Questionnaire

We have also created a questionnaire about Rom coms to help decipher our audience, we have handed them out to boys and girl and a mixture of ages. Now to wait for them back! Questionnaire for Rom Com Research

The Script is finally here!

Script

TITLE OF FILM!

We've finally got a film title, which is very exciting. Its called 'Elephant Juice' as when you mouth it, it looks like i love you. We thought it reflects the fake effection our female protagonist has for her boyfriend.
Heres a very rough rough rough look at what it may look like...

Our lovely protagonists!

Scriptamungo! 

So we have just finished writing our opening monologue which includes our protagonists pet hates of all things men! It took just over a week to complete this as all three of us have turned out to be perfectionists! Unfortunately we havent had the chance to write our script up yet but it will be on here soon. 

On the other hand we have successfully found our female protagonist and her dreaded grousome lover! 

Female Protagonist REBECCA STAMATIS

So sticking to our indie rom com conventions we wanted our main protagonist to be ordinary looking and naturally pretty. Fortunately my best friend Becca seems to fit this pitch well...

Actresses that I think share the same kind of features and conventions as Becca are: 

Carey Mulligan

Zooey Deschanel 

Audrey Tautou

The Boyfriend SAMUEL WHITE

Instead of having a grubby, unattractive boyfriend we decided to go for a boy who seems good looking and a real 'dream boat' on the outside but really he is just a horrible selfish person. We decided to change this so our first boyfriend (Sam) and our male protagonist (who doesn't appear in the opening) contrast each other. 

Sam has been used in many media projects before so he should be comfortable behind the camera and will know his stuff!

Actors that influenced our decision for picking Sam include: 

Hugh Grant

Ashton Kutcher

Ryan Reynolds

Aaron Johnston

So there we are our two characters!

Here is another media text called "The Ex Drummer". I like the way the text is actually incoorporated on the objects rather than edited on the computer! It also isnt the main focus of the shots so we focus more on the story.
