Bachelor Australia - Matt Agnew - Season 7 - Media SM - NO Discussion - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Bobette wrote:NEW GAME:

Who do we think will be getting "Meet Bla Bla" clips on Twitter?  Historically these are unlikely to be F1; more likely bitches/weirdos/sex vamps/sweetheart characters but there's often an F3 in there too so something to watch out for.

My guesses:

Rachel or Georgina

Yoga Belle

White crochet or Vakoo

One shoulder/Chelsea (?) [can't wait till we confirm whether it's her or not so I can stop putting the (?) after her name  If it is Chelsea they'll be foregrounding her career as an engineer IMO so people will automatically assume he'll pick a fellow nerd.

If not One Shoulder then Sogand for the same reason ^

OK, now you.  

ETA:  Just looked up who got intro tweets for past seasons:

[In chronological tweeted order from first to last]

Matty:
Tara F3
Leah
Elora
Cobie

Nick:
Brooke F3
Cass
Vanessa
Dasha

Richie:
Olena F3
Megan
Alex
Keira

Holy cow look at that pattern with F3s ALWAYS being tweeted first!  Imma check the Bachelorette tweets now to see if it's the same thing there. Maybe I shouldn't have said anything - they might change the pattern now just to spite me.  

OK so wow this is really interesting.  Bette F1 or F2 has been featured pre-show on Twitter EVERY season.

[In chronological order:]  

Ali:
Charlie
Dan
Todd F2
Apollo

Sophie:
Blake
Jarrod F2
Apollo

Georgia:
Cam
Lee F1
Clancy
Sam

Sam F:
Michael F2 was the ONLY one tweeted about individually.

I don't want to over state my discovery here, but I imagine this is how Einstein felt when he worked out the Theory of Relativity.  

Copying to Bette forum for future reference...

Snez F1
3rd girl shown in the start of episode flash-forward
First girl out of limo
Noticeably special music, long meeting chat, ITM moment gushing about Lead

Lana F2
Intruder - not shown in episode 1.

Sarah F3
Full intro video before limo arrivals
Second out of limo

Blake

Sam F1
Third intro video. Shown at a family BBQ - same as Blake's intro vid
Second out of limo
Long meeting chat, ITM gushing about Lead

Lisa F2
Very brief meeting chat - hardly anything shown. No ITM comments from either of them after meeting.

[Interesting that F3 (and subsequent Blake G/F) Louise got a much longer meeting conversation including a prop (cocktail)]

Tim

Anna F1
First intro video - focus on her education/career and the fact that she's never had a boyfriend
Really far down the order of girls arriving (I actually lost count)
Noticeably special music, long meeting chat, ITM moment gushing about Lead.

Rochelle F2
Before Anna - short meeting chat, nothing noteworthy at all

So statistically I saw no real pattern regarding order out of the limo, BUT, there are some very clear consistencies across all 3 seasons I watched:

ALL F1s have a long meeting chat with Lead. Most have special music as they are walking up. ALL have an ITM immediately after where they are absolutely gushing about the Lead, complimenting their looks/personality etc. They all look flushed and giddy with excitement/happiness. They then cut back to the Lead saying something positive about F1. Immediately after this the F1 is often shown walking into the room of girls and how they are received by/interact with the others.

ALL F1s are shown to be nervous and slightly awkward/goofy (Sam tripped, Snez forgot to ask Sam's name, Anna with lipstick on her teeth). They all comment on their "mistakes"/goofs in their post-meeting ITM. This may be a uniquely Australian thing - Aussies do love our humour and "dagginess" IMO - or it could just be a general way of showing the F1s as vulnerable/"real people" and endearing the audience to F1 right from the start.

So that's what I'll be watching for on episode 1 (especially in relation to Elise and Laura).

In particular I will be looking for this very specific editing sequence:

1. Girl meets Matty, possible special music while walking up
2. Long chat during which girl is awkward in some way
3. ITM of girl immediately after, gushing about Matty and commenting on her awkwardness
4. Cuts back to Matty who says something positive about girl
5. Back to girl entering the mansion, showing how she is received by others.

ETA: Details for Season 4

Richie

Alex F1
Beautiful slow romantic music with "fairy sparkle" noises.
Laughing, breathless giggling
Another great dress!
She is nervous. Reads her poem. Ugh.
Loooong chat
ITM of Richie saying she played on his heart strings
Shown looking back at Richie
GUSHES about him in ITM
Richie says wow (laugh out loud) and says how amazing she looks in another ITM
Shown talking about her meeting with the other girls.
She is the last one before the ad break.

Nikki F2
First girl out of the limo
Special "crescendo" music
Spectacular dress!
She is nervous. Long chat
ITM of Richie talking about her
Shown looking back and saying "wow" (laugh out loud)
ITM of Nikki talking about Richie
Shown walking into the mansion

Olena F3
Sparkly music
Richie says wow about 17 times laugh out loud
She mentions attacking with the eyes
Stunning outfit!
Shown walking into the mansion

Summary: VERY similar edits here for Nikki and Alex, it really could have been either of them based on these intros IMO. The edits for Nikki/Alex are very similar to Tara/Laura actually, esp considering Tara was first out of the limo like Nikki.
