Hello, I'm a high school student who recently directed one of my first short films. When I was assigned to create a short suspense film for a class at my school, I decided to really tap into something personal to me and capture some emotions that I'm accustomed to: anxiety, dread, anticipation, in an honest way that would also add to the suspense element that was part of my assignment.
I directed this film with the intent of telling the story through the perspective of a character with social anxiety. All of the actors in this film were people from my class who I knew, and the lead actor in particular was a huge help because he also struggled with social anxiety and his suggestions and performance really captures what I wanted as a director. I'd like to hear feedback from you on how effectively elements, such as how SA can affect daily activities, were conveyed and if you could personally relate to it.
