2. After much research, I have concluded
that i want to make a drama based
on mental health and schizophrenia.
This is a brain disorder that distorts
the way a person thinks, acts,
expresses emotions, perceives reality
and relates to others.
Short films tend to focus on key issues
rather than an actual story. I also
want to use my own music instead of
copyright tracks.
3. I wanted to highlight the issue of
growing schizophrenia in teens and
young adults.
People can have a very narrow opinion
of mental health disorders, just
brushing the sufferers off as a
‘weirdo.’
I want to combat that stereotypical
view and show that sufferers are just
the same as everybody else,
complex individuals.
4. I’m considering shooting a parallel
storyline where the subject is filmed
seeing or doing something but only
hinting at which event was reality
and which was fantasy.
I still have to make a poster and do
a review for the film, one of which
needs to be finished and posted by
early next week.
