Our opening sequence consists of one main character - Who is a student. We have chosen to put him in stereotypical high school student clothes (hoodie, shirt, bag, black jeans/trousers and trainers) as this makes it clear to the audience that he is a student and immediately gives the audience a hint to his age and the sort of person he is. We also chose to revolve our opening sequence around him and his journey to school as we thought that this would be very effective in representing his 'social class' and making it clear to the audience that he is a student.
We tried to make it as obvious as possible that our protagonist is a usual teenager at sixth form that follows the majority of the conventions. The clothes we put him in are very closely associated to that of a 'normal' teenager these days and it also allows us to portray that he is a sixth former very easily. Furthermore, the fact that our main character doesn't speak throughout the entire opening sequence, apart from when you hear his voice through a voiceover, could suggest that he is very nervous as he is starting a new school and doesnt want to make a bad impression or say the wrong thing. This also develops the stereotypical 'new boy' at school as they always seem to be really shy and quite.
