after discussing our change in genre we decided to research into what films and tv dramas would be the biggest influences to our work. we looked for three main features;
- production: we looked at many dramas and found that they were based in America or even further afield. this was not a problem but we felt we should look at more English dramas and films to see the changes in style and technique.
- reception: most of the things we watched were created in the mid 80's but some were not. we needed to see how well received they were by the audience and critics because we did not want to create a film which would then be a flop and not make it as a film. most of the criticism was good for the modern day films and TV dramas. this was good as it meant we would be able to run with this idea
- style: in order to create a more realistic piece we had to base our work around others without copying them. for this we had to pick what films or dramas would most influence our piece. after a lot of research we decided that our two biggest influences would be the 2004 Starsky and Hutch film and the 2007 TV drama Life on Mars.
