I would say, and so would Mrs Williams, that Chick Flicks are all a version of Cinderella where a poor, lonely girl experiences a transformation, normally with the help of a friend (Fairy Godmother) and meets the man of their dreams in an unlikely situation (The Royal Ball).
The first Chick Flick could be Cinderella however, it was made into a film by Disney much later than it was published as a book. According to IMDB (Internet movie database) 'Gone With The Wind' is earliest example of a Chick Flick which was released in 1939.
http://www.examiner.com/article/history-of-chick-flicks The history of the Chick Flick genre started when Hollywood made its entrance to society. They were originally called "Women's Pictures" supposedly named due to the obvious aim to appeal to women. The producers, directors and writers of the stories began with the simple, "boy meets girl, girl and boy fall in love, boy finds her again just in time for the credits to roll". Despite the fact that all the films were the same and very predictable, the box office still earned more money with this genre than anything else in the theatre! The top grossing Chick Flick of all time is 'Sex and The City' which on the opening weekend domestic gross of $56,848,056 - almost 20 million more than any other chick flick to date!
I could use the 'Cinderella-esque' approach to Chick Flicks, and the way that they follow the simple boy meets girl method where the storyline is simple but effective. They are all generally orientated around the colour pink, especially 'Sex and The City' and the lighting is bright and happy to create a pleasant atmosphere which I will very carefully consider in my own introduction.

"My daughter wrote all these sketches and built these puppets with moving parts and she’s downstairs shooting with her friends,” she said, “and I know that all around the country there’s tons of women making their own projects in a doityourself kind of way.”
I haven't posted my personal Youtube Channel on here yet and I thought that I could as more people could get to see the other kind of things that I enjoy and can edit together!

I was watching this film the other day after never seeing it before (It's now one of my favourite films) and I thought about this introduction and I really liked the simplicity of it and of how the title of the film is used in a sentence which then leads onto the rest of the film. I think that a voice over is a good idea, however this may be difficult to do. Here is the introduction which takes place at Heathrow Airport:
