Relationship to drama is basically the term used to match what happens in the film to the genre. Different genres have different conventions when it comes to editing. Different styles and techniques are used to illustrate the genre of the film. For example- horror movies will typically be very dark and have a lot of creepy non diegetic music. Where as comedy’s tend to have a light hearted theme to it and happy endings and very upbeat characters. Horror movies will use the build up of scary music to make the scene more intense and scary. Horror movies also use sudden movements to make the audience jump.
In this clip from nightmare on elm street they use a sudden burst of loud music to make the audience jump, they then use quieter creepier music to make the scene more intense. They have used dark lighting and they have used children singing which makes it more scary as its taking something innocent and turns it into something dangerous and scary.
