Conventions of the Drama Genre

Dramatic conventions are the specific actions or techniques the actor, writer or director has employed to create a desired dramatic effect or style which is beneficial for research since we could compare this to our opening sequence as we had also utilized specific techniques to employ the dramatic feel to when he wears his black bomber jacket and makes the journey to rendezvous with the gang in the alleyway and specific actions in our opening sequence such as when Nile puts his hoody over his head slowly to add intensity since the viewer could actually think what the main protagonist could be thinking momentarily which is, "Does he really want to do this/Do I really want to do this?" as the camera slowly tilts downwards expressing his casual clothing.
