Genre Analysis

The genre of my production is action, the film is about a scam artist who gets in trouble with the wrong people. I would recognise this as an action film instantly as the trailer includes the conventions of an action film such as fight scenes and car crashes. The film conforms to the genre of action films as it follows in the footsteps other actions films such as the James Bond film series and other action films which also follow the action film genre. Bankroll adheres to the action film genre as the film has fast cuts and dramatic fast paced music which builds up the tension for the viewers and leaves them intrigued and wondering about the film as to who the villain is and whether the protaganist escapes unscathed. Bankroll esthablished the genre by simply adering to the action film conventions, it happens in the trailer when are fast cutting fight scenes throughout the duration of the trailer. The Mise-en-scene of the trailer supports the genre of the film. The way in which our characters are dressed suits the genre with our protagonist wearing smart shirts and suits which follows many other action films with the main character looking dressed to impress. The props include a gun which also would adhere to the conventions of an action film, there are a huge number of films where there is a weapon included. Almost every action film will include the use of a fire arm, the film is instantly recognised as an action film due to the use of a fire arm. All of these elements will appeal to out audience as they are keen to see the conventions to fufill their needs of the action film they are going to watch. If an audience is going to view an action movie they will always want to see fights, guns and car crashes, Bankroll fufills all of those needs for our target audience.
