Generic codes and Conventions of Romance

Romance films are often different to horror films in terms of mise en scene and are generally well lit and very calm in terms of camera work (no rushing and single shots, not alot of hand held shakey shots as they are used to build up tension and make the audience feel uneasy which is not needed for romance) The genre usally has two main charaters: A girl and A boy, which are eaither together or are together by then end and the whole film is about how they get toegether.
