The document summarizes a film pitch called "Graduation" about three nerdy high school friends - Adam, George, and Eddy - who are outcasts. As their high school graduation approaches, they decide to attend the graduation party despite being told they are not welcome. The pitch argues that the film would appeal to a wide audience as it uses conventions from popular teen comedies like American Pie, focusing on the friends attending a party and Eddy's attempt to make a move on a popular girl named Chloe. It suggests pitching the idea to Universal Studios due to their experience with successful teen films.
2. Graduation is about three friends ‘Adam, George
and Eddy’. They are an outcast to society and
stereotypically they are ‘nerds’ that find high
school life hard, especially for Eddy who is
madly in love with a popular girl ‘Chloe’. As
it’s coming to the end of their high school years
they decide to attend the Graduation party
despite being told that they are not welcome.
They have lots of alcohol and turn up at the
party in for a crazy night. Will Eddy make his
move on Chloe? And will the other boys fit in?
4. I believe that Universal Studios would be the best
to pitch our idea as you have the perfect
expertise being a multi millionaire company to
pitch our idea in the right way and using lots of
different advertisements to make it the biggest
it could possibly be. You have also produced
teen comedies that have been huge for example
American Pie. Which has the same sort of
conventions Graduation so would be good to
work with. Help us make Graduation the best
it can be!
5. Graduation is conventional in many ways as we did a
lot of research in to teen comedies we now have
the knowledge to make our teen comedy the most
conventional it can be. Using the ‘three nerds’ is a
stereotypical thing for a high school which is
conventional to teen comedies as well as using the
plot line of them wanting to go to a party and get
laid is conventional to many other teen comedies
today. We use props like alcohol in the party
scenes which is conventional. There are many
other conventions in our teen comedy, which
relate a lot to other teen comedies for example
American Pie.
6. Graduation would target a wide range of
audience for example it would target the
audience of the previous teen comedies for
example American Pie, as we use the same sort
of conventions in our films. It would also
attract to young teenagers, especially boys as it
is about parties and high school which young
teenagers will relate too, and the boys trying to
get laid which is a convention to young teenage
boys.
