Analysing Romantic Comedy Trailers - 'Love Hard'

The next film I will be analysing the trailer conventions for in terms of genre is 'Love Hard'.


  • High-key lighting is mainly in the romantic comedy genre
  • Set during christmas which is a common subgenre of romantic comedies, to set the film during a holiday
  • Voiceover of the main protagonist
  • Shots from the film revealing some narrative of the main protagonists falling in love
  • Cut screens is a typical editing technique that can be found in romantic comedy films
  • The christmas soundtrack playing in the background is to reflect the lightheartedness of the genre and emphasize the joyous romantic holiday
  • The title - 'Love Hard' - includes the word love which is the main theme in romance. It is also written in lowercase letters which is usually only found in romantic comedies
  • A second love interest is shown during the trailer, which is a common character type in romantic comedies
