PB1B Genre Generator

Genre Generators 

The first generator that I played around with was the meme generator. When you first enter the site, you can look at memes that others have made, or you can start making your own. When you are making your own meme, the first thing to do is select a picture. You can either select an image that they provide for you or you can upload your own image. Once you select a picture, it’s time for you to enter a caption. You are given two options for text, text on top and text on bottom, you can select one or both. After you select your text, you hit the button that says generate and your meme is created. Even though this website is more of a creator than a generator, it is still a good website for someone who wants to create their own memes and someone who just wants to have a good laugh. 

The next generator I used was the SCI generator. The first thing I noticed about this generator was that it is very simple to use. The only thing you have to do is type in a name for the author, which even then it is optional, and hit the generate button. Once you do this, the website will generate a very long paper about computer science or something along those lines. Each paper is structured the same, there is the title on top along with the authors names that you typed in, an abstract, a table of contents, 6 different sections and references on the bottom. Another thing I noticed about this generator was that all the papers had charts, flow charts and pictures scattered throughout them to make the papers seem more realistic. I don’t know exactly why people would use this website, but I think it’s very interesting reading the papers it produces. 

The final generator that I used was called Suggest Me Movie. The purpose of this site is exactly what the title says, it suggests you a movie. The first thing I noticed about this site was the filters on the side of the page. They had filters for year, genre, IMDb score, votes, and keywords. You can use these filters if you want, but you don’t need to. Once you're ready, there is a button that says suggest movie that you can hit. Once this button is hit the name of a movie will pop up along with its trailer, IMDb score and votes. Underneath the trailer, you can find a description about the film along with the director and the cast. This generator is very useful for when you’re in the mood for a movie, but you want to watch something new.

  1. I do agree with you that the meme “generator” was more like a meme creation website, but it still showed plenty of examples of different memes. That being said I don’t think memes have to just be a picture with top and bottom text. And I also question who would actually use that computer science generator. Although, like you said, it is pretty simple to use. Even if the results it gives you are a little above my knowledge.

  2. I enjoyed the descriptions that you used almost walking the readers through how to use the meme generator website. I was disappointed that your meme wasn't illustrated properly but i still got the ideas you were portrayed.
