TREATMENT
From the protagonist’s point of view, so the world is more exaggerated at the beginning but as the film progresses and he realizes the imperfections of the world the his world becomes more normal and less exaggerated. The school would be the setting for the film because all of the characters are students. The parts of the film were the team are making the film will be very chaotic with uneasy camera angles and a lots of background noise.
