Research and Planning/ How The Rave Scene is a Film Drama

• The Rave Scene is about social issues such as drug use within rave culture. The story is also told through working class characters, teenagers who are considered more exposed to an unconventional life, living on a council estate where there is a sense of community amongst the youth but also dark authoritative characters which create a hierarchy within it, this creates conflicts another Film Drama convention.
• As an audience we follow the development of Kelly's characters and learn lessons with her as she grows up, from a shy, timid character to a love up raver and then teen mum. Her journey as well as other characters emotionally make the audience attached to their stories and effect the viewer, through the development of the plots and narratives.
• There are many climaxes and anti climaxes in the narrative, for example we are convinced Kelly and Ant will end up together, but Kelly is still in love with Donovan and this break Ant's heart, this could dishearten the audience because Ant's a sweet, vulnerable character.  We have the climax of Kelly's happiest moments when she has finally found a crowd she fits in with and we see her loving relationships with Donovan, Ant and Georgia as a substitute for the loss of her mother.
• I think have chosen an alternative ending rather than a cliché one. Kelly's ending is bitter sweet, her teen pregnancy socially has negative connotations but for her character she see's at as a fresh start to be a great mother like her own. Donovan is a likeable character and one we route for when he is first introduced. His beginning and ending is a hugely contrasted because he is no longer respected and we assume he carries on taking harder drugs, the audience are left to make up their own minds on what happens to him. After what happens to Georgia we expect her and the rest of the group to never go to another rave again however they seem to have moved on and carry on going to raves, but I think after Georgia's overdose this brings her closer to Tony, Jen and Ant even more so than before.
