More Genre talk!

 Ive found the genre i know i want to do for this project!!! The genre is coming of age. I do not know why i had so much trouble finding out what genre to put my film opening under but i will definitely do a coming of age approach for this project. Ive been researching coming of age film openings and title cards to really get an idea of what i want my project to be. 

My main character will be a female in high school, so my inspirations are films like Ladybird (2017) like i talked about in my previous post, The Edge Of Seventeen (2016), The Perks Of Being A Wallflower (2012), Booksmart (2019) and 10 Things I Hate About You (1999).


There are many factors of why i chose these films for my inspirations: Ladybird i have talked about before but the opening for ladybird captures and establishes setting so perfectly while also showcasing a perfect amount of character and context for the rest of the film. The Edge Of Seventeen shows the life of a teenage girl in high school which is perfect when relating my main character for the film opening. Perks Of Being A Wallflower has a similar storyline to what i am going for, moving to a new school, teenage angst. Booksmart and 10 Things I Hate About You are both under the coming of age genre. They all have that teenage coming of age story that i am going for.
