Drama - Conventions of the Drama genre

What are the conventions of the drama genre, you may ask? Look below! 

  • Often drama films portray journeys of character development.
  • Intense social interaction.
  • Exhibits life-like situations with relatable characters, settings and story lines.
  • Aims to move the audience emotionally.
  • The heart of drama is conflict. Break ups and arguments are common.
  • Drama pieces are structured with climaxes and anti-climaxes to keep the audience emotionally attached and the tension on going.
  • There is always a form of realisation at the end. For example, a couple might fall out and they get back together. A really creative example there.
