3 introductions of romantic comedies


FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS
Two people, one girl, one boy designated to be together. The movie starts with him at work very dedicated but the quick movements shows that he is in a rush , there’s mid-shots to show to the audience his face and long shot to show the guys faces that are working there. A happy music sound at the background to make the audience feel the moment, diagetic sound when the phone rings, mid shots to show the conversation trough the phone between two people , they seem that they are talking the same conversation , there’s mid-shot cuts in every sentence that one of them says finishing the sentence that one starts , seems that they are having the same conversation as a couple but they don’t , when the conversation trough the phone finishes they both were talking to different persons. This makes the audience think that something is going to happened between both of them in this romantic comedy , and this excites the audience.





NO STRINGS ATTACHED
Music is fast , ‘I wanna sex you up’ sexual song. Titles explain that it set 15 years ago far the two characters. Goes to two people a boy and a girl which seems that they like each other sitting talking about the family problems that the guy has and ending up in sexual conversation which the girl doesn’t want (too young). Cuts 5 years ago when the same couple is in uni, establishing shot of some house, mid and close-shots of people dancing/drinking, rap music. The guy recognises the girl in a normal pyjama was the same girl as 10 years ago. This gives to the audience the idea that this two guys are meant to be together even of the time.







THE PROPOSAL

Fast upbeat music, Establishing shot of a forest and the camera is making the audience feel like that are walking through. Zoom out to mid shot of women exercising on a treadmill watching it on there , cut to mid-shot of man walking up and realising he is late for work so is rushing , east shot of him running through the sheets and going into a coffee shop.
The story is about a cold women that is the executive editor in chief of a book publishing company and she is really cold and no one likes her , she doesn’t have her visa so that’s why she tried to convince her assistant to marry her , a romantic comedy movie that ends in a real love.
