Action genre research

A few assignments back, my team and I were assigned a project that had us make a PowerPoint in relation to a random genre. We were assigned the action genre which we felt pretty lucky to get. We felt that together we can make a good looking PowerPoint and get reliable information since the genre is so common. We made sure to include pictures throughout that came from well-known action movies like Fast & Furious and John Wick. Another thing we did was watch a few short clips to get a sort of idea of an action film and what’s in it. Our PowerPoint focused on not only the genre itself but also the different camera angles and movements used when making this sort of film. Clamps was an acronym that we stuck to which helped to organize our slides when talking on costumes, lighting, actors, make-up, props, and setting. This was very important because most action films have these things in common. Finally, we added some slides that had more info on action films and their history. Our class is now referring back to this PowerPoint which proves its usefulness even past its due date.
