Choosing A Genre

To help us decide what genre to choose we analysed a few genres, we brainstormed each genre making note of the common conventions of each one. This will allow us to see what they involved and what we think would be the most effective for us to make ourselves. Also we need to look at what we have the resources to be able to achieve.
