Q3 DRAFT Notes

What is a distributor:

A distributor is the company (that can be just one person) who takes the completed film and organises the release date, marketing and distribution of the movie. The way they handle distribution is deciding which cinemas show the film and also what TV channels show the film. This also includes the manufacturing and selling of DVDs. Often a distributor only works per country. This means that larger (worldwide) films often have multiple distributors. Distributors find the films that they will distribute from film festivals, such as the sundance festival.

The scrapbook has been eliminated

location - school - follow the main character and love interest on their journey to school cut between the 2 so we give the impression they are destined for each other.

At school they are going to meet and the love interest is going to be going out with someone who is not an outsider and who is typically sport etc. Embarrass her by tripping her up and then her friends are going to humiliate her.

characters are going to be between 16-18.

for this we are going to get inspiration from
trick or treat for the humiliation
heathers for gang
napoleon dynamite for diegetic titles
pretty in pink for the outsider


3 main characters - protagonist - love interest - antagonist
2 sub characters - friends of the antagonist

love interest is going out with the antagonist

antagonist and protagonist are enemies 

the protagonist is treated as an outsider

this all created the love triangle

voice over to be delivered during the opening sequence when titles are present
