Golden hour glow & perfect peach fuzz. Life is good ✨
The Picture: A close-up shot of Leo (male lead) holding a steaming mug of coffee, slightly tilted towards his smiling girlfriend, Clara (female lead), who is nestled up against him on a cozy sofa, both bundled in blankets during a winter storm outside.
Scene: Cozy Living Room - Night
SOUND: Gentle rain lashing against the windowpanes, crackling fire in the fireplace.
VISUALS: Warm light from a table lamp illuminates the scene. A comfy sofa piled with knitted throws, mugs of coffee, half-read book open on the floor.
SCENE START
1. CLOSE UP - LEO'S HAND The hand holds the warm mug perfectly, a tiny bit of coffee splashed at the edge. His thumb rests comfortably on the handle.
2. MEDIUM SHOT - CLARA & LEO Clara is all smiles, eyes closed, completely relaxed. Her hair—a little wild from being tossed about by the breeze that drifts through the slightlyedryed curtains—falls across her cheek. She’s leaning into Leo gently.
3. SOUNDCUE - VOICE OFF” “Ah…the best kind of chaos.”
4. CLOSE UP - LEO’S SMILE A genuine smile spreads across Leo’s face as he watches her. He raises the mug slightly, a hint of warmth radiating outwards.
5. MEDUIM SHOT - ACTION Rain drums harder against the window. It’s been a good long while since they have had such a nice night inside. They haven’t moved much since they got here an hour ago.
6. CLOSEUP - CLARA’S EYES A small, sleepy smile graces her lips as she notices the way his mug is tilted. She doesn’t move, not even to take a sip of coffee.
7. ZOOM IN - LEO’S HAND One of Leo’s fingers brushes lightly against her chin.
8. CLOSE-UP - TOUCH A beautiful, fleeting touch - a fingertip meets a chin. Nothing dramatic, nothing fussy...just perfection.
9. MIDSHOT - WIDE SHOT The camera pulls back ever so slightly, showing more of the room: their favorite worn blanket draped over the armchair, a cat curled up asleep on the rug, a sense of contentment filling the space.
10. VOICE OVER/DIALOGUE (“Remember when you thought this would be toughing it out?")
11. FLASHBACK - QUICK MONTAGE (SHORTED) Quick shots of them navigating life together – struggling to assemble flatpack furniture, laughing at each other during a home cooking disaster, celebrating a small victory.
12. BACK TO PRESENTATION Back to the couple now; they’ve been doing this for years, hasn’t it?
13. CLOSE UP - THEIR FACES Both look happy, comfortable, like they could stay there forever.
14. SOUNDCUE - QUIET LAUGH One of them lets out a quiet laugh, almost without noticing.
15. MEDIUM SHOT - REINEDTION As if on cue, the sound of someone shifting position...Leo adjusts his grip on the mug, bringing it closer to Claras’s nose.
16. CLOSE-UP - THE MUG The steam rising from the coffee rises higher as the heat warms the liquid within.
17. LONG TAKE - EVERYTHING PERFECT Long Take - We see everything, the comforting familiarity between them, the gentle affection, the feeling that this is where they belong.
FINAL FRAME: Close Up - Their faces, one last time, contentedly tired after hours spent together.
FADE OUT.
