Synopsis of Teen Comedy

 Alter Ego

I chose this name as my teen comedy film opening is about a teenage girl who metaphorically lives a double life. She is the 'perfect daughter' in her family life at home, the golden child. In her parents eyes she can do no wrong, she has good grades, good manners, dresses sensibly and always makes the right decisions. However when her parents are out the house or when she is at school she is a completely different person. She is the most popular girl in school, who gets good grades by cheating on tests and is really a spiteful popular high school girl. She dresses and acts differently when she not around her parents. The audience will be introduced to this early on in my opening scene as she begins to be spiteful to her parents when they barge into her room. She quickly covers it up though when she opens the door and sweetly says "Love you" with an innocent smile.

The opening scene is set in the bedroom of 16 year old Sydney. She has just woken up on her birthday. She wakes up and messes around in her room, exited about her birthday. Her parents and little brother walk into the room, making a big deal about her birthday. Sydney gets fustrated by this and her more spiteful starts to show through when she talks back to her parents and slams the door in their face. Sydney realises she was out of place with her parents and decides to open the door and tell them she loves them before slamming the door once again.
