Brittany Misitano Weekly Story Idea 2

The Axle:

National Suicide Prevention Week; spread awareness about prevention of suicide from the perspective of the Central PA chapter of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention

The Riders:

Members of the Centre County chapter of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention

Someone who the organization has helped in the past

Someone who attended the Suicide Prevention & Awareness Day Event on Wednesday

The Spokes:

-Footage of people attending the Suicide Prevention & Awareness Day Event

-Footage of people giving speeches and the audience’s reactions/applause

-Footage of the Central PA chapter workers interacting with attendees

-VO explaining that it’s National Suicide Prevention Week and a little description of the event that’s going on

-Interviews with people who work at the Centre County American Foundation for Suicide Prevention about the event, and why this week is important to the community/ what can we do to spread awareness about suicide prevention/what does their foundation do?

-Interview with someone whom the Foundation’s chapter has helped and their advice to anyone struggling

-Interview someone who attended the event, what were his or her thoughts on it?

The Rim:

Beginning: I would start the package by showing the speakers giving their speeches and then panning to an audience with the VO explaining the week and the event

Middle: I would show the interviews with the people who work for the Foundation along with someone who attended the event. The camera could cut back between the interview and the shots of the workers interacting with the attendees.

End: I would end the package with the interview of the person who the Foundation helped in the past
