Planning: Rough Daft of the Plot

 Intro

On this week we started planning what we are going to work on for our chosen brief, we already have the genre and sub-genre checked and some of the main plot done. For our film we want to create a message that can get through the mind of young people bringing out awareness about mental illnesses that go underground on a daily basis.

Planning

For the film we chose the title of PARANOIA which  is an intense, irrational, and persistent distrust or suspicion that others are trying to harm, deceive, or persecute you, often without evidence.

Our plot starts with our main character Lilly which is secretly mentally ill and sees shadowy figures that scare her and drive her to madness. The first shot we are taking is of Lilly on her bed waking up , but she is in a sleep paralysis for a few seconds that is enough to get her in a worried mood and be paranoid. After that we have a sequence where Lilly  is getting ready to leave her house , however she keeps seeing this shadowy figure all around her house, and it gets to the point where she cant take it and runs out the house to her car to hurry up to her appointment with her therapist.

While at the therapist Lilly keeps seeing  the shadowy figure which means that even though she seems in a a safe place with a professional she still gets haunted by an entity that she cant control. After being with the therapist for a while Lilly goes and hangout with his best friend Alejo to try to calm herself down , but as she spend more time with him she starts to hear the sound queue of the shadowy figure and her paranoia is at its peak making her do something against  her own will. 

Overview

This is the rough draft of our plot this means that we can edit whatever we want as we go through to make it to the 2 minute mark. By now we already have an initial form of how out film is going to be looking like and what we will be trying to convey and get a message through. We believe that we can make this a good film and reach our goals.
