The fantasy film genre is made of movies that use magic, or things that are not real as a main part of the story.
Fantasy films usually target kids, teenagers, and young adults. The genre is very popular because people can run away from their daily lives to see new and impossible things.
These films follow familiar rules, in what the story is about, and how the movie is made. The stories are usually about a conflict between good and evil. The hero is the main character, a normal person, often young who has been through a lot of challanges. The plot usually involves a big adventure or a long journey to protect a magical item or save the world. The action is often set in a fully imaginary world with its own rules.
To bring these imaginary worlds to life, fantasy films uses specific techniques. These movies are usually given a very large budget because they need to look real. They use a lot of special visual effects to create the magical creatures, spells, and impossible scenarios.
Because fantasy films cost so much to make, they are marketed in very specific ways. Posters and trailers focus on showing off the magic, the battles, and the fake worlds to attract the audience. Movies are often released as a series to keep the audience invested and coming back.
