Planning


The script Social media and Your life 
Social media is the biggest revolution, and it changed everything. It made a significant impact on various kind of industries during the last couple of years. 

This impact affected to young generation so much. However, we cannot say it happened in the wrong way or the right way. However, we could say it changed all of our lifestyles.
At the beginning of social media, it was such an important to have. Everyone started to connect, it was a happy place, and everybody loved it. It helped us to connect with our family and our love once. It helped us to meet new people, start new relationships and friendships. It was an excellent thing to have at that time. 

Day by day, it started to get worse. Now it's not a pleasant thing to have for some of us. 

Some people start to fade up about their social media. Some people shut down their social media and start to think about their privacy. In 2018 Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg had to attend to a congress testimony because of sharing peoples' privacy and data to advertisers.

Moreover, that is not the only problem we have from social media. There are terrorist activities, suicidal attempts, suicidal threats, cyberbullying and violence spread all over the world throughout the social media. Teenagers and young people are the primary target audience, those who share these kinds of things in social media.

The reason for that is, they start to believe whatever from social media they see is real. They are missing out lots of things from their lives. They think they are connecting with people, but they are not. 

They glue to their social media and missing those great things to do in their lives. 
Furthermore, we met a college student, and ask about what is he thinking about "How young generation deal with their social media life". 

Sometimes we heard the news about "A teenage boy killed himself because cyberbullying" or "A teenage girl kidnapped by a stranger who met her in social media"; who wants to hear a news something like that?

Social media addiction is a huge problem. Adults and teenagers both suffer from this addiction. However, some people understand this and decided to beware from their social media.
 Sad to say, but, some people did not even understand the addict to social media. They are spending hours and hours and could not even realise how much they addicted to it.

A 2018 study found there are 3.1 billion social media users and around 210 million users recognised they are suffering from social media addiction. Every day this situation is getting worse.
 As humans, we have to help each other. If you see somebody suffer this, reach them ask do they need your help, or go outside and see the world, enjoy your life. 
However, we cannot say that social media is 100% useless. There are so many benefits and opportunities we have from it. The thing is that most of us could not realise that, and we had not managed the time we had spent in it.

Evaluation

I think documentary project a very important project to have. It helped me in different ways. And I like to explain that one by one. First of all, during a documentary project idea development is such important thing to do, because this idea can be affecting the audience directly. So, at that point it’s important to have a good idea and good research to continue this project . If I explain my idea again, I needed to talk about how social media can affect to our life. Especially, teenagers and students. And for talk about that, I needed to have statics and evidences. So, I researched into websites and documentaries which are providing the details I was looking for. After collecting that data, I wrote my script. For the script I used research results (online survey) as well. Meanwhile, I did an example interview. And it was my first professional interview.

Documentary Proposal This documentary is based on social media. I believe there’s positive way in social media. But I’m going to explain how social media affect you in a negative way than positive way. Mainly, I would talk about social media addiction and fake account/ fake celebrities. Social media addiction is a major topic everybody talks about and consider about, even in medical industry. It’s providing day by day there’s an addiction, people glue into their social media. So, I’m going to explore the major point of that and include that information to interviews. Then, it could be helps to prove the points which I mentioned above. The audience is age 15 and above audience. I’m expecting they would understand there’s a bad and dark side in social media; it is growing every day, every minute. So, we all need to have a barrier to social media. They would understand there’s life beyond social media. I hope they would start to enjoy their life more than before. Personally, I hat...
