The American Pie and The Breakfast Club analysis

This American Pie title sequence gives us an insight on how we want to set our High School teen comedy/Drama film. The sequence illustrates the teen years through the use of lined paper and doodles throughout which is something we would like to put into our sequence, the light hearted music also gives a playful, youth feel to the sequence. The breakfast club has a title sequence which stereotypically represents teens within high school, the aspect of them highlighting teens within their high school years, for example 'the nerd' 'the princess' and 'the jockey'. The use of bold red typography throughout American Pies sequences allows the sense of High School to be shown, this is due to it bringing youth and emphasis a high school drama as it is also an important colour in High school films such as High School musical. From both the American Pie and Breakfast club title sequences we have came to conclusion we want to base our sequence around these, with the use of bold, vibrant colours to represent the youthful times of High School and the stereotypical representation of characters labelled throughout our sequence. We want to stick to conventional aspects of High School comedy/dramas with the high school yearbook, bold colours and the use of doodles throughout.
