• As a pair, we figured a romance will be extremely hard to pull off however we also realised that if filmed and edited well with a good story line, it would be a great success.

• As the director, I felt I would be able to relate more to a romance thus adding to the reason as to why we chose a the genre.

• Many things inspired us when coming up with the idea, such as “Sliding Doors”, “Just My Luck” and “About Time”; even real life situations that I had found myself to be in allowed me to add on to the ideas.
