we have massively researched our genre conventions. The fantasy genre very much consists of fantasy world, focused around the unreal and imaginative environment within which the characters reside.
Action in fantasy is very much breaking the boundaries of reality with over the top fight scenes and the over-exaggeration of a persons physical limitations to the world around them, quite often scaling buildings, jumping off sheer cliff faces to land unscathed or single characters taking on whole armies single handedly.
The Mise en scene is typically of one extreme to the next when looking at the fantasy element. a landscape can be barren, being decimated by war and violence or as a contrast it could be situated in woodlands or brightly lit forests which is the extreme signifier for peace and solitude compared to the idea of a broken land as shown by the war torn wasteland.
