movie is a movie that depends that depends mostly on in-depth character development, interaction, and highly emotional themes. In a good drama film, the audience are able to experience what other characters are feeling and identify with someone.

This genre could be especially useful by challenging the ignorance from stereotypes or any other overly simplistic generalisations by bringing it down to a more personal and complex level, which is what we are trying to convey our character as. As well, such movies could also be therapeutic by showing how characters cope with their problems, challenges, or issues, and to the extent the viewer can identify with the characters with his or her own world. 

Research of Crime Movies:

Crime stories in this genre often highlight the life of a crime figure or a crime's victim. Or they glorify the rise and fall of a particular criminal, gang, murderer or lawbreakers in personal power struggles or conflict with law and order figures, an underling or competitive colleague, or a rival gang. Headline-grabbing situations, real-life and crime reports have often been used in crime films.
