As previously mentioned in the Research Into Conventions post, I intend to make a Participative Documentary about Fighting Burnout.
Story
I will use my Mom’s experience and will also convey to the audience the perspective of a relative living under the same roof with the burnout sufferer.
Storyline
- Opening:
- I would start by defining burnout and giving some statistics about its incidence nowadays;
- then I would present myself (as the host of the show) and disclose the source for the documentary’s idea.
- 2nd Act:
- describing the experience lived by my mother and myself before deciding that it was time to revisit our vision for our future and make a radical change in our lives;
- in order to create the contrast between the current normal life and our hectic past, I am imagining the shooting in a parc, while I am walking and contemplating the life around me; my story will follow the scenery through VO.
- Closing
- I intend to have an interview with my mother, who will share with the audience her steps done to overcome burnout and regain control over our lives.
