Screenplay.

Throughout the video the song is the audio. The video keeps cutting back to the GIRL in the throne room on her own as she sings some of the lyrics.

INT. LIVING ROOM. DAY.

The scene opens with the GIRL sitting in a living room (with neutral colouring if possible) on her own. She is drawing black and white pictures of scenes that will happen later in the video. Many of the pictures are of her. One of the shots should be from a high angle and scan over the pictures as she’s drawing them.

She looks frustrated and drops the pencil before pushing the table away and leaning back. She shows that she’s deep in thought.

The BOY walks into the living room. The GIRL watches him intently; she tenses as he comes to sit next to her on the sofa. He tries to put his arm around her and kiss her on the cheek but she moves away both times before getting up and storming off.

He watches her go but doesn’t follow.

The camera scans back over the pictures and zooms into one of the girl sitting in a throne. It zooms until the screen is filled and the animation begins.

INT. THRONE ROOM. NIGHT.

Animation.

The GIRL is sat on the throne looking sad, barely moving. This scene happens very fast. The room and the GIRL are show before it cuts back to the table with the drawings.

The photos are scanned again before zooming in on one showing a hand holding a flower.

EXT. GARDEN. DAY.

Animation.

The hand holding the flower is revealed to be the GIRL’s. The BOY is shown with her and they both look happy and committed to each other.

The camera zooms out to the table again.

INT. BEDROOM. DAY.

The GIRL runs into the bedroom after leaving the living room. She collapses on the bed and begins crying.

The room should look like it belongs in a fairy tale, extravagant with a four poster bed if there’s a room like this available.

EXT. GARDEN. DAY.

Animation.

The BOY is back in the garden only this time he’s not with the GIRL he’s with the WITCH. She should be dressed in dark clothing and be looking at him more possessively than the girl did. The BOY looks nervous and tries to repeat some of the actions/behaviours he had with the girl but the WITCH react badly and looks annoyed. She pulls him in to kiss her.

INT. BEDROOM. DAY.

The BOY has eventually followed the girl and is knocking on the door of the room. Asking her to come out. The GIRL lies on the bed and pretends she can’t hear him. The Boy looks frustrated and disappointed.

The GIRL continues to cry when the BOY’s phone goes off at the other side of the room. She gets up and goes to look at it.

The screen reads “CALLING: LINDA.” She looks furious and obviously recognises the name. She looks at the door where the boy is still stood unbeknown.

EXT. GARDEN. DAY.

The GIRL is revealed to be watching the BOY and the WITCH together. She walks up to them and slaps him in the face before saying something to the WITCH that offends her. She walks away while the BOY watches her sadly and the WITCH glares at the both of them.

The camera pans down the girl to show her getting the flower out of her pocket. It cuts to a similar shot showing the girl with the phone in her hand instead.

INT. BEDROOM & LIVING ROOM. DAY.

The girl storms out the door and confronts the boy. He steps back out of shock and she marches past him into the living room. He follows her and they begin arguing.

She shows him the phone, telling him what she saw and he reacts defensively. She moves around the table and the pictures are blown onto the floor.

The camera zooms onto the pictures and shows the couple fighting in the throne room like they are in real life.

INT. THRONE ROOM. DAY.

Animation.

The couple are stood in front of the throne fighting when the WITCH storms in. She reaches her hand out and walks towards the GIRL looking threatening. The GIRL backs away from her and ends up falling into the throne at an odd angle. She adjusts herself and sinks back into it. The BOY tries to stop the WITCH getting to her but she simply pushes him out the way.

INT. LIVING ROOM. DAY.

The couple continue to fight. The GIRL says something that seems to hit home with the boy and he pushes past her and leaves. She watches him for a second.

INT. THRONE ROOM. DAY.

Animation.

The GIRL starts to freeze; some effect with the colouring will represent this. The BOY watches horrified but doesn’t move to help her out of fear. The WITCH looks smug and walks out, pushing past the boy while doing so. He immediately runs up to the GIRL and tries to get her to react to him but she doesn’t. He backs away looking distraught.

INT. LIVING ROOM. DAY.

The GIRL looks around the living room before walking up to the table and throwing the rest of the pictures off.

INT. THRONE ROOM. DAY.

Animation.

The BOY watches the GIRL as she slowly looks at him, blaming him. He takes some steps back before walking out of the room leaving her on her own as in the first animation scene. The camera zooms out of the picture from the beginning and back into the living room.

INT. LIVING ROOM. DAY.

She sits down on the sofa, as in the beginning and puts her head in her hands. The scene fades to black.
