In the brief, the aim was to produce a British Social Realist film aimed at British 16 - 24 year olds. The aim of this was to how Film 4 what will be carried throughout the film, through the use of editing, sound and themes. The idea had to be original, meet the audiences expectations and also meet the conventions of a British Social Realist film.
The title of our film is 'Drained.' This is because, the main characters life is depressing and boring, with what seems to be extremely long days. A person with this type of lifestyle, would describe there own self as feeling drained. This is the main reason but we also thought that it linked in with the fact that she works in a laundrette, and washing machines drain water out during the process of washing, so that's how it fits in there. These characters are shown in all BSR films, so we have met the aim of the brief. I think that our main theme, violence was portrayed well, as at the end of the opening, we see the boss, grab the worker with aggression. We made sure that we didn't give away the theme too clearly, as we wanted the audience want to see more as we thought they would want to see how bad her situation becomes within the workplace. The main theme the audience wanted to see more of, was violence, which is what we discovered when doing our audience research.
Overall, we met the brief, by choosing a title appropriate and showing the theme clearly.
