III.  Concept | Storyline:

       1). Who are you going to interview? Or What is the piece (article, poem, story) for the narrative voice over?  

There are four people in this story. Three of them are good friends, and there is only one being isolated. We can tell the isolated one Annika, Annika tried everything she can to make her looks like the friends of that three girls. But finally lost herself because she changed her lot during the process of assimilating into that little group.These kinds of phenomenon is common to see in nowadays society, so I want to use this video to reflect the deep thinking behind these things.

  • . What’s the story about? 

 It’s about a person who want to be friends with others, so she wants to do everything the same with them.But it’s so hard for her. Finally, she decides to be herself.

  • . Which part of the story are you going to focus on?
