Film & Media Studies | Introduction to Film Genre, Part 1 @filmandmediastudieschannel | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 8 hours ago
This video is the first of a series that examines film genre as a topic of study. The video examines the definition of genre, the different components of film genre, the functions of film genre, and various strategies for employing genre in film analysis.
Some of the animations and ideas in this video were borrowed from this video - youtu.be/U9dawPw_jqk - which begins with an excellent analysis of genre.
Clips about the "manic pixie dream girl" trope were excerpted from this video by The Take - youtu.be/b_gxo8l9j8s - which provides a much more in-depth discussion of the trope, its history, as well as some of its shortcomings that had resulted from its overuse.
