The Presentation of the Documentary

We want to open the documentary with a narration of the subject of our interview-‘Mental health effects 1 in
5 young people in the UK, that’s 20% of the population and only 4% of the of the total healthcare is spent ton
our mental health. Today we sat down with a member of the safe guarding team at Henley College to discuss
the world of mental health about mental health awareness and what we can do to fight the illness for
ourselves and others.’ As the narration is happening we will play b roll footage of Jessica Princivalle walking to
her office. The interview will begin with a short introduction from Jessica talking about her profession and a
short introduction from the student.
