Week 10 Reflective Blog Post

This week was one of our most important week yet in our media year because we had created a whole new opening sequence since we thought that the old one was very boring and not showing much of our main character lifestyle and background. Our target for this week was to create an opening sequence that would intrigue our audience and contains some action to not only appeal to our target audience but to ensure that our piece wouldn't be boring to watch for our target audience of 16-24 year olds and to make it something that could make our audience be deterred from watching our film. Our idea is completely new, but based around the same plot that is a teenager who is involved with drugs but who is extremely intelligent and getting the top grades in school. Rather than just having Edward walking outside of his house all the way to the school which we knew was really boring, we decided to jump straight in to the school scenes and film the teenager's desire for cocaine. This is so that the audience understands what type of personality my character has right from the start which could make our audience want to see more. We believe that this idea is much better than our previous idea as it contains more action and is far more interesting for our specific target audience of 16-24 year olds.
