Changes to our Final Ideas (:

In a previous blog post I said what we're going to do in our film:
' Our basic idea for this was that we would have a Queen Bee and her followers (like in mean girls there is Regina George, and her followers; Gretchen Weeners and Karen Smith) and they would be talking about this new girl that has arrived (Cady Heron in mean girls), the shot would then cut to her and the 'nerd' type group, they would probably be talking about how they are in awe of the popular girls and how they wish they could be like them. Then the Queen Bee decides that she wants to make the new girls life a bit of a misery, they decide to take her and put her in their group of friends where she instantly becomes popular and gets all of the attention, but a good type of attention, nothing like she would have got from anyone when she was with the nerds. She doesn't mind because now she feels as if she is popular, but then the Queen Bee decides she isn't worth her time and kicks her out, her new friends now ditch her and her old friends don't want her back.'
We have now had some new ideas for this

• Instead we're going to start the two minute clip at the end of the movie and then have a kind of flashback effect
• The Nerdy girl will throw some 'wine' over the Queen Bee and then the Queen Bee is going to say how she was never like this and then it will REWIND and show the beginning of the film
• We're going to start the film with the girls and guys at prom
• We are going to have a Band playing for us, so that sorts out the issue of copyright music, as they write their own music & songs

I really like this new idea because it enables us to get more in and also enables us to define this movie as a chick flick in the first few minutes instead of us having to do like a voice over or something to tell the audience what it is. I think if we do this well then our two minute clip will be successful.

Hannah & Alana, I'd like to know if you've got any other ideas we could add to this to make it even better?
