Intro:
The romantic comedy genre is popular as it attracts a lot of female audiences. Notting Hill and My Best friends Wedding are good examples of romantic comedy as they are both very humorous and also represent romance in a decent way. The topics that will be talked about are Mise-en-scene, Cinematography and Sound and Editing. These films make use of Mise-en-scene to make the audience feel as if they are there with the characters. The Genre romantic comedy is types of movies with light-hearted, humorous plotlines, centered on romantic ideals such as a true love able to surmount most obstacles. Romantic comedy films are a sub-genre of comedy films as well as of romance films and often have elements of screwball comedies and stoner comedies. Romantic comedy can also be used to describe some television series. Both the films include a man and a woman with some sort of connection to each other and in the end become close friends or partners. Both movies include humor within the romance and also they both include an argument, which leads to the woman and the man to have a separation from each other.

Paragraph one:
The scene that I am doing from the movie Notting Hill, is when they are sitting at dinner and they are talking about who gets the last piece of the brownie. The scene I chose from My Best friends Wedding is when all the important people that are included in the wedding are at lunch, but with the main actresses friend. This scene includes singing and many other things. The differences between the lighting in both scenes is that the Notting Hill scene is shot at night so obviously the lights are on so its very bright and the scene from My Best friends Wedding is shot during the day, so the lighting is normal with no extra lighting. The differences between the sound in both scenes are very different. This is because the scene in Notting Hill is quiet and the scene in My Best friends Wedding is very loud. The scene in Notting Hill is quiet because the characters are at home and they are not having loud discussions. The only time the sound gets loud in this scene is when the characters laugh. The scene from My Best friends Wedding is different because they are at lunch with a lot of people. The scene is in a hall kind of place. The characters in the scene also sing a song very loud. Which makes the scene different from the scene from Notting Hill.
