Uploading and editing!
Today Eva and I spent our double period, email and uploading all the various videos we have filmed throughout the last week, we have all filmed at my house, and also at Eva's too, we filmed our friends pretending to be drunk and drinking alcohol, we have also filmed a few party's that we have been too and we've been deciding into what order we are going to place our party scenes, and cutting them in the correct places.

Music!
My group and I had planned to used to M.I.A song paper planes and Tempa T next hype but as we now know we can't use these sound tracks due to copy write issues so as a group we have been using Garage band too create our own track to play, similar to these two tracks.
We liked the sound track 'Next Hype' by Tempa T as it was a
very fast, loud song and fitted in very well with the image we wanted to create
with the party scene, the lyrics talk of a house being trashed which was we
wanted to create a stereotypical out of control house party with everything
being destroyed.
As a group we then decided that we wanted Paper planes by
M.I.A playing as it was very different song, very mellow and calm, and we wanted
to skip from a really dark fast scene, to the next morning, a very quiet, calm
scene to create a very different picture which could possibly confuse the audience,
making them want to watch on to find out what has happened and the relevance it
is going to have on the rest of the film.
These are also two popular songs that will be well known particularly
within our target audience, they are both very catchy.
The music we have all made together as a group on garage band
has been inspired by both these songs, the song playing throughout the party
scene is very upbeat, whereas the song being played when the characters wake up
is very calm and soft.

Clothing!
On the lead up to filming our 2 minuets
opening one of my jobs was too be in control of costumes and mis-en-scene. If
this was a major production I would have a very particular way of how we would
like the characters to be dresses.
Stereotypical lower/middle class teenager. Dark colours, hoodies, fur, leather
and studs, big hair and also a lot of dark eye make up.
The
mis-en-scene will be very basic, things such as rubbish, drink, food and people
everywhere. As very stereotypical teen party. When we get the shot of Sky leaving
the party as a teenager she will walk out of a tower block with rubbish on the
floor, and leaves blowing. Shell be wearing a long grey top, black hoodie,
black leather jacket with tights and boots, with messy hair and smudged make
up. She will be alone when leaving the tower block but other people may be
around. Sunday, 21 October 2012
Target audience!
The target audience my group and I are aiming for is around 15-25.
This is because the idea of our film being based on a Coming of Age theme, it may contain some inappropriate scenes and strong languages. I think that the age group we have chosen is a suitable one because teenagers might experience some of the scenes, and can possibly relate.
Whilst researching different films that are in the same genre, we have found that the age ranges are usually a 15 or 18 depending on the scenes and whether they are graphic and mainly the language they use.
Our idea has been heavily influenced by the drama series 'Skins' as it is something we enjoy watching, as typical teenage girls we should be able to relate to it, yet we can as it is such an extreme stereotype and none of us, or our friends are as reckless as the characters. This is the style we would like our film to be, very extreme compared to real life and extremely exaggerated.
The youth of today is very stereotyped and looked down upon as if were bad people and we care about nothing but ourselves. When this couldn't be wrong, as more than ever teens are doing better in the GCSE and A-levels, there are more people than ever applying for uni, with 50% of these people are under the age of 20 years old. Young people are often scrutinised for being unemployed but with more and more jobs being cut its so hard to compete with older people with so much more experienced and qualifications then a younger person like myself, parents/grandparents and most older people do not realise how hard young people try to get jobs.
The truth is these stereotypes couldn't be more wrong, and i believe these stereotypes are though of and portrayed in the media, as we know the media constantly focuses on the negative instead of the positive, meaning everybody is left with this picture in their head, creating the stereotypes.
I believe the idea and story we have created in our film is a perfect mix of what a teen really wants, Im sure all teens wished there weekends consisted of hanging out with there friends, going to wild partys, and doing what they want when they want instead of sitting at home watching TV, babysitting there siblings, doing homework and eating. Yet although most teens desire this life im sure they would also enjoy being royalty.
