Pod Meeting

Yesterday our class met in the pods at the Media Center with other classmates to discuss the progress of our projects. It was very helpful to brainstorm with other people I haven't talked to yet and although we are kind of changing the direction of our project I think it will come out very well. 

We decided to change our idea to a psychological thriller. Our main character gets diagnosed with PTSD and has been having paranoia since his parents death. He suffers from hallucinations and flashbacks so the viewer never really knows if what he's experiencing is real or not. We decided to start off the film with a pov shot of him in a waiting room of a new therapist office, trying anything to help his condition feeling that everything is hopeless and nothing will ever work. He wakes up and his name is being called by the therapist and thats when he starts having severe hallucinations. The viewer isn't sure what exactly is wrong with him but they know something is up. 

I think this idea could be very good and we will obviously continue to work with it. This will allow us to work with different techniques to have a "trippy" effect and I believe it will come out very well.
