Initial Ideas/Storyboard

Initial Ideas:
I have decided that a title sequence similar to that of 'Tracy Beaker' may be a possibility however, i would include more images or real people or characters from the show and objects associated with it. For example, the TV drama would be aimed at children aged around 9 up to 16 and would feature things such a popular music, and aspects more suited to a technological age as children are more interested in things such as MSN and mobile phones, texting, facebook ect so these could be Incorporated. The music would obviously be upbeat, and i would like for thier to be lyrics however not a theme tune in the sense of the lyrics are about the show. I would say this would be more effective than including clips from the show as typical of shows such as Hannah montanna ect. as this would involve shooting alot of footage in different locations and i feel this would be too difficult and unnecessary.

Another idea would be to film a sequence that is entirely point of view and depicts the morning routine of a young boy of around 12 ears of age as he travels to school. I could start with a blurred shot across at an alarm clock, the shot could then become clearer as he puts his glasses on a and realises that he is late. The editing would be fairly fast paced and may feature some other characters including a bully that could bump into the protagonist and he walks down the corridor. The music would be typical of a drama such as 'Grange Hill' where i got the inspiration for this idea. Although i do like this idea i feel it may be quite un original as many drama's are set in schools and i would like to do something a bit different.
