Summary of Ideas and Audience Feedback

My idea for my film is a romantic comedy, in the opening two minutes of which a happy teenage girl is getting ready - the connotations of this scene are that she is in a happy relationship, as there are disposable photos of her and a boy stuck round her mirror and she draws a heart in the condensation on the mirror. The last shot will be a boy moodily turning off his alarm clock. This introduces the characters as contrasting, likewise in many other rom coms such as The Proposal. The intertitles will be embedded in the scene, for example, written in makeup. My audience fed back that this was a good idea, as many other similar films have been made and met positive reviews, although the titles may be challenging and time consuming.

Recently in media, we have been studying genre, certification and audience of certain genres of films. I have been looking at the target audience for my film. If my film is to have mild sex references, I will have to make the certificate a 12, as making it a 15 would limit my target audience of teenage females. Also, this is the certification of the majority of romantic comedies I researched.
