Logline: Sometimes a look says nothing. Other times, it says everything.
I wrote this extremely short script a couple of days ago and I would greatly appreciate any feedback. It's a very, VERY simple idea with a typical cliche concept and ending. I was going to shoot it this summer on 16mm as an excercise. Let me know what you think, thanks.
The Look
FADE IN:
EXT. HIGHWAY - DAY
CAMERA booms down to reveal an ominous looking yellow dead end sign. A car drives in front of it and ROARS down an empty road.
EXT. GATE
A gate comes down blocking off the entrance to the road beyond. There is a keypad next to it where one is to enter a code.
The car drives up to the lowered gate and stops, shifting to neutral gear.
INT. CAR
Two clean-cut, normal looking guys, GUY 1, and GUY 2 give each other a
look.
Guy 1 leans over to the gate keypad and types in a code.
The gate opens. Guy 1 shifts to first gear, and drives through.
The guys give each other another
look.
Guy 1 looks back at the road. Before he realizes it, he SMACKS into a PERSON walking in the middle of the road.
EXT. HIGHWAY
CAMERA booms up from the yellow dead end sign. An ambulance drives up the road ahead.
EXT. GATE
The ambulance - with an AMBULANCE DRIVER and an AMBULANCE ASSISTANT in the passenger seat - stops at the gate.
The Ambulance Driver gives the Ambulance Passenger a
look.
The end.
