On Friday the 12th of December 2014, our group pitched our idea to our teachers so they could hear our plot and make any critical comments that they felt necessary.
We told them things like our target audience, our tagline, the movie length etc. This gave them a detailed idea on how our thriller will be made, what we need to include and research into before starting to film.
We need to research into insanity/mental health issues to avoid the problem of complaints from people suffering with mental health or involved with someone with mental health problems and if we portray it wrong we could get many complaints filed.
To avoid this problem the girl in our thriller won't just be suffering from mental health issues. We came up with a back story to try and avoid this issue. In the mental health hospital she was admitted to, they tortured her, ignored her and made her condition worse, so her mental health is a lot worse than any other person. This allows us to be more abstract with our opening in how we decide to represent our character (Chloe Francis).
A website I looked at to understand the representations of mental health is:
