For our Drama project for Domestic violence, I worked in a group to create an advertisement about Domestic Violence and the people in my group were Me, Zenia and Amr. For our advertisement we decided the characters would be a wife and a husband and they would be watching and advertisement about domestic violence where Amr and Zenia are the husband and wife. Zenia is a famous actor and acts in advertisements and her husband Mehul is a business man and one day when her ad comes on TV she wants to show it to him and when he see's it he gets really angry and thinks that it is really abusive and something bad. They then go to sleep angry.
Mehul then wakes up in a dream after watching that advertisement and in the dream he comes back home from a stressed day at work. He thinks that to remove the stress he would go and drink alcohol. He then gets really drunk and gets angry at his wife for not restocking the fridge even though he drank all of it and threatens to kill her. He starts holding knives towards her and pushing her down to the full her about to kill her when she screams and Mehul wakes up from his dream.
Once Mehul wakes up he starts panting heavily and then when Zenia is sleeping he say's I would never do that to you in a creepy way and then it ends in a fact about the amount of women that die from domestic violence every year.
The main aim for our video was to show people what domestic violence is about and give them knowledge about what really happens. We were also trying to show them that there are feelings inside you eve when you do get drunk or stressed out and you should always make the right decision because if you want to kill your wife then why did you marry her in the first place? We were also trying to show the audience that domestic violence can happen or start because of many different things and can be something that is so quick and deadly.
The different body language that we used was showing fear with our body by backing away when they are getting threatened and also the body language where the husband is kicking the wife and when the ad is going on in the TV and the husband is kicking the wife there as well.
Our group did many things well which were using different elements of Drama like freeze frames and voices in the persons head. We also had really good editing and a really good idea to show the dream and the advertisement inside an advertisement which were both about domestic violence to involve the characters more.
The negatives in our group was that we were not able to manage our time very well and not meet the deadline because of a group member that left the group which meant we had to record everything all over again. Even though that happened we were able to finish the video with characters played twice and better quality with less time.
I think for this Domestic Violence advertisement we did quite well to show our point and how bad it can be and how it can start with really small things and that people should not support it or do it around the world!

Great effort Mehul, you have thought carefully about what you aimed to do in this task, and then whether or not it was successful. Your ideas are quite complex and thoughtful and you have responded very creatively to this. Your plot was very well described and your answer is carefully structured. To get a higher grade you could develop your answer about how you used your body language to include another example. 7/8 Criteria A
