Target audience
B
10. A man is running late for work. He checks his phone as
hes running into the station and sees that he has a bunch
of missed calls.
He then bumps into someone as hes running into the
station and drops his briefcase which then scatters his
work everywhere.
He is then seen running inside the station and quickly
getting on his train. He then takes out his Sony
Headphones and slowly becomes entranced by the music.
We then transition to him in a very quiet park, almost as if
the music has put him at peace (even with all the
problems going on around him).
