      2. Establish setting through use of wide shots and establishing shots in the beginning sequence
        1. so that audience can have an understanding of the location and the conditions of the area e.g. wealthy/poor?
      3. Build-up

              1. The death of Charlotte (the driver)
                1. How do the characters cope? - they all carry on as if it hadn't happened as she was never really in the group
                  1. Eventually the characters all grow apart as they cannot cope with what they have experienced - a true depiction of how friends handle these situations
              2. Events

                2. Ending
                  1. The trailer will end in a cyclical way. The same way series of events (waking up and going to school) will happen again although this time they will just smile at each other in the corridors
                    1. Friendships have all changed and moved on
                  2. Resolution
                    1. After all the arguments at the party everyone now knows how each other feels
                      1. They confide in each other but still remain distant
                        1. Meanwhile Emily has broken up with her boyfriend
