Abstract

This proyect tries to visualize some of the problems and situations that people with ADHD have, through a docufiction. In which, a character describes some of his experiences while he is on prision. Those experiences are about his life, how he discover the disorder, and how he deals with it at work; in that way the audience can know, how is the life of a pacient with ADHD. We decided to use docufiction, since in these style the director doesn´t participate as character in the film, which means that at docufiction people that don´t belong in the production team, are not the ones who participate in the story, in these case: actor and interviewed. To develop this proyect, we consider some of the phases that are part of the classic filmaking production process, like: dramatized and character creation, because these kind of aspects bring to the documentary more “visual quality”. In the pre-production we determined how the main character was going to be, so he could have a physical appearance, a social level and psychological features. For the last ones, it was requiered a long investigation about the major characteristics of person with ADHD and to wirte about his experiences, we interviewed pacients with the condition, with that we could select the most important aspects and included them later in the film. One of the issues that is presented in the movie is the conflict about the use or not consume of medication as a way of treatment. To expose the different judgments of the professionals, we applied colours psychology, so in accordance with their points of views, each doctor had a dissimilar colour. Having as a result a dinamic exposition, that not only allows the audience to analyze, but appreciate a harmony in the photography, the same one that will help them to visually distinguish the multiple standings from the doctors.
