2)2

3) Costumes, hair and makeup range from the everyday contemporary

teen drama college wear of April and her friends, to Quill’s severe

sci-fi blond bob and black leathers, with the humanesque, red eyed,

rotten teeth lizards dressed in gladiatorial leathers spanning both

sci-fi and fantasy genres.

The dominant storyline established in the extract is a typical sci-fi

plot of humans being threatened by aliens symbolised through the

device of Corakinus, the Shadow King, sharing April’s heart. This,

together with the fantasy element, is developed in a main scene in

the extract set in the medieval citadel when the king’s helper tries

and fails to give Corakinus control of the heart.

The extract introduces some easily recognisable genre characters.

Corakinus demonstrates all the characteristics of a sci-fi/fantasy

villain; in the extract he kills his helper for failing in his duty and

presents the main threat in the storyline and in line with genre

codes, talks in an electronically distorted voice.
