Individual Proposal

Proposal.

My short film is about your true self or how people expect you to be. It will start off with someone walking and coming across a building, the person goes into the building and finds a hidden room that people don't know about (dark or dim lighting) the room is  empty except for a single mirror. The person walks up to the mirror and looks into it. The mirror shows who you truly are (something you might be ashamed of or shunned by society) or who people think you should be how society see you (stereotyped) the reflection could be static or glitching because you are trying to push it back and not accept it. (Might have text appear on screen saying that the reflection is not you).After you see this you leave and think if they should tell someone about it but decide to keep it to yourself.  

There will be 1-2 people in this short film depending on how I set it out I might make the reflection look like the person just wearing different clothes that might suit their true self, or change the person completely in the reflection so it looks like a completely different personality, The story will be a linear story with a single strand and closed ending.

The effects I might use is static when we see the reflection so it like the person is trying to forget or push it back (denying who they are).Transition will be fading. The sounds will be diegetic and non-diegetic, the diegetic sounds will be when they stumble or kick a can. And the non-diegetic sound will be the background music playing when you see the mirror and see your true self. (Violin music sad or drastic)

The film is aimed at 12+ it is suited for all no matter what gender, sexuality, or religion it is for everyone to help them realize they should except who they are and not deny it because in the end it will only  make them bitter.
