By looking at mean girls this enabled us to choose our different types of clicks within our characters, for example:
Cher - The Plastics (Regina George)
Lola -The Plastics (Gretchen Wieners)
Sara -The Plastics (Karen Smith)
Matt - Popular Boy/Jock (Aaron Samuels)
Chris - Quite Popular/Music Student
Lewis - College Drop Out
We got the ideas of having different clicks of people together from the film mean girls, however we linked our characters into one big group.

To end the film there will be a title, showing a table with booze bottle's and cans and cigarettes, then we will use flour to represent powdered drugs and our title (UNRIVALED) will be written in the powder. Throughout the film we will have up beat music to represent a teenage party lifestyle.
