Revising last week

   This past week I really thought out with my family what I should do about this project. Last week as I mentioned I had the idea of doing a criminal doing his killings with a specific ritual. Although this idea seemed original and would be interesting to watch, I find it to be a little explicit and I wouldn't want it to be too sensitive for the audience. For this project, my target audience will be all ages as more of an educational and POV of a person with OCD.
 
   I had also discussed about the genre being horror and that will still be the case but more minor. In the other one i focused on horror because to was going to be a criminal scene but now i will still try to make the disorder be scary, because it is. OCD is not something one wishes to have as it can get too obsessive for some and even ruin their day and how their routines go. So, I will still try to incorporate a little bit of horror showing how scary it is and including some voices haunting the character with OCD.
 
   My film will also be a mixture of comedy and drama. Comedy because it will show how ridiculous some of these rituals are and how stressed the character becomes. Although it is not a laughing matter, bringing in some crazy rituals can catch the audience attention. Now, drama will also be a part of this film as it shows the dramatic conditions that the character goes through as some of the rituals are not performed the way they "should". The character will be seen as dramatic but really it is extremely tough for the people who are affected by OCD.
 
   I am glad I finally narrowed down to what I want my film to be about and this week I have been adding some ticks that the OCD character will be doing in my film. My dad is still going to be the character as of now. But, I am still not sure how to fit in all the ticks I thought about in a two minute video. That will be discussed as be start planning each scene.
 
   I researched different types of OCD's as there are many. I will begin the video by explaining the misconception of OCD as many people believe it's just germaphobe. But in reality, i can to find to there are several different types that aren't noticed. So that is what I will be filming. My OCD character will have an obsession over checking over and over again his things and doing stuff in a strategic manner. I researched and found what I want my character to feel:


"Obsessions are typically accompanied by intense and uncomfortable feelings such as fear, disgust, doubt, or a feeling that things have to be done in a way that is “just right.”"
