Storyboard #2

Both storyboards are pretty similar, but this one delves more into the specifics and has a different ending than the first one.

The film would begin with a close-up of the phone on a dresser and the alarm clock would go off. On the screen we will see the first opening credit and after a few seconds the character's hand will reach over and grab the phone. The video will cut to a point of view shot (from the phone's perspective), then to an over-the-shoulder shot of the character scrolling through their phone in bed. The video will continue with a wide shot and a pan as the character is getting out of bed and walking to the bathroom. The video will then cut to a close-up of the phone on the back of the toilet and, as I wrote previously, we will hear the sound of the character using the bathroom. Then we will see a close-up of the phone by the sink, where the phone will get a tad wet. We will hear the character pumping soap and turning the water on and off. The video will then cut to an over-the-shoulder shot and the character will be brushing her teeth while simultaneously scrolling through her phone. The video will continue with a close-up of the phone on her dresser and I will use foley sound to emphasize the sound of the character getting dressed and the sound of drawers opening/closing. I'm thinking that as the character is getting dressed she can receive a few text messages to emphasize how she is always on her phone. The video will then cut to a wide shot and a pan of the character leaving her house, once again, I'd focus on the sound of the door closing and locking. The video will continue with a mid-shot of the character getting in her car. I'd focus on the sound of the door closing, the engine starting, and the air conditioner. As the character starts to drive, she will be texting and the camera will zoom-in on the phone (sound of typing will be emphasized). The character will then get into a car accident and to illustrate this, I will use the sounds of cars honking, heavy breathing, screaming, and an animated sound of a car crash. At the same time, the screen will go black (or possibly just cut) and then fade into a close-up of the phone cracked on the street. The camera will then zoom-in on the phone and a text message will come through saying "you there?"
