Star/performer area  

Here I will look at the actor in a range of different ways. Is that actor used in a specific genre (Clint Eastwood – westerns)? Does that actor have a certain way of performing? Does that actor always work with the same director? These are some of the question I would look at. It will be the performer on screen focused on

Genre

·         Action - Stories whose central struggle plays out mainly through a clash of physical forces.

·         Adventure - Stories whose central struggle plays out mainly through encounters with new "worlds."

·         Comedy

·         Crime - Stories whose central struggle is about catching a criminal

·         Horror -killing something in human 

·         Musicals – singing and dancing

·         Sci-fi - Stories whose central struggle is generated from the technology and tools of a scientifically imaginable world.

·         Western

·         Wars – centred around showing what a war was like 

Auteur - A filmmaker who influences their movies so much that they rank as their author.

The auteur's creative voice is distinct enough to shine through all kinds of studio interference and through the collective process; this could make a good director. If the involvement of the director is unclear, it may mean a poor film. The creator of the auteur Francois Truffaut said a quote:

“There are no good and bad movies, only good and bad directors.”
