Pre-production (Planing documentary)

                                            Plan

We had some ideas on what are documentary should be about and we came up with a  couple of ideas 
  • Anorexia 
  • The media shows people size 4-6 , influencing kids, adults and mainly women to become a size six is the best size to be.
  • little do people know that with their new size comes a increase in health problems 
Aim- The whole reason why we want to do a documentary on anorexia is to help raise awareness on this on going issue that is affecting many people in the world of today. to also tell the audience that anorexia has increased in the past 10 years.


anorexia does effect an individual but can also effects there friends and family, anorexia can lead to a lot of depression and other various situations that they are faced with.
T.V.- fashion: everyone is influenced one way or another by either what they hear/see or experience, so this affects there whole intake on what they think about anorexia and looking slim is the best possible to look beautiful.
Magazines are also a big impact on why anorexia is increasing, they show pictures of  super slim women posing for the front cover and if they are not on the front cover the pictures are sometimes in the middle of the magazine so either way you come across the pictures,and give articles on looking good. 


The Internet - this is a major part of why anorexia is increasing. adverts on the internet for example Facebook on the side of the web page, they advertise things like "how to become a size 6 in just 6 weeks", this makes people want to know more and because more and more people are weight conscious they click on the advertisement and start to learn new ways of losing weight, don't get me wrong losing weight is not a problem but the amount people lose that is the problem. YouTube also advertises most of its stuff on the videos people watch, it does exactly the same thing Facebook does but in a different way; through video.


Anorexia is an eating disorder where people starve themselves. Anorexia usually begins in young people around the onset of puberty. Individuals suffering from anorexia have extreme weight loss. Weight loss is usually 15% below the person's normal body weight. People suffering from anorexia are very skinny but are convinced that they are overweight. Weight loss is obtained by many ways. Some of the common techniques used are excessive exercise, intake of laxatives and not eating.

Anorexics have an intense fear of becoming fat. Their dieting habits develop from this fear. Anorexia mainly affects adolescent girls.
Our Final Plan:


Anorexia ------> Basic Facts -----------> Personal ---------> Facts from a professional
