It is a good idea and we found a girl who has a anorexia but she didn't’t
want to expose her body as we have shot in front of the mirror which
involves nudity.
So we kept the same idea, but changed it into B U L I M I A .
As we have friends that are skinny and accepted the idea of acting like they
have bulimia in our opening sequence.
Anorexia Bulimia
12. W h y c h o s e n t h is G e n r e ?
Part C
• We choose this genre because it involves settings or life
situations that portray realistic characters with lots of
emotions which we can relate to it or attempt to
understand...
• and having the theme bulimia we can portray lots of
emotions as it is a real life issue.
• To make more exciting and bring out the audience
emotions we decided to add thriller to get them more
involved and as thriller leaves that mysterious moments it
will be easier to create enigma on our opening sequence.
