At the beginning of the trailer a shot will show the setting of the high school with the 3 main characters walking through the school. (characters will be wearing 'nerdy attire' which will be funny for the audience)
It will then cut to the production company logo for roughly and fast paced upbeat music will begin playing (conventional of a teen comedy)
It will then cut to one of the three main characters who is at home playing COD on his Xbox and wearing a huge set of headphones and is shouting instructions through the microphone. this will be comical as he is talking like hes addressing a real army.
It will then cut to the second main character and shows him at home in his room playing world of war craft, showing an over the shoulder shot of him talking to himself getting animated about the game play .
It will then cut to the third main character who is in a dark room and the scene suggest he is about to get intimate with a girl and is talking aloud. It then shows silence in the dark for a second before lighting up his light saber and pretending to fight with it. He’s younger brother then walks in and tells him he’s a loser.
A title scene will then appear on screen.
The next scene in the trailer will be show an establishing shot of the main school 'atrium' it will then zoom again in the atrium to the three nerds walking through, the setting will be a typical school scene however their will be posters on the walls advertising a 'Graduation Party' the nerds then hover around the posters, only for one to be barged by a popular Jock and told to stay away, and not to come. The nerds then discuss about going, and more title scenes appear displaying why they wanna go to the party (one wants to date a popular girls and the other two just want to socially accepted)
After, the atrium scene it will then show them in the dinner hall, eating hot food, then an attractive girl walks past and asks one nerd if he is going to the graduation party, he replies by being really nervous. He then tells his friend that he wants to be with that popular girl. The other two nerds then say they can't be nerds for ever and they want to prove themselves as being popular and want to be accepted. They then discuss how they are going to get drink, one nerd is confident and says he can get, he then rings his mum up and asks, then sends a picture to his friends when he is at home of all the alcohol, they then get excited and are looking forward to the party.
Towards the end of the trailer, it shows the group of nerds doing one shot at one of his.
Then it cuts to when they are outside the party and ring the doorbell, they open the door and the party is full of people drinking, they walk in.
Fast paced editing then occurs, when it shows one of the nerds upstairs with a girl, being thrown on the bed and then cuts to downstairs when the other two nerds and doing shots, the trailer ends when one of the nerds passes out and hits his head on the table. Party music is playing throughout the party scene, fast paced, up beat music playing.

production concept mind map from meeting
Present at the meeting where - Brett, Rachel, Kirby and Alex
We discussed ideas for our storyline, we came up with three ideas. The 1st idea we thought of was having a group of 4 boys who want to loose their of virginity at the final party as high schoolers. The second idea we thought of was having a new boy who wants to get in with the popular boys and then falls in love with a popular girl. We decided not to choose these ideas because we believed they lacked spark and interest and also believed they were cliche storylines for Teen Comedies. The idea we believed was the best and the one we are going to use is where there are a group of nerds who are stereotypically nerdy who are bullied at school by the popular kids. The three nerds want to go to a graduation party and they told they cannot go, however they go, and the trailer will hint that they are with girls and very drunk, we believe this will be the most comical storyline.
After coming up with the provisional idea for our trailer, we then decided to talk about characters. We came up with ideas about the nerds, we said that they have to wear stereotypical clothing for example sweaters vests, shirts, tie, jeans and shoes, whereas the popular Jocks have to wear clothing such as baggy jeans, polos and rugby's. The girls in the trailer also have to make themselves look popular and good looking by wearing contempoary clothing.
The setting of our trailer was also discussed at our meeting. We came up with three scenes for our Teen Comedy. The first idea for our scene was our school 'Neale Wade' this would be the scene where the nerds are seeing the posters about the party and get bullied. The next scene we discussed using was one of our houses this would be for when we show the nerds doing nerdy things for example playing on COD. Our final idea for the scene was another one of our friends houses so we can depict the scene of the party.
I contributed a great deal to our meeting for example I came up with the idea for our trailer, along with Brett. I also contributed the idea of one of the main characters playing with a lightsaber in his bedroom in the trailer and helped contribute to the names of the characters in our trailer. I contributed the name of our film 'Graduation' which we then made a poll about including other possible names and let our target audience vote on what they wanted the name to be.
After completing our meeting, I then decided to summarise the idea we chose into a mind map, we went more into detail about the trailer, characters and settings.
