Credits; there will be an extreme
wide shot of Manchester at night
and also during the day , there
will be variations of this shot,
including different locations but
the same style of shot these will
fade into each other. In after
effects I will add a slight wiggle
/ camera shake (this will be subtle
to give a more liquid motion to the
video.) Overlaid on top of this
video will be the credits of all
people who helped create the vision
and there role. (in post-production
I will reduce the speed of the
video form 24 fps to 17 fps this
will make it look very smooth and
like she knows that is coming)
During the first 10 seconds of
the video there will be ambient
sound playing of cars in light
traffic.

I wanna be drunk when I wake up
On the right side of the wrong
bed
And every excuse I made up
Tell you the truth I hate
What didn't kill me
It never made me stronger at
all.
Love will scar your make-up lip
sticks to me
So now I'll maybe leave back
there

Ed Sheeran - Drunk
Walking through the kitchen,
goes into living room and gets
into the duvet watching tv
eating left over pizza.
I'm sat here wishing I was
sober
I know I'll never hold you like
I used to.
But a house gets cold when you
cut the heating
Without you to hold I'll be
freezing
Can't rely on my heart to beat
it
'Cause you take part of it every
evening
Take words out of my mouth just
from breathing
Replace with phrases like when
you're leaving me.
Should I, should I?
Him drunk in the bathroom
staring at his reflection, as
flashbacks play through quickly,
punches the mirror and it
shatters, and falls to the
floor.
The flash backs black and white.
Maybe I'll get drunk again
I'll be drunk again
I'll be drunk again
To feel a little love
I wanna hold your heart in both
hands
Not watch it fizzle at the
bottom of a Coke can
And I've got no plans for the
weekend
So shall we speak then

laughing whilst skateboarding.
Talking all together.
Keep it between friends
Though I know you'll never love

Ed Sheeran – Drunk

beer, starting crying. Flashback

falls asleep on him.
On cold days Coldplay's out like
the band's the name
I know I can't heal things with
a hand shake
You know I can't change as I
began saying
You cut me wide open like
landscape
Open bottles of beer but never
champagne
To applaud you with the sound
that my hands make.
Should I, should I?
Maybe I'll get drunk again
I'll be drunk again
I'll be drunk...
