Camera angles and movement in the drama genre

The drama genre does not strictly stick to one use of camera angles and movement. The genre allows for a wide variety of shots in order to create meaning and juxtaposition of thoughts and feelings as the narrative of the film progresses. Shots such as: close ups, point of views, eye line match, long shots and mid shots can all be used creating a wider range of potential shots in order to create meaning within the film. Tarantino uses a unique style in order to create his instantly recognisable films within the drama genre as it is a genre which allows for own specific adaptation and style. For example this scene in 'Pulp Fiction' the shot reverse shot used at the end of the film when the gun shots are going off contrasts to the fairly slow pace of the rest of the scene , as well as the colour scheme therefore creating a unique style to Tarantinos work. This therefore leads our group to the decision that rather than focusing solely on a unique range of shots we would put emphasis on the dialogue, specifically the overlapping parts in order to create a unique style.
