We used conventional narrative forms such as a chain of events and flashbacks to tell our story, while also challenging narrative norms by creating mystery around the film. The film combines elements of chick flicks and tragedies, with stylistic influences seen in genres like I'm Here. Characters, setting, iconography, theme, and visual/audio elements were considered in both our film and examples from others. Cinematography aspects like lighting, framing, and movement, as well as editing techniques including continuity and final cut, were also important aspects of our film.
