Possible Research Paper Topics

A topic I would like to talk about is the appearance of a character during Melodramatic situations. When a conflict arises how a character looks plays a huge role. In movies where a tragic event has happened we can see the facial expressions on the actor or actress Appearance of the characters set the mood of the situation. It plays a key role in shaping a melodramatic narrative. If there was a situation in a movie where someone died we wouldn't see the characters wearing bright colors such pink, orange or yellow but rather colors that are darker such as black or grey. The audience gets more of a feel for the characters and their situations because of how they are presented on the screen. I feel like I can find sufficient information on my topic. This topic is interesting tome because most people don't notice the effects that appearance can have on the audience of a film or television series. Also, appearance is the first thing you notice subconsciously while looking at a screen. How the character looks and what she or he is wearing is a factor in a melodramatic film. Another possible topic I would like to talk talk about is the background of a film. The settings also play a huge role in setting the stage. In a sad depressing scene the surroundings tend to be dark and in a small constricted area. When looking at such backgrounds a person can feel gloomy. This topic interest me because I want to personally learn about the backgrounds used in melodramatic films while researching the topic.
