Brainstorming which scene to recreate (Research)

Coming up with and agreeing on a scene for our swede was surprisingly easy, given that my group decided on the Mean Girls (Get in Losers, we are going Shopping) scene.

How we came up with this specific scene was quite a process. First, we talked about a genre that we would all be interested in. In the beginning, we picked horror/mystery, which then looked at scenes from Scream. But quickly found out there's a better genre that fits us better. We wanted a comedy scene that talks to our age and is popular. We started to look toward a twilight piece. It checked off all our boxs that we wanted within this swede. But, we kept our options open and didn't settle for the first option. Once we talked about 2-3 scenes from Mean Girls, we knew this was what we wanted to do. Next, we needed to narrow down the scenes we picked out. Which was easy since 2/3 didn't really give us much motion within the cinematography aspect. So, we decided on a 2:15 scene of Mean Girls called Get in Loser, we're going shopping. But that was just the start. Now we need to start analyzing the 5 main concepts within the film so we can clearly understand what and how we need to create our swede.
