PB1 B Genre Generator

When trying to create or “genre generate” a genre is not hard to make because there are different types of genres all around that people don’t even notice. The " Genre conventions are all the little elements, from archetypal characters to repeating plot points, that separate one genre of fiction from another. Most genres have a set of very particular elements that readers or moviegoers expect, and artists often try to make sure their works include enough of these to keep the audience happy. Genre conventions tend to evolve over time as artists work to break out of the typical mold and create fresh new content.

Sometimes people eventually get tired of certain genre conventions, at which point these conventions might even be labeled as cliché. Essentially, genre conventions are the defining aspects of any genre or sub genre. There are tons of these conventions for each genre, and any given work doesn't necessarily have to include more than a handful of them; if there aren't any at all, the work may not ultimately fall into the intended genre. For example, a horror movie without a few recognizable elements — things like monsters, creepy settings, isolation, or darkness wouldn't necessarily be considered a "horror" film anymore by most fans and critics.”(WiseGeek)
