The narrative will consist of a silent narrator and questions will appear on the screen, to make the film seem more personal. At the beginning it sets up the documentary with the interviewer talking about eating disorders on a normal street surrounded by average people. Then it will lead on to random people being asked what does the word “it” (what sufferers refer to their eating disorder as) mean to them, and then develop to what the word means to those affected by eating disorders. It next develops by showing how such a small thing which most of us take for granted, e.g. eating can mean and be so much more to another person.Then they introduce the place where people go for help. They continue the exploration by talking to the people there and then sufferers who tell of their journeys. The Interviews are the most important events in the film. The ending will conclude on returning to ask other people what the word “it” means to them, and then contrast it with those who it does affect. To conclude the interviewer asks about their thoughts on life now and the future as they see it.
PLANNING FRAME
| Characters | Predominantly female, some male. Recovering eating disorder patients. Who will be in film, and purpose: Those who have experienced eating disorders will feature and tell of their journeys, what led to it, what got them through it etc. As to evoke emotion, inform audience of what’s behind eating disorders, and to show how the smaller things mean so much more. |
| Setting | Some filming would have to be done on the street to film those not affected by eating disorders to make it more casual. Filming of the E.D interviews could be in any room, as long as it had the same backdrop. It would be a bit impractical to film on the street so perhaps we could take the random interviewees into one of the rooms for a more practical filming location. |
| Events | The narrative will consist of a silent narrator and questions shall just appear on the screen, to make it seem more personal, or a one on one interview with the interviewer being behind the camera. The film will start on an introduction with random people being asked what does the word “it” mean to them, and then develop to what the word means to those affected by eating disorders. It will develop by showing how such a small thing taken for granted can mean and be so much more for another person. |
| Problem | Eating disorders and people who suffer with it. |
| Resolution | The ending will conclude on returning to ask other people what the word “it” means to them, and then contrast it with those who it does affect. |
| Conclusion | How they are now - what they expect of the future |
