Evaluation - Question 1 Brief

Our narrative touches upon many teen issues like peer pressure that intertwines the usage of substance abuse and sexual experiences. These then lead our character into a journey of moral principles as she falls pregnant and has to decide which path she will follow, whether she will have an abortion or put the baby up for adoption or rather raise the baby herself. Within our opening sequence we decided to include all the narrative devices that will set up this distressing decision that she has to make. To create curiosity and demand for our audience, we have deliberately left out the final outcome and have left it very abmiguous as to what decision she will make. Our sub genre is that of a teen drama that more than anything is specifically targeted at teenage girls and certain female universal issues. Movies like Thirteen and Precious are what we used as inspiration.
