Following conventions
 Many movies nowadays are based on stories about life,
in this way, my movie follows convention as it falls
under the category of “Slice of life”.
 The movie shall be containing characters of which the
audience can relate to.
 The movie shall also contain various stereotypes which
reinforces the way in which people think about certain
groups.

3.  Challenging Conventions
 In the plot, the main character focuses mostly on
creating a Horror movie. By doing this I am creating a
movie within a movie, a setting that is uncommon and
unconventional.

allowing the audience to be deceived into believing
they are watching a movie of a different genre.

4. How does it represent social
groups or issues?
 My movie opening represents the young adult social
group who spend the majority of their time currently
on social media.
 The main character approaches his peers for their
opinion on his work/ progress in making his movie.
Maybe he does this because he believes the older
generation are not in sync with today’s modern
lifestyle and how technology has reshaped it.
 Some of the social issues that my movie addresses are
bullying within a school environment as well as rivalry
between young adults.
