For the Horror genre, many connotations to horror were made. In the center of the image, the main character stands alone, head tilted, watching from afar and wielding a saw menacingly. The image itself highlights him as the focus of attention, by gradually changing to be lighter and more focused than the rest of the shot. A dark outline appears around the outline restricting view to the killer. People in the background are distant from him, suggesting he acts alone and disassociates himself from regular society.
The genre for this image is Family. The sense of family is created from the closely gathered group, going about their own routine. The light around the edges evokes images of purity and happiness, as a family should be such. The conversation going on in the image is also affected by stance. On the right, he is standing, looking down onto the girl on the left, which suggests he is superior to her, like a father figure or such. Whereas in the front, the person is listening to music, distant from the group, suggesting rebellion, or teenage attitude, wanting to be away from the family and left alone.
I love these ideas! Great photos too! Did you have a third genre?
