Preliminary Filming Project Script

Setting the scene: We will start the opening by using an ECU of the door handle as the first man turns it. Then we will focus on the Robert (man1) as he sits down opposite to other man (Steve(man 2)) in the opening. They will talk to each other using MSN Messenger. We will use a voice over which will speak the words on the computer monitor. While communicating, one of men’s computers abruptly shuts down and the monitor presents a screen saying ‘Will restart in 5, 4, 3……’
Then the man whose computer fails says ‘Why does it always shut down’. Then he leaves the room.
