Taylor Elliott-Treatment and Thumbnails

Media: Music Video
Song: Undecided

The goal of this film is to cause the audience to realize that we often become so caught up in technology and how we want to perceive things that we become naïve when it comes to the truth of how situations really are. 

The opening scene will consist of clips of different people with different environments projected around them.  Within these clips will be a boy and girl who are projecting the same scene of a sunset.  There will be a sudden glitch in the system and it will suddenly shut down. 

Scene two will be shown through a split screen view, showing a guy opening up his front door and looking over a desert landscape on one side, and a girl peeking out her window to see a blanket of light snow on the opposite side.

Going back into normal view, scene three will show the two running to find maps in different parts of their homes.  They will each slam them on the counter or desk and search for where it is they plan to run away. 

Next, will be a series of shots of the two traveling by different methods of transportation (bus, train, walking, etc.)

Traveling on separate paths the boy and girl clear the woods at the same time.  They stop and acknowledge one another with a smirk. 

Looking in disbelief, the two sit and stare over the destroyed landscape and terror that sits below, glancing at a postcard of the picture that had been projected around the two for as long as they could both remember.

Visual Treatment:
The beginning and ending scenes will be made up of dark colors, while the journey portion of the will be brighter, containing more neutral colors.  Filters will be applied.
