idea development

idea's part 2

after talking with the group today there are a lot of concerns that a reflexive mental health documentary is not best for us as it is too much and too sensitive, this has caused a great deal of tension within the group. but we have now agreed to instead do a documentary based on raising awareness for students with anxiety and how they cope, the mechanisms they use and how the university is doing with supporting their various different needs.

as well as finally settling on a topic for our documentary we also decided on roles within the group. lorna will be co-directing with me as well as camera man, donna will be on sound, savina will be cinematographer and I will co-direct and produce as I am very confident in a producer role. I feel very happy with these roles as I feel every member of the team is playing to their strengths.

I am far more confident with this idea for the documentary as I feel it is far more achievable. my next step will be to find out statistics for anxiety and the larger picture of the illness.
