Bellefonte man gets two new lungs
The Axle: On Friday, an event will be held to raise money to pay for Michael Keller’s surgery and medication to help keep his new lungs functioning. Keller has cystic fibrosis and I would show the horrible effects of the disease and the benefits of donating to Keller’s cause and others in the same situation. This could be a perfect platform to show the importance of helping others and how much a simple donation can help someone in need.
The Riders: I would talk to Keller and his family who will be at the event. I would also talk to people who attended the event and ask why they showed up. I would then get interviews from people who donated to Keller’s cause and ask why they wanted to donate and why they think others should do the same. Finally, I would talk to a doctor (specifically Keller’s doctor) to have him inform people about the effects of cystic fibrosis.
The Spokes: I would get nat. sound from the event, hopefully when they announced how much money was raised for Keller’s surgery. I would also get nat. sound of Keller interacting with his friends and family at home. I would do a stand-up outside of the event to explain what the money that is being raised is going to and the costs that Keller has to pay off himself.
The Rim:
Beginning: I would start by showing Keller at the event, thanking people for their donations and support. I would have nat. sound of Keller’s interactions with the guests. I would have interviews from the guests in attendance.
Middle: I would show Keller in his home life and show all of the negative effects from his disease. I would show the audience what a person with cystic fibrosis goes through every single day to stay alive. I would have my interviews with Keller and his doctor explaining the symptoms thoroughly. Then, I would show how much better/easier Keller’s life is with his new lungs and how important it is to help others in need.
End: I would finish with a stand-up outside of the event explaining all of the costs and bills that Keller has to pay off. I would then show the event and the total of how much money has been raised for Keller so far. I would have nat. sound of the announcing of the total amount raised.
