Charts of Development - Moodboard and Initial Ideas



I  have gathered these ideas of both characters, and clothing due to my audience, and textual research. I have done this by looking closely at who the genre in which I am recreating appeals more to and then basing the conventions around these findings. The inspiration in which I have taken from this is 'Jamie' from 'A walk to remember' and I am going to base my female character on her. I am planning on taking some personality traits from Jamie and the 'working class' lifestyle as well as similar clothing for the male character. For example, from my textual analysis I have seen that the continuity of clothing is casual for this specific genre to show the 'spontaneous situations' of falling in love and I am trying to recreate this by using smart casual clothing for my male character. However, my audience research has allowed me to see who mainly I am aiming my products and therefore the narrative, locations and also the characters can be aimed at these in particular.
However, ideas for my narrative are formed simply by using my textual analysis and I am planning on creating is using the characters voice, with music playing in the background. Also I have decided I would like to use a narrative which is similar to a walk to remember. The reason in which I wanted to do this was so I could develop the plot around the narrative and I have come up with the idea that the narrative will open the trailer by telling the basic plot and life of the girl. However, I am not intending on using the sarcastic narrative that is often used in trailers of romantic dramas such as 'a cinderella story' as it would be to similar. It then would merge into her growing up in a well off family yet wanting to be someone completely different but it proves more difficult to become this as the past is dragged back to the present. When one day she meets the man of her dreams, yet she goes back down the wrong path. Furthermore, as the narrative goes on it becomes obvious that she is falling apart. Until one day she meets a male and everything changes. However, the narrative is not definate and I am not yet sure whether I will use this as a plot, but if I do I feel I am going to call it either 'Sweet Surrender' or 'Worlds Apart'. This idea however is not yet fully developed and seems uninteresting at the moment.
