NEW SCREENPLAY

Once we had begun editing our short film we realised that the voice over didn't quite match what was on the film and so we decided that we needed to change it. We had to move around a few scenes in the filming and then add a few lines too the script. 

INT. Characters house- morning

Blank screen

Underwater noise can be heard, characters eyes open

Fade in:


Gets out of bed and walks to the window and looks out

HARVEY (V.O):

Another day

Walks downstairs

HARVEY (V.O):

I guess I’m used to being alone now

Looks into cupboard for food

HARVEY (V.O):

It has been a while after all

Sits down and eats his ‘breakfast’

HARVEY (V.O):

Where is everyone? Why am I here?

EXT. Walks out the house and closes the door to go to the park

HARVEY (V.O):

Obviously I miss my family

Waves at his next door neighbour and she walks straight passed him as if he wasn’t there

HARVEY (V.O):

I feel like I’m the only one here

Walks along the road towards the park

HARVEY (V.O):

You get bored being alone

Gets to the park

HARVEY (V.O):

I’m trying to find things to do to occupy myself

Walking in the park

HARVEY (V.O):

Sometimes I walk for days

Walks over to the swings

HARVEY (V.O):

Or try out new things to pass the time

INT. Wakes up in his room looks over to his bed side table and finds some flowers.

HARVEY (V.O):

Weird stuff keeps happening

Throws the flowers on the floor

HARVEY (V.O):

Flowers by my bed, I don’t know how that happened.

Walks over to his laptop and looks at Facebook

HARVEY (V.O):

All my friends writing on my Facebook that they miss me, where are they?

Walks downstairs and picks up his wet shoes

HARVEY (V.O):

My shoes are always wet

EXT. Walks out of the house and to his car

HARVEY (V.O):

And my car is always filled with water, I don’t understand why

INT. Walks back into the house

Starts playing with a pack of cards plays with a pack of cards

HARVEY (V.O):

How did I get here?

Gets frustrated at the card game and spills his water over toy cars

HARVEY (V.O):

How did it happen?

Wakes up, puts his glasses on and checks his phone

HARVEY (V.O):

This is the 56th day I’ve been alone now

Newspaper article flashes up.

Fades to black
