Research for Thriller: 10,000 hours
Due to the fact that we wanted to make our thriller about a highly qualified gymnast who suffers with psychological problems I decided to look into the 10,000 hours idea. An idea that if an individual does 10,000 of something then they will become an expert in that field.
I then looked into the idea that if an individual does 10,000 hours of something then does that mean that they are obsessed or just extremely dedicated. If an individual does something for too long then they may not know how to do anything else, and they become too focused on one thing.
As is the case in the movie 'Black Swan' the individual becomes so obsessed with her dancing that she struggles to tell fantasy from reality, and doing well is all she cares about and she therefore becomes willing to do anything to achieve her aspirations.
