We have just finished editing our sequence and over-all I am pleased with what we, as a group, have created. Although there are some things I would do differently I am happy with what we have done.
At first, we had the idea of of filming footage in the style of a teen-comedy like 'American Pie' (1999, Weitz) because we thought it would be original and different, but this idea didn't go due to the fact that we had trouble thinking of a plot and somewhere to shoot it which would fit the genre.
In the end we decided to concentrate on the genre of 'social realism'. we researched films such as 'This is England' (Meadows 2006)
