Male Suicides, Videos.

Here are some videos that are about suicides in men.



Didn't really like this film, though I understood it and what it was trying to bring across I don't think it's going to be very effective.

Briefs For BA2 Semester 1 Films.

NHS
  • The first film is going to help promote the 'Time to Change' campaign aimed at young people. This film can is about exploring mental health in young people and the perceptions of the general public towards mental health. The film should challenge the audience and perhaps help change perceptions and become more tolerant and understanding to the people who suffer from mental health problems. 
Royal Armouries
  • One amongst millions. The story of a local (?) man who fought in WWI. The film could be a vehicle to explore a vast array of moments during the war, a story of bravery or perhaps a story of the effects of shell shock. 
  • Call to arms. During WWI there was a lot of propaganda aimed at the general public to encourage them to enlist into the forces. However many believe that this propaganda stunt could be considered blackmail, many men felt pressured by friends and family to enlist, being called cowards if not willing to join the good fight.

Of all the briefs that have been handed out I think these three are the most interesting to explore!
