Notes and thought for the day of the pitch.
In the end I went for the idea of the "fear of failure". This is loosely based on myself, since I am scared of letting not only myself, but my parents down.
As I said, it's loosely based on myself. My fear however is not as intense as the character in this piece. Their fear is way more exagerated and rather than actually dealing with their fear, it takes them over. Their fear is so bad that they become afraid of those they are trying to please and they alienate themselves away and literally bury themselves in their work.
And somehow, I ended up as a Director for this. I was not expecting that at all.
