I have finalized my idea for my storyline and now I have decided to have it set between England and NewYork. The genre will be drama.
My Storyline
The storyline for my film will be about a young girl who dreams of living like a star. She travels to NewYork in order to see the homeland of fashion and make it big in the world. The film follows her from her home in England to her runaway trip to NewYork where she thinks the city will be the answer to everything.

Research into Trailer Form
I have decided that my film will me a drama. I have been looking into films similar to this for an idea of trailer formation and ideas of the types of things I want to be involved in my film.
The first film I looked at was Happy Go Lucky.
Looking into this film I like how its comic, but also has a lot of realism that the audience can relate to. From this film I like how the locations are your everyday places and that the things she does are things people could relate to for example having a driving lesson.
The ideas that I want to take from this for my trailer form is using a few different locations and having the shots go back and forth of the different scenes so that its muddled up and not in order so the storyline is harder to depict.
Another Film I looked into was Angus Thongs And Pertfect Snogging.
I like how this film trailer uses people of the same age that im looking into using, the realism that people can relate to, how its comic, the locations used and how it uses voice overs.
The ideas that I want to take from this trailer is the use of voice overs, words/phrases added in with images on a book (0:16, 0:20 and 0:27 seconds) and the use of a few locations.
The third film i looked into was Kick-Ass.
I don't want my film to be a lot of action or adventure but i wanted to use this film as a representation of the comedy side of my film idea.
The ideas that I want to take from this trailer is the use of voiceovers and how things go from serious to comic. I also like how it has a focus on the four main characters for a little bit and shows their names and sort of introduces them (1:20, 1:22, 1:24 and 1:33)
