genre research - mystery

 One of the genres that interest me is mystery. I did some research to see what elements I should put in my film to give it that feel. Some common camera angles in the mystery genre would be birds eye view, close up, pan and reverse shots. Mystery movies are also known for having dark like scenes and setting to give it that feel. As well as using minimal makeup to give the actors a relatable look, so we can relate more to them. They often also include weapons as props such as knifes and guns. Non diegetic sounds are used in the editing of the movie to give it the mysterious feel. They use like eerie sounds to build suspense. Some mystery films are Parasite, Shutter Island and Scream. The thing I like about this genre is that you sometimes never know what will happen next it keeps you wondering what the next scene will be like.  I really enjoy films that are like that. I like the suspense that the sound used in the film gives the viewer. There's nothing that I dislike about the genre due to the elements probably the camera angles because some might be hard to do.
