Emilly's idea

I am thinking ahead, in terms of our film.

We need a central theme - our theme can be “choice” which we will convey through;
  • Compiling a series of shots of a subject (the main character) who faces daily challenges which eventually spiral him/her into depression (financial stress, grades, relationships etc)
    we see him/her as he/she walks down a lonely path, passing one of our campaign posters and looks at it, thinking. Fades...
  • He/she makes the choice not to seek help and takes the leap off the block/bridge etc, at which point we freeze frame. Text appears, something like “until now, you had a choice.” [Black screen] “Don't wait until it's too late. Help is available” (or whatever).
  • The audience is then taken back to the subject gazing at the poster, and they realise he hasn't jumped, it was only a daydream. He has decided to seek help..

The better idea we have of our film the better we will be.
