+Sound (Music)
Upbeat guitar music plays in the background of the trailer and then the crisp of the sound becomes more clear when the guitar man is shown on screen.
The music escalates louder when Hazel goes in to kiss Gus, emphasising the romantic moment being shared.
Usually in romance movies, the music that’s played during sad scenes would be extremely emotional tunes or well known songs that the audience have heard before so they feel more connection towards the scene they’re watching. This type of music is also used during positive moments for instance, part of this trailer. If That’s What You Wanted by One Republic is played which I’m sure many audiences have heard before.
The Fault In Our Stars
Sound sets the mood of a movie, and therefore
romantic films need a positive
lovey tune.
+ Setting
This is a cinema/theatre sign that appeared in the film opening The Vow. Cinemas/theatres are places that couples go to to watch new movies together, therefore this setting portrays a romance feel.
In this scene, a wedding is being portrayed through the woman and male facing each other in smart/glamorous outfits. This scene fits the title of the film The Vow.The setting is key in a romance movie as most setting shared
between a couple is based around their houses or places they spend
days out together.
The Vow
+ PropsA prop used in this trailer is a boat
to demonstrate the romantic event that the couple are sharing on a tranquil bed of water. Them both being in the water gives the impression that they’ve fallen in
which in their eyes would be funny, so the audience can see
that their love is like a friendship; fun and easy going, the best type
of love.
The Noteboo
k
Love letters are usually associated with a long distance relationship, which is one that occurred in The Notebook. It’s a prop that illustrates a traditional old romanticist which has a lot more meaning than a text message.
Props allow an audience to
gather a better understanding
of the characters’ relationship.
The props like the boat and love letters used in The
Notebook tell the audience
the couple are both very romantic.
+ Costume
One Day
The costume the characters are wearing here is quite old fashioned but trendy; suspenders and patterned dresses. The uniqueness
of their outfits portrays how their love could be quite old fashioned but wonderful.
Costume can contribute to the age of the characters that the
audience firstly assume. A male always wearing suits and shirts would convey him as being a sophisticated mature adult,
whereas if he were to wear jeans and tops and jackets instead of blazers it would portray him as being a younger boy perhaps in
late teens/early twenties.
Emma is demonstrated here as being quite a quirky and unique individual with her furred hood, floral top, pendant necklace, hoop earrings and circle framed glasses. From her costume I gather the impression of her character as being old school and interesting.
+ Stock Characters
You usually get a ditsy female who’s clumsy yet has a big heart. She’ll play the main character along with the guy she falls in love with.
A handsome man with a humorous
personality who’s extremely caring to make all the girls who’s watching the movie drool, is always featured in
a romance movie. Yum.
The main character, whether that be a
boy or a girl, always has a best friend
either at the beginning or through the
duration of the movie.
Stock characters are the typical types of characters that you’d find in a certain movie. In a romance
movie, the types of characters you find are a father figure, a best
friend, and the personality of the romance couple. These have all
been demonstrated.
The father figure who influences the main character’s decisions above their love life.
