AICE Media Studies

 The Genre we chosen is Comedy as it is the most open and fun to work with as the conventions are easy to break as it is suppose to be broken as comedy is a free world as when used with other genres it tells a great story.

One inspiration we will have is the Barbie movie as it cleverly uses both the drama and comedy genre to tell it's amazing story. So we will hide the serious story beets in the comedy but not lower the importance of the plot point which is the hard part of taking Drama elements into a Comedy. (The image lie to me)

One of the main motivations in the story was the amount of things that have changed within 15 years of evolving human technology and trends. Two sailors who had embarked on the sea for 15 years finally Sea World as it is. Meanwhile, on their adventure, they cause a multitude of problems while they travel through the big
