Overview: In order to understand the struggle behind being a special needs child, Teddy Pelic, 21, will expand on his experiences being a child who was under those troubling circumstances, in addition to commentary from his family/friends and how Teddy's condition affected theirs'.
Goal: I want the audience to understand that not only is the child affected by his/her condition, but those around him will be affected as well. I want viewers to not only realize the extent of being special needs when young, but also how it develops/gets better or worse as one ages.
Film Outline: Will Pelic sits in a chair, discussing his brother's troubles as a special needs child. Shots of his room and personal belongings bring out some of his aesthetics and portray him as just another human being. He talks over these short shots, while shots change from the hands, eyes, and lips of his. I will ask questions about Will's experience having a special needs brother. He will talk about the moving from school to school, losing friends and gaining friends, going to the hospital so much, having to work for college now because his family's expenses are high (due to hospital bills). The film will then focus on Annie Pelic, Teddy's sister, for a bit for her to have her input on how she feels about her brother, and the stress it has put on her and her family. After her commentary, Teddy's parents will talk about their struggles as parents. Seeing as it is hard for parents to see their child go through such hard situations, I want to know their thoughts and emotions on whats happening to their son.
