Depict idea



90 second short film




My 90 second short film will be about a man living with mental health issues. It will start with him waking up to an alarm clock and show his daily routine of getting up, getting ready and eating breakfast. It will be narrated by a voice telling him what to do and how to think. As the film goes on the voices will get more apparent and disturbing.The film will mostly be shot from his point of view to give an insight into what it would be like for someone who suffers from severe paranoia. After leaving his house the protagonist will get on a bus where he feels he is being watched by numerous people who are also on the bus. The voice will be telling him that people are plotting against him and that they want to kill him. As he walks through the corridors of college the voices will get louder and his paranoia will increase. On screen you will see people following him. This scene will be shot using a range of close ups and extreme close ups of his face. He will appear nervous by twitching and holding his head. He runs into a dark room where he starts to cry while breathing heavy and starts to pace around the room. Someone else is in the room with him (himself/his paranoia) who tells him to self harm. The film ends with him grabbing a knife.
