A man is walking along what seems to the sidewalk of a main


road the camera is still panning as he walks past it. Music
can be heard through his head phones. The camera then
switches to
the other side of the road in order to show him turn the
corner into what seems to be an alleyway As he turns the
corner the camera is following him from behind for a little
while he taps his earphones until he stops and pulls out his
phone. The camera is now over his shoulder capturing the
phone as he is skipping through songs.

MINGO
I really gotta make a new playlist

He says as he is putting his phone back in his pocket and


keeps on walking. The camera is still
Over his shoulder capturing him as he walks away. The camera
then switches back to following
him from behind for a while before getting a low angle shot.
MINGO seems to notice something
on the ground where the camera is located and approaches it.
As he does this the camera
retracts in order to show what seems to be a blue button
with a star on it, and MINGO picking it up.
As he picks up the button he inspects for a few seconds
before calmly pressing it.

MINGO is somehow teleported to where he was standing about


a minute ago. Still skipping
through the songs. As soon as he realizes what he is doing
he turns around in shock .
He can’t believe what just happens.
MINGO
WHAT THE…?

He looks around for another few seconds still in shock and


pumped full of adrenaline from the event that just
happened.
He puts his phone back in his pocket and starts running
back to where he found the button.
The camera is switching positions in order to capture him
running. As he runs he is clearly worried and anxious about
the situation. MINGO is looking around on the floor in
hopes to find the button.
He finally arrives at the location and slides for a few
Feet before bending down and reaching for the button once
more. The camera is focusing on the button, as MINGO
arrives the camera retracts in order to show him pressing
the button.
