Group members: Ashley, Charlie, Claire and Rojiar

We've decided to overall do a Teenage Romantic Comedy, as we believe we'll be able to achieve our best within this genre. The fact we're all teenagers ourselves will help and also we are all familiar with movies of this genre; such as The Girl Next Door and Mean Girls.
We need to decide whether to make our rom-com a 15, or 12A and need to consider the language and if we have any jokes of a sexual nature.

Brainstorm of storyline ideas:
- girl is a geek and likes the popular boy
- the boy is secretly gay
- girl is secretly rebellious, and moves school for fresh start
- new to the country/school
- girl has really over protective parents
- girl has a young child

Research into the genre:

Romantic comedy films, colloquially known as romcom, are movies with light-hearted, humorous plotlines, centered on romantic ideals such as a true love able to surmount most obstacles. Romantic comedy films are a sub-genre of comedy films as well as of romance films. Because of their appeal to women, romantic comedies are sometimes called "chick flicks".

This is our group for this assignment.
