Planning of Settings - Erin Surkitt

Here is a series of locations that we would like to use when filming in order to tell the story and also appeal to the target audience which is teenagers.  

The opening of the film will begin with Ash and Darcy biking past Ash's house laughing and giggling which makes the film relatable straight away as they audience may be able to recall a time when they were biking with their friends having fun.

The next shot will be of Ash and Darcy continuing to bike down the street, again following up with the reliability aspect.

The next shot that the film will use will be an edit with a rewind symbol appearing on the screen. We decided to include this as it will appeal to the target audience and it also adds a sense of ...

After the rewind the film will start off back at a house belonging to the main character, as she begins to make her way to school. We decided to include this because straight away it makes the film relatable to teenagers as it is mimicking their daily school routine.

During her journey to school she will walk through the streets, listening to music, looking quite glum, potentially due to the fact that it is common for teenagers to not enjoy school, but it may also be due to the mental illness that Ash has.

This is the area where ash will kick the can and a credit will appear, adding to the stereotypical features of our main character (mischievous behaviour)

The last setting that will be used will be the school. We decided that this was a must for a teen angst film as it appears in most, if not all teen angst films, due to the reliability of this and the success it is known to have if included.
