How typical is Fish Tank of its genre?
My first text that I have studied is 'Fish Tank', the genre of this film is Social Realism and conforms to the vast majority of its generic conventions. The purpose of a Social Realism film is to give the audience an insight into the life of the underclass and how they are represented. Social Realism has a niche audience as the genre of film is very independent and subvert to the typical Hollywood blockbuster film. There are many conventions which classify a social realism film ...
Technically the first convention which is present in the clip is the diegetic sound of the dog barking. This conforms to the conventions of a social realism film as it makes it seem more realistic to the audience. Another technical convention is the shallow depth of field.
