Evaluation Planning

In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

• The location of our film opening is based in a school, which is typical for many 'chick flick' films such as Mean Girls and St.Trinians.
• We use blue car, pink bag, fluffy coat, classroom equipment to match the typical chick flick requirements.
• There is a classroom shot where the camera pans across the classroom presenting different kinds of  people in the class, such as the popular ones, the quite ones, the loud ones.....
• The font and style of our opening credits uses  hand-written-like font also shows that it is a chick flick.
• The characters are introduced by giving each of them a close up shot of what their characteristics are.
• The opening also uses a pop rock background music which helps to suggest that the film is a chick flick.
• Our film is about a new girl fitting into her new school, which is a typical story line for a chick flick.
• An antagonist is also introduces having 'her eyes on' the new girl.
