Angus, Thongs And Perfect Snogging Opening Sequence

This is my research for Film Option 3, where the main protagonist is a teenager.

I like the way this sequence opens, throwing the audience straight into a situation. It has Georgia being followed by her dad in the car on her way to a party. She is coming as a stuffed olive. Once at the party, it has her being the only one who is dressed in a comical outfit, and she is laughed at by another girl, who is a bully. This straight away lets the audience know that Georgia is sometimes a victim of bullying.

Georgia confronts some of her friends, and in anger, she leaves the house. The opening credits then start to appear on the screen as Georgia runs home. The song is quite upbeat and the lyrics are about a girl and how lovely she is. It is a reference to Georgia's character as well. The titles also come up in girl style, with curves at the start and end of letters, and also, the i's also have bubbles on the top of them. This is the reason why i like the sequence.
