Story Plan

The plot of our story has changed once again. We have changed it so it went ack to the orginal idea of the girlfriend cheating on her boyfriend and her best friend finding out. When we watched back our filming it looked better if we back to the orgianal story line. The scene would inclued Saff and Ameila talking about not letting Stevie and Nigel finding out about the kiss. Nigel and Stevie then enters to see Saff and Amelia together and asks what is going on.

Film linked to costumes


The film Adulthood is a film that reflects our characters and costumes of our original film idea. This also reflects some social group in society today.  Our idea was based on two group   within school, a girl and boy group. 
The costumes in adulthood are tracksuits for both girls and boys, the boys wear black and dull colours and the girls wear lighter colours. The guys in our film with be wearing the same styled tracksuits but in different colours and that is the same for the girls. 
We used Adulthood as a stereotype which is used in society today, many teens are stereotyped as bad people which it shown in adulthood.

Animatic




This is my groups animatic, it also contains our titles and production team names. The animatic shows the first two minute of the film opening and shows the two gangs and the killing of the young girl.  At the moment we have no music but it is a working process. The animatic was filmed in our media class so the setting is not the same as the correct setting and the pictures are not very detailed.

Change of Plan.

Before we started filming we changed our plans with the gang. We original had a couple of member of each gang but we needed to change it so where was three girls and three boys, six in total. We then change the idea so it would fit the amount of member in the gang.  We have changed it so Amelia with kiss her current boyfriend Ben Harris but then cheats him with Saff. They both came up with a plan to get her back for playing them off against each other..

The Setting



This is the forest where the girl would be taken away by her ex boyfriend. Hopefully the scene should be be a bit darker them this but not to dark as we need some light to film the scene. 
The girl will be walked  through the forest with her ex boyfriend a couple steps behind her finding behind trees and she turns around. She continues to walk until her ex grabs her and drags her away, all you can hear is her screaming and shouting.

Research for our film

Welsh schoolboy 'killed former girlfriend for free breakfast'
Swansea court told defendant lured Rebecca Aylward, 15, to woods in Bridgend and beat her with a rock to win bet
Our film is based on the true story of a young girl, who's boyfriend killed her for a free breakfast which was arranged by his mates. As a group we wanted people understand the fear the young girl felt and that the boy was thinking and why is made the choice he did. We wanted the boyfriend to reflect Stevie character in killing Amelia. We thought that the true story would help build a good story line for our film. We are not going to use the same names as the true story as we believe it would be disrespectful to both people involved. We gave up with our name of '50/50' for our film opening, our reason for our film title was the bet was 50/50 and Stevie had the choice to kill Amelia. 
The setting would also be a bit different to the true setting, we would set our film in a woods near our school however they did have a number of different idea on where to set the film opening.
