Research Qs

What type of company distributes your chosen films?
The production company that created 'Juno' is Mandate Pictures, this production company is known for creating comedy films that are directed to a young audience, with films such as 'This Is The End', '50/50', and some of the 'Harold and Kumar' movies. These few comedic films mentioned are some of Mandate Pictures' most popular films.
'Ferris Bueller's Day Off', is distributed by Paramount Pictures, who are a very popular company which make a wide variety of films.
'Easy A' is produced by Screen Gem films, who also make a range of different types of films, they have made films directed at a young adult type of audience, such as 'Friends With Benefits', and "About Last Night'.
'The Breakfast Club' is produced by a company called A&M films, who also make a wide range of movies.
'Boyz In Da Hood', is made by a company named Columbia Pictures, who are very popular and have produced some of the most popular films in the industry.

What are audience expectations for these films?
The audience of these types of films would most likely be young adults, so with being a teenager, the direction of the films wouldn't be too dramatic, the beginning of these films usually have an uplifting playful piece of music at the beginning that will ease the viewer in to relax and enjoy, the beginning of these films sets the viewer to see the film as fiction and not take it too serious, so with the comedic effect also, the films shouldn't be taken too seriously. With a viewer knowing they are going to see a teen movie, they should probably expect to see the main character(s) being teenagers. School is a common theme in teen movies, so it should be no surprise to a teenager who might see a school in the film. Teenage love and rebellion is also something that a viewer may expect, also parents and teachers would make it a traditional teen movie, so the audience should expect some of the main themes in a teenagers life to be implicated into the film
