just turned eighteen - Planning - Narrative

Madison Young is a bossy rich teen from an upper class family and is a stereotypical daddy’s girl, she is a high school student in her senior year and she decided that she no longer cares about anything anymore. Her best friend Jennifer Hill, who blindly does what Madison says without looking the other way, is trying her hardest to change her new view of life, after being best friends for the past 8 years their friendship has never been stronger. Ethan Wells is the typical socialite Jock who is the number 10 striker on the school football team, he's had his eye on Madison for a few months and this year he vows to woo her before senior prom commences, but she on the other hand is constantly trying to push him away.

Throughout her last year the pressure of being popular is gradually kicking in, with not only Ethan interested in her, but most of the other sport fanatics too. The evil queens of the popular side of the school share an interest in her, but not in a good way, they seem to think that Madison's fast growing popularity is threatening theirs so they have a desire to humiliate Madison at the prom.

We took the idea of the romance from 'Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging' as it is a major part of the plot in that film and makes the audience wwant to keep watching so they can see what happens to the relationship. Having popular 'queen bee' characters comes from 'Mean Girls' because the target audience should be able to relate to having popular girls in their school and this will result in them relating to Madison more. Jennifer being a 'nerd' who is friends with a 'popular' peson is taken from 'Clueless' because it isn't what the audience would expect from a typical teen angst film - as the two characters are from different cliques - and it keeps them interested and makes the film different from the others in the genre.
