20 Word Summary

A group of innocent school boys go to the party of the century as their determination and friendship is tested.

This is the 20 word summary of our final product we are striving to create. This product is targeted at a teen audience with the ideology of young school males and females who aim to explore this lavish lifestyle the media has created. This type of party lifestyle is often shown through television and movies to tempt and intrigue a teen audience who either have never done anything of that calibre or who enjoy to rebel and party. As three teen males ourselves, all of which soon to be 18, this is something that is the next milestone in our lives – the right to party. Taking the lead from critically acclaimed films such as ‘Super bad’ and even ‘The Hangover’, we want to rectify the issues and outdated nature that these films provide and purpose a much more up to date and down to earth scenario which we are sure most teens will relate to.

After presenting our initial ideas to the class and a group of our peers who are the targeted age group, we took on board their feedback and decided that we were going into a blind alley with no real intentions. So once we had realised this we took a step back and decided collectively to start over. So when drafting ideas we had the suggestion that we were being too farfetched and that we had to give the audience something to relate to. Therefore, we decided to take real life experiences into consideration. So, we went around that same group of peers and asked what issues and experiences they have faced (which they were willing to share) and came to the conclusion the majority had been involved in similar problems. Therefore we took the most gruesome and funny problems we could and combined them to create a basis for the film we now wish to create.

As before, we took this new film idea in front of the panel of judges we had previously faced and asked them once again for their opinion and for any question or improvements they might have for us. As a whole, despite the odd one or two not completely understanding (or maybe due to a lack of interest) the majority vote was an astounding improvement. The group of judges stated that this was a film idea that they believe, and we also believe, that a teen audience could relate and reform to – which all in all was the main goal. Of course limiting the audience down to one strict guidance is always going to be risky but we thought that the most common viewers of films (especially independents such as ourselves) in the present day are teens; due to platforms such as Youtube and Netflix
