Dramatic Comedy

   When choosing the type of genre we decided to go with a dramatic comedy since the characters are typically average stereotypes  that infuse with the structure of society. Usually the character's thoughts and actions are in disharmony with society, and often the character has flawed actions. Through dialogue and action the film shows off it's comedic ways, and typically in the end there is a remarkable twist within the character. In our film opening our main character is a typical nerdy guy, who gets bullied, and wishes to become popular like the rest. We want to showcase some sort of twist within our character Frankie who has a secret fame from his You-tube channel.

   Other films that follow the dramatic comedy genre is from the films  Princess Diaries https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85VLGRml9NA  and The Truman Show https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdwuW8n3JYA. In both these films, the main characters are ordinary people that have a certain twist to them. Mia and average girl, finds out her grandmother is a Queen. Different actions follow as she transitions from an average girl to a princess. Truman is an average man from the suburbs, but soon comes to realize his life is controlled on a show. He then looses control trying to be rebellious now to become free from this staged life.
