My Pitch 'Day In The Life Of Lockdown'

 

For my Documentary i will be working independently to create it, i will be doing it about a day in the life of lockdown... with a slight twist! The coronavirus pandemic has caused exceptionally challenging and worrying times for each and every one of us, the effects of social distancing, lockdown, the loss of loved ones to the virus and the over consumption of stress inducing media reports is taking a huge toll on our mental healths and well being, more than two thirds of adults with mental health problems reported that there mental health has got worse over lockdown,  just over 1 in 10 reported experiencing suicidal thoughts or thoughts of hurting themselves in the first week of lockdown, My aim with this documentary is to film myself within the day with the negative side of lockdown, the struggle many people (well all of us really) but especially people with mental health have been struggling with since march, raising the awareness that you aren't alone in that situation, For this documentary my target audience would probably be 13 and over as i feel this certain topic isn't for a certain age group, its for anyone who needs it, In this documentary i shall be using Bill Nichols' expository documentary.
