    The audio we will use needs to be teenager 2016 related. I looked on pinterest for vision boards of 2016 teenage beach girl aesthetics and made a playlist that put me in the mood of the film opening scene. I listened to this playlist while brainstorming the storyboard and have added to it ever since. 

    In the beginning scene of Sammy packing her beach bag, the song "walking on a dream" by Empire of the sun will be playing. We chose this song since it is an upbeat summer vibes song. This song will fade out as the dialogue starts. On the walk along the beach, vicky will turn up the speaker and diegetic music will fade in. This audio will be "we are the people" by the Empire of the sun. This is an upbeat song that will fit well with Vicky and Sophia's extrovert personalities and upbeat energy that Vicky and Sophia bring once they enter the scenes.

    This song will match their vibes visually as well, since Vicky and Sophie wear bright colors and pink make up. Sammy will look and feel a bit left out not knowing the words to the song like Vicky and Sophie will. The opening scene is mostly making Sammy look like the odd one out in subtle ways, and suggesting that she is trying everything she can to fit in, even if it includes illegal activity.
