Conventions of a Rom-Com

 I did some research on the conventions of a Rom-Com. The majority of Rom-Coms have the following conventions;
  • Two protagonist’s, A male that falls in love with the female, sometimes there are two male’s and one female that fight for the love of that female.
  • Romantic Music/Normal Everyday Music
  • Colours: Red/Pink – Represent Love, White represents purity
  • Male character is usually clumsy and falls in love, female character is usually good looking and popular and falls for the clumsy guy half way into the film
  • This often starts with a voiceover with some music along with it introducing the characters
  • Usually based on females point of view
  • Set in urban areas in work places, apartments or even schools
