Genre research

Today we were doing further research into what our genre and film plot usually includes.

A heist film usually consists of 3 acts, which include; a briefing of preparation and planning, the heist itself and finally the outcome of the heist. Due to this we are including clear but brief reflections of each act within our film opening to maximise the clarity of our genre.

Also, a heist film includes characters with a clear identity, this can be down to their personality costume or skill.

Finally, a heist film will usually include a mode of transport to and from the location of the heist, props such as guns and robbery tools. Throughout a heist fil there is a clear reflection o the characters living outside the law.


We ensured that we had included the comedy aspect of our film opening by adding clear flaws to the planning scenes, the randomness of the props and skill level difference. In order the effectively do this we analysed films such as “Central Intelligence” and “21/22 Jump Street”.
