A Studios Pitch
I <3 U Romantic Comedy
-By Owen Baldwin-Evans
The Plot
Nathan is a clumsy teenage guy who is on the search for a girlfriend. Jessica is your typical teenage girl who could be said to be out of Nathans league. Both Nathan and Jessicas friends are on hand to support them if needs be
We watch as the two of them battle teenage dramas, relationship tantrums and first kisses.
At the end everything ends well and we see Nathan and Jessica start what could only be guessed to be a long and fruitful relationship.
Characters
Four main cast members will be needed for the film:
2 Female Characters (Jessica & Jessicas friend Sarah) All the cast members would have to look the age of the characters. In this case 16 year old British students.
Music
The research carried out discovered that the conventional music used in Romantic Comedies are often upbeat and happy. As our production is set in a school and the characters are all students, we search for music that would be perhaps more modern and teenager-y than the orthodox Romantic Comedy genre music.
The YouTube Music Library provided us with a great number of tracks that are potential to be used in our production, especially the tracks Pomade and Stalling.
Location
After visiting and researching numerous schools we settled for Reeds School to be our shooting location. What we really liked about Reeds was the great exterior settings, well lit corridors and good bedrooms to be used for the wake up scenes.
These selected costume ideas are important in two senses. Firstly they convey the idea of students in education. Secondly, depending on what the character is wearing, the audience can get an insight on their personality and how in touch with fashion they are.
