We used a handheld device as a prop at the beginning of our film when the alarm goes off on it. This represents it is up to date and cool because iPhones are very popular with the teenage target audience. This means it is also relatable as many of the target audience will have alarms set on their phones/electrical devices as well. It represents the modern day world our film is set in. Films such as wild child all use technology. This is because they are trying to address the audience in a modern way and keep them attracted.
We also included a scene with cigarettes in. This was when Jay was outside the school with his friend. We decided to incorporate the use of cigarettes as this is a teenage issue especially in this modern world. Stereotypical it is seen to be done by people of lower class now, this is why we chose Jay and his group to do it. We compared jays group to the T birds
in Grease, this is because both groups smoke to look 'cool' and tough.
Throughout our film we uses backpacks and handbags this was because we wanted to allow our audience to relate to the characters and recognise that they are students who attend college. After research we had found that this prop is used in almost every teen angst film. Films such as high school musical, Angus thongs and perfect snogging and mean girls all use bags. This is because most teen angst films are based within a school.
