Screenplay

SLOW FADE IN:

EXT. TRAIN STATION - DAY
It is early Morning, the sun is rising and early birds are
beginning to sing.
On the horizon you see the lights of a distant train cutting
through the sky. Suddenly a train form the other side shoots
past and into the shot. As this happens the music joins the
sequence. People are preparing to board the train as it is
pulling into the platform. Hands are shivering whilst
pressing the button to open the train doors. As the people
get on the train, so does the cameraman in a POV shot.
INT. TRAIN - DAY
People are talking on the train and reading the daily news
paper. The camera is filming outside of the train, showing
off all of the new developments just outside the city. The
music is starting to build up into the chorus.
EXT. CAMBRIDGE TRAIN STATION - DAY
Slow motion montage of people and trains arriving at the
station. Then a timelapse of the trains. Then a transition
to the new complex just outside the train station. Music is
now pulsing and upbeat. There are sound effects of transport
vehicles and people talking.
EXT. CAMBRIDGE MONATAGE - DAY
A cut fade into a 60 second long montage of Cambridge. The
shot list:
1) People are on a punting boat enjoying the views and
talking.

talking.

listening.

EXT. INTERVIEW OUTSIDE KINGS COLLEGE

Music gets quieter and the video fades (5 seconds) into the
interview. We see a woman standing opposite Kings College in
a medium close up.
INTERVIEWER: In your opinion, what do you feel the key
elements of The Culture of Cambridge are?
Woman: "Answer....."
Mid answer a montage brakes out sampling topics she is
covering in her answer (e.g.- busking or street art).
The shot then cuts to a man in a different position standing
outside Kings College.
Interviewer: What do you feel are the best aspects of the
City?
Man: "Answer...."
Montage of showing of the city.
EXT. END OF SEQUENCE
Shots of people leaving Cambridge to go home. Music is
dieing down and the overall audio is getting quieter.
