Generic Genre Research

We need to research genres for our final project and since we already did a PowerPoint on this genre, we will use it. The genre was western and we did this genre because we randomly drew it out of a hat. We had done this presentation at the beginning of the year before we had done any filming. We will not be using this genre in our final project because it doesn't seem to fit our pitch. The presentation was to give examples of lighting,camera angles, movements, Mis-en-scene, and the elements of the genre. Westerns use lots of natural sunlight, lots of camera movements, and almost all camera angles. Westerns also have a dessert setting, wild west props, and violence.
