Camera, Editing and Sound in Romantic Comedies
CAMERA
The final shot is usually of the couple in the
centre.
The opening of rom-coms would usually involve close up
shots of different elements related to each character so
that the audience get an idea about the characters before they are known well to the
audience.
EDITING Romantic Comedies are usually a
slow pace to give the effect of turning a page in a fairy tale.
The editing usually favours the woman and the film is
seen from her point of view.
A lot of Romantic Comedies include makeover scenes.
These tend to be fast editing.
SOUNDRomantic Comedies often start with
a voiceover explaining the characters and their situation.
The script will usually include sexual innuendoes.
There is normally non diegetic music in rom-coms. Many songs used are in the
charts, soundtracks will often be available.
