The Jelly Baby Task allows us to clearly show key points in our plot and establish the roles of the main characters. Our genre is a romantic comedy.
We had to pick 10 shots which we felt were most important.
1. Girl getting ready shown by her looking in a mirror - this establishes our main character and is also the part of the film which we are going to use for our title sequence.
2. Walking down the street with the boy approaching her - this is a key moment in the play as it establishes the new relationship between two key characters and is also an opportunity for some humour in the way that the girl speaks to the boy, possibly making it quite awkward or embarrassing for herself.
3.Girl and boy talking with a heart around it and showing that they have exchanged numbers - shows that the boy and girl have an interest in eachother.
4. Girl telling friend (florist) about boy - this is an introduction of the friendship which in the end develops into a romance.
5. Boy goes to florist to buy flowers for two different girls - this shows a different side to the boy and causes the audience to prefer the friend to the current boyfriend.
6. The friend on the phone to the girl to warn her about the boy - creates a complicated circumstance for the two.
7. Girl goes to visit boy in school and finds him kissing the other girl - this causes a change in attitude for the girl
8. Girl crying - this is important as it makes the audience feel sympathetic for the girl
9. Girl goes to find friend to apologise for not believing him
10. Girl and friend realising their feelings for eachother -this is important to show the happy ending
We have chosen a rom-com made by an independent because it is aimed at young adults like us, so we could get into the topic.
Our film is about a young girl who falls in love with a boy. She tells her friend who works in a flower shop. Then the boy, the girl is in love with, goes to the flower shop to order flowers for his girlfriend and the other girl. The flower boy tells his friend that the boy has a girlfriend, but she doesn't believe him. She goes to the school the girlfriend and the boy go to and sees them together. She is very upset and goes to the flower shop to tell the boy what just happened. He chears her up, and they both fall in love with each other. The comedy in this film will come mainly from the embarrassing situations that the protagonist girl gets herself in and any clumsy incidents she has.
We wanted to film our opening scene so, that we see the whole time the girl getting dressed and how she starts her day.
