The location in which a Romantic-Comedy is filmed often depends who the film is aimed at. If the film is a teen rom-com then the typical locations are:
- High School
- University
- A party
These films tend to be filmed in these specific locations as teens can often relate to the characters struggles as well as the types of characters in high schools. As this particular genre of film doesn't stray from reality the locations of teen rom-coms suit the genre.
However, Romantic-Comedies that are aimed towards over 18 year old tend to be filmed in cities such as London, New York or Paris. Paris and New York are extremely common locations for rom-com films as they are seen as cities in which love blooms. These cities are extremely well known, fast faced and these locations allow the directors to show the daily life of a character as well as show the audience a more believable perspective of characters. Furthermore, these cities offer many opportunities which allows room for the writer to add in an obstacle that will push the two main characters away from each other. Sometimes this obstacle may be another city or location that is pulling one of the characters away from the main setting and their lover. These locations help the story line develop and create a realistic film.Some
romantic comedies are set during a particular holiday such as
Christmas,Valentines day or even a wedding. These holidays allow for the
characters to meet new people or meet with friends and family members.
