Task 6 - Audience Expectations

We went around our school asking girls aged 16-18 what they would expect from a chick flick. Here's what we found out; 

Gigi King, 16, says "I'd expect  a chick flick to include lots of girl stuff, gossiping and should have a romantic story line" 

Becky Thorne, 17, says "Chick flicks should definitely include two people falling in love and having to overcome an obstacle. They should be funny and the best chick flicks would be starring High Grant and Sandra Bullock"  

Shona Reilly, 16, says "There should be lots of girly conflicts; cat fights and back stabbing. There has to be a romantic interest who is desired by more than one individual. Girl Power should be a big focus, it should feature strong and independent young women!" 

Alexa Rusakoff, 16, says "From a chick flick I would expect there to be a lot of girly banter; there should be plenty of ongoing gossip and a lot of flirtatious encounters. Slumber parties and house parties resulting in break ups and make ups. In the end the girls will stick together and help each other out, there's always a happy ending" 

Many other girls within our target audience agreed with these statements and all felt strongly that the film should be comedic and include a love interest.
