Third Year Story Development

I have decided that I want to focus my story on depression, and the effects that emotionally draining situations can have one people leading them to alter their reality. Instead of the use of colour to show their feelings, I would like to use strong sound effects and what they hear instead of showing how the world really is.

My inspiration for this idea is from the film shown in the link below, it shows a way that someone can view their world and how disorientating it can be.

All 3D

Scene 1
Father sits in a sun lit hospital room, watching the face of his young daughter struggling to fight her illness.
“It only started out as a stomach ache”
His eyes keep flitting between her face and the heart monitor line showing every beat, all the while stroking her hand. Suddenly the line on the heart monitor flat lines, (the beeping noises continues) the fathers eyes dart to his little girls face just as her eyes begin to open.

Scene 2
Fades to scene of the father in the kitchen making breakfast (clothes worn, dishevelled look)
The table has two place settings, only one has any food on it. The dad picks up the tray and walks out of the room, past the living room filled with cards and flowers. A suit hangs up on the door. (Too indicate the daughters passing). The dad walks up the stairs and into a childs room with a name sign on the door. The room is empty; he places the breakfast tray on the bed. A sound of the shower can be heard from the en-suite, a shot of the dad walking past the slightly open door shows the shower to be off and empty.
(need more things for him to do, usual morning routine to look after his daughter)
-       Pack lunch
-       Pack school bag
-       Signing trip letter
-       Ect

Scene 3
Dads looks out of the window and sees an American style school bus pull up and beeps the horn, he runs up the stairs afraid that his daughter will miss the bus. He bursts into the room. The food still untouched and notices a piece of paper on the side of a funeral invite, he collapses on the bed in tears.
