The Plan Was Ruined...

It was a beautiful sunny day, and I was excited to finally film the perfect scene for my new short film. I had planned this shoot for weeks, and everything was going according to plan until my car suddenly broke down on the way to the location. I had no idea what had gone wrong with my car, but it wouldn't start, no matter how much I tried. I was stranded on the side of the road, in the middle of nowhere, with no cell service.

  Scene 19   The scene transitions to the protagonist in their bedroom, laying down in the late thinking   Protagonist (voiceover): how long will it be? A month? A week? No, he’s the type of guy to go all out in force the earliest he could.   Scene 20   An overnight transition to the next day   Non diegetic sound: foot steps of the protagonist from his movement   Protagonist: new day huh? I guess I could rub some time off by walking.   Protag’s friend: Hey ‘Andy’! Is that really you?!   Protagonist (voiceover): oh jeez, there’s only 1 person in the world with a voice like that eh..   Scene 21   Diegetic sound: upbeat music plays   Protag’s Friend: it’s been awhile, I haven’t seen you in ages!   Protagonist (voiceover): of course it had to be my old friend to be here right now. Every time I see them, they’re always in a cheerful mood when I see them. It’s kinda creepy   Protag’s friend: well, c’mon already, let’s ...
