Genres of Film

We have decided to use the 'British Social Realist' genre, as a way of furthering our opening sequence, which will also contain some elements of the genre 'ensemble-cast crime caper'. We've decided to embark upon these genres sticking, as our initial ideas, to the british criminal underworld, focusing mainly on drugs. We can manipulate the majority of elements regarding mise en scene, lighting, camerawork from the British Social Realism genre, such as dark, unlit shots, with naturalistic editing, and dark alleyways/dark walls.
