Location - Amy's (Louise) house which we will set up to look like a café. We will use her kitchen and use props to make it more café-like (mise-en-scene). We shall use the outside of a café for the establishing shot.
Synopsis - Everyone in the world has a timer that's ticking down to when they meet their soulmate on their wrists. Harriet's only has a couple minutes left and it's ticking down. She's in a café writing in her diary, waiting for her time to be up. As the timer begins to get to it's final seconds, Harriet wonders if what she's expecting will become a reality.
Representations of:
- Sexuality - Both characters are female, therefore creating a homosexual narrative and exploring sexuality.
- Age - Although we will involve an actor of an older age, our two main characters are both teenage females which brings up the question of whether love can be experienced at such a young age.
Our opening sequence will show codes and conventions of the Romance genre, for example a voiceover to introduce the theme of love is a typical convention of a romance film. It also includes the theme of sexuality which is often shown in Romance films. However, we do challenge a classic convention of the Romance genre as stereotypically it follows the storyline of 'boy meets girl'.
Audience - Young adults/teens. We think that the storyline will associate more with them and that audience would like the film more.
Characters:
- Megan Matthews: Harriet, the main character in our film and who tells the story through her point of view.
- Amy Garratt: Louise, Harriet's soulmate.
- Andy Garratt: Waiter, the waiter who serves Harriet in the film.
