Shot List

Before the song actually starts, we want to film an intro which will consist of:


Location-Osmans room

  1. High angle directly on top of Osman lying down in his bed
  2. Long shot-he sits up in his bed
  3. Extreme close up of his face
  4. Eyeline match pan of Osmans room-blurred vision done by editing

Track-Calvin Harris begins

  1. Over the shoulder shot of Osmans reflection in the mirror
  2. Medium shot of Osman looking directly into the camera as though it were the mirror
  3. Back to an over the shoulder shot of Osman looking in the mirror, however it is not Osman, it is an older version to show how much he has aged. Also with loneliness and it also matches the lyrics at the beginning of verse 1

Location-Outside of college, Random guy 1 standing by himself

  1. Extreme close up followed by tracking back to show a long shot- this is going to be speed ed up in the editing process to show that he is alone and time is passing by-hence the theme of the song

Location-park-pigeon by itself

  1. Long shot of pigeon by itself

Location- Park sitting alone on bench swinging his legs-Ahmeds little brother-Adam

  1. Long shot of Adam swinging his leg
  2. Close up of the sadness in Adams face showing his venerability because he is alone

Location-My(Kuvals) house-Kuval's little sister Neelam looking out the window with her teddy

  1. Long shot
  2. Close up to show innocence hence the teddy

Blurred vision created during editing process. Neelam is imagining she is in the garden playing on the swings.

Long shot of her playing on the swings being happy and somebody pushing her on the swing to show that she is not alone within her imaginary vision

Location-College steps, students feet walking through the door, fast pace in the editing process

  1. Low angle

Track s beat begins to speed up. Location-Osman in theatre changing seats


  1. Long shots used according to the beat of Osman changing seats which will be speeded up in the editing process-15 seconds

Location-Still in theatre, however blacked out and lights flashing matching the words of the song at that appropriate time.

  1. Various fast paced shots to show the confusion of Osmans state of mind.
  2. High angles to represent Osman as inferior and venerable.

  1. Extreme close up on Osman on the bus by himself-we are going to use the rig to film this
  2. Use various different shots to show Osmans facial expressions

  1. Medium shot and close ups of Osman, reading the menu by himself

Location-Piccadilly Garden in front of waterfall

  1. Long shot and back shot of Osman in front of the waterfall
