Story Summary

Hey guys! Reporting for duty and so on.
Just a bit of a summary for Qamar's sake of everything that went on today! Had a really good meeting, and got looooads done, so this is basically what's going to happen in the film.

• The story starts with a split screen of the 3 characters, like we discussed. Their alarms go off, and this triggers the music (yet to be established) to begin.
  
• They each go about their morning routine, still in split screen
• As they leave their houses to begin their day, the split screen freezes each of their images. The camera then zooms into the character on the far left - the character searching for success. (For now, let's call him Scott, as this guy may be playing him!)
• This is the character Charlotte is working on. He works on the street, playing his guitar, trying to get noticed. The camera follows him as he begins to play.
• The camera then picks up on a girl as she puts some money into his hat - they exchange glances and smiles. As she leaves, the camera begins to follow her, all of this still with the music in the background.
• The camera follows the girl (character name....Chloe?) as she goes to the library. She walks past the character searching for knowledge on the way (character name....Ben? Just suggestions, haha!) Ben is getting some food, and the camera moves away from concentrating on the girl's journey to concentrating on Ben's. He goes into the library, not far behind Chloe, through the doors. As the door shuts behind him, the music cuts out.
• Cut to inside the library. Ben is walking towards the books, searching through them and gathering. He walks past the girl, establishing for the audience that she is there too, though the camera does not stop on her. He sits down to begin to read.
• Cut back to Scott with his guitar. He is at home now (perhaps use the link of sitting down - as Ben sits down it could cut to Scott sitting down in his home? Also, this could be an opportunity to use some of the instrumental links that Qamar wanted to use.) Scott is looking through his hat of earnings, and he comes across a business card. On it is written the name of the company (something pirate related :P), the adress, a number and a date and time to meet.
• It cuts to Scott getting prepared to go to the meeting on the card. He is excited, as is he is finally getting his big break.
• He leaves the house, looking confident. However, as time goes on, he passes through streets not knowing where he is. He looks from the card to the street names, getting more and more confused, constantly checking his watch. Finally, he comes across the library, and rushes inside. (We also discussed having him trying to get out of the rain on this part - which obviously we will have to decide on the day depending on the weather :).)
• Cut to Ben, still with his books. He is getting more tired and bored looking. The camera follows him as he continues to exchange books and so on. Suddenly, Scott rushes up to him - they do not know each other. Scott asks Ben if he knows the directions to the place he is trying to find for his interview with the music company.
• After Scott gets the directions, he starts to walk out of the library, though something stops him. He spots Chloe, looking through the books. He stands on the opposite side of the shelf to her - she is completely unaware of him.
• The camera begins to focus on Chloe. She stands at the bookshelf, her hand scanning the books. As she comes across the one she is looking for, she takes it out - and a pair of eyes stare at her through the gap. At first she does not notice this, and turns to walk away, but she sees him out of the corner of her eye...however, when she turns back to the gap, he is gone.
• Intrigued, Chloe edges her way around the shelf to the side on which Scott was standing. She peers around the edge, only to see several guys, all around the same age - it could have been any one of them. (Scott is not there). Suddenly, as if sensing they were being spied on, they all look up at her. Startled, she jumps, and scrambles around the corner.
• As she half-runs, not looking where she is going, she bumps into someone. Books go flying, and she falls flat backwards.
• Here, there is a POV shot, from Chloe, looking up at the ceiling. There is the sound of Chloe groaning in pain. Scott slowly comes into shot, over her, novel in hand. He asks, "Is this yours?"
• Embarassed, Chloe jumps up, snatching the novel. She shuffles away quickly, towards the exit. Scott laughs, then after a second, realises where he still is, and looks at his watch - he has missed his interview.

From here, the story begins to resolve itself. Ben's character recieves an email which gives him a new outlook on life, and the other 2 characters are happy that they have met each other. In the end, the film returns to split screen and each of the characters go to sleep. We just need to decide the order in which that bit happens! :)

I hope that was okay guys, and easy to understand! If anyone thinks anything needs to be added or changed then just shove a comment on here, or if you think I've missed anything out, or if you have any questions.

Cheers!
