Locations- I will use a combination of scenes in school, activities and in her bedroom as it is her everyday life.
Props- I am going to use social media and technology e.g. a laptop and iPhone.
Costume- I am going to stay in with the conventions of the teen film. I am going to make the costumeup to date to attract the then audience.lighting- I am using natural lighting in my scenes as I want to make it look realistic and developed the lighting as Hollywood films use professional bright lights. As you can see by this image from the 'DUFF' a recent teen film.
EDITING:
Techniques I am planning to use- montage of clips manipulating the speed by slow motion and speeded up and reversed.
-In teen film they use quite quick transitions between scenes and use interesting transitions. I want to make a realistic teen film therefore I am combining characteristics of a normal life with a teen film.
CAMERAWORK:

SOUND:
-I want to emphasises the sound in the montage clips at the start of film as I want my main role to be writing, cutting, drawing and gluing and the sound to be really loud as it portrays her concentration.
- I want my music to show the emotions of my character and the music to get happier through the film to convey what happens to my character.
In most teen films they use very up to date pop music in their films to attract the teen audience. I want to use music my target audience will know to attract them more but have it to up to date as it will distract my audience from the storyline.
For this post Katy, I would get some stills from real films in your genre so that you can illustrate them and then prove that you want to stick to conventions. You could compare it to your storyboard too.
ReplyDeleteThe Duff was a great film and also was an interesting take on the teen genre.
