Romantic comedy (Rom-Com)

In a Rom-Com, the main characters tend to be of different genders, a male and a female. A relationship needs to have two people involved. A lot of Rom-Com films tend to focus more on the female character due to Rom-coms aiming for the female audience. Rom-Coms tends to be set at a mall, coffee shop, school, beach, and workplace. Costumes are based on the character's personality. Many types of shots can be in a Rom-Com, for example, extreme close-ups, panning, and mid and long shots. In the films, the main characters are generally from different social classes. Throughout the film, life-lessons get taught and at the end of the film, the characters get together and go past all of the barriers and sticky times they had.
