Genre is the type or category of film for example, Horror, Action and Comedy. A Sub-Genre is a genre within a genre. Two genres combined is a Hybrid genre for example Rom-Com. Codes and conventions are things that are expected to be seen in a genre for example in a horror you would typically see low, dark shots. Genre tropes are signifiers like the mis-en-scene, aspects of camera and lighting and setting.
My Favorite Genres
Thriller is a film with an exciting plot usually evolving crime and espionage.

| Taken 3 |
Main conventions that are usually seen in thrillers are plot twists, heists, weapons and aspects of danger.
Musicals are films were singing and dancing play a main part.

| Footloose 2011 |
In musicals you mainly see the characters break into song and dance, dietetic music, Male Lead: Protagonist, hero, Female Lead: Protagonist, often the love interest of the male lead, Villain: Usually an adult male, or often the conflict comes from the protagonist’s struggle against a life adversity.
