Garage Band...using it for the first time

Today we practiced using garage band for the first time as the task requires us to construct our own score to accompany our preliminary task. We found it quite hard to use at first as we'd never experienced composing our own music before...and it showed!
But after we got to grips with the technology and the variety of music on there we faced another problem; we found it hard to decide what kind of music was conventional of a Teen Drama (the sub-genre of our preliminary task) whilst still matching the action on screen. After watching a collection of other teen dramas, such as Holly Oaks and Skins, we realised that a modern , 'funky' soundtrack was often used to appeal to the youthful target audience.
