Girl Of The Sun: Statement of intent

Introduction:
Girl Of The Sun will be a teen sci-fi series about a young 15 year old girl who discovers that she has strange powers. During this period of time she gets followed home and decides to confront this person; in doing so the unintentionally unlocks her powers potential and knocks her stalker unconscious. She returns home to her mother and her mother explains to her that she is from a planet that was destroyed and that her family sent her to earth to survive. In this series the main character goes on finding out about herself and experiences many emotionally tormenting events. My 2 minute extract will play at the very beginning of episode 7.

Media Language and Representation
I intend to have 4 locations in which i will film 14 different characters including extras. I will use at least 15 camera shots with a variety of angles and there will be both diegetic and non-diegetic sounds in this production. I intend to use a non-diegetic sound track within the entirety of the 2 minute extract and i shall overlay the sound with some diegetic sound being the explanation given by Alisa's mother. The main character Alisa will subvert female stereotypes as she has been created to be the hero of her own story along with being a strong person she challenges the ongoing female stereotype of being weak and having to be saved.

Audience
The target audience for this series is families of the working class. I believe that my series can created familiarity as it is filmed mainly in the streets of London and this will help to connect with working class families from ages 8-50. If people likes watching Smallville- a series about superman- or marvels gifted/ marvels Inhumans i believe they will like this series as it will give audience pleasures such as identification- as it is in a familiar living area- diversion- as it is quite entertaining and has an intriguing story- and relationships as the story allows you to truly connect and empathise with Alisa and her story.
