2. What hybrid-genre of teen are we
going to be doing? Why?
We are going to be doing a teen drama
because that was what majority of the
representatives said in our audience survey
Drama is an interesting hybrid-genre
because there can be lots of twists to the
story and can have any sort of theme
3. How our real media research inspired
us for our film
Short openings in the films were most
effective- kept audience interested.
Main character- introduced first
Suitable opening music
4. What must you include to ensure your
audience like the film?
From our audience survey, most of our respondents said
they wanted:
Be a drama
Main character should be female
Be set at a party
Have a storyline that involves a murder
Have Hip Hop/R&B music played in it
Want the character to be rebellious and popular
Be a character teen drama
To have a love interest for our main character
Want mainly teen characters
Not have a happy ending
5. Emily’s synopsis ideas..
I like the idea that there is a twist to a story,
such as having a good guy, who is actually the
most evil out of all of the characters. I like a
very mysterious story because it keeps the
audience engaged with the film, wanting to
know more about it. These leads on to my
idea of having a short introduction that
doesn’t tell the audience a lot about the film
because they will stay engaged throughout
the whole of the opening sequence.
