Treatment Sheet Concept- young man saw walking confidently among the suburbs living his everyday life. He’s comfortable and happy in his living environment with it being small and close. First half of the video shows him living his young life all happy and nothing to worry about. Second half we see this man slightly older starting off with a clean cut living in the city a much larger and crazier place than were he grew up. As the video progresses he starts to lose his clean cut and gets scruffier and weaker, the city is taking a toll on his life and it’s a huge struggle, making him upset and ill with him being pushed around at work and by others walking among him. End of the video we seem him walking up to the bridge ready to take his life, as he stands on the bridge he begins to reminisce of his past life in the suburbs bringing him to happier feeling as he takes his life. Suburbs camera shots have brighter lighting and are seen to be a happier place, while the city shots are darker mostly set at night. Narrative The story in our video is about a young man moving from the suburbs to the big city. Thinking his life is going to go to better places. However the city takes a large toll on him, ruining him gradually mentally and physically. As the video progress’ his body starts to show weakness making him look ill. His clean cut eventually fades making him look like he’s in an unkempt state. His suburban life is far better than what he expected the city to be, which is shown earlier in the video. However all of this is gone and he feels like he has to move on as everyone else has. He feels like he has to move on even if he doesn’t. He decides to take his life as he can’t take it anymore and the only way back is through the memories he has. Reminiscent shots flash bringing him back to a happier place just before he takes his life, ending him on a high. Performance The actor at the beginning we want to be acting confident and happy with where he’s at, a sign of not worrying with what’s going to happen. Later on in the video when the urban environment is in place the actor will be acting frail and nervous among the crowds of people as if he’s reverted back to being a child in this completely different area. Towards the very end he is shown acting miserable and dull. Lighting Suburban light tone, colours brought out more Urban/city darker tone set at night, street lights setting most of the light. Giving it a dull and dark tone.
