The document is a script for a music video for the song "Empire" by Spor featuring James Hadouken. The script outlines 15 scenes totaling just over 7 minutes. It describes shots of several hooded characters finding posters, gathering in an alleyway, hitting cans with bats, and ultimately destroying a faulty television. Throughout, the characters remain unidentified until removing their hoods at the end, leaving a poster with the dealer as they depart. The script provides detailed directions on camera shots, angles, and transitions to visualize the story and lyrics of the song.

1. 0:00 – 0:30 – Start on a black
screen that would fade into the
artists logos/ artists faces cut in
half (One on the left and the other
on the right) and then fade into a
WS of a hallway of two characters
in hoodies facing away from the
camera. Moving on to a zoom to MS
of the two hooded blokes as they
start to walk down the hallway
slowly. As the two walk down the
hallway the video will transition
into a TRS of the two walking
without revealing who they are. The
next shot would be a POV of one of
the characters as he looks at his
friend, it would start as they
stop, he would look down at his
toes and then look at his friend
and then straight forward as they
look towards the end of the tunnel.
Then the next show would be OTS
shot placed in the middle of the
two characters. Then there would be
a MS of the two from the front and
then move into TS on an angle as
they look towards up towards the
wall as they see a small poster
with the spor logo, then a CU as
one of the characters grabs the
poster and as he grabs it the video
shot would change back to a MS shot
as the character looks down and
then cut to a POV to look at the
poster, at this point the camera
shot will change to a TRS as
someone hands the other character
the same poster that the guy is
holding and go into a CU as he is
handed the poster.

would be TRS as the two walk in the
different directions. Then it would
go into a CU as one of the
characters would put in his
earphones then cut to another close
up as one of the characters selects
the song “Spor - Empire” and as it
starts to play it would change to
Over the Shoulder Tracking shot as
he starts to continue walking down
the pathway. It would then shortly
cut to the other character as he
walks down the street in a TRS
style, it would cut to another TRS
but with the other guy walking the
opposite way to the first. Then it
would cut to an OTS as the
character without earphones would
meet up with a friend who also
would be hooded, it would flash to
a TS as the two go to handshake and
then CU on the handshaking. Then to
a cut to a MS of the two walking
down the pathway, Finally the three
characters will meet up another
character in hood on a field
carrying a bag. It’ll show the
character on a WS by cutting from
left to right to middle then
cutting to another WS as the three
walk together towards the
character. After the four meet
it’ll cut to a HAS as the four
greet. The newest member of the
group will drop the bag to reveal
what's inside which will include
alot of posters of spor’s caligo
tour and logo, bats or something
similar and cans and drinks. (Will
be shot as a CU as the bag falls

to a MS as he run towards a can and
then swing to hit it, and just
before he hits it cut to a CU taken
from multiple angles as he hits the
can just as the drop kicks in.
It’ll then cut to a MS as he starts
to run and dance and then cut to
another MS as it pans back to the
other three as they looked shocked
but then get up and do the same,

a CU of of the characters as only

sides and then for a second cut to
a HAS as they look towards the cans
and bottles, and then cut to a OTS
Tracking Shot as he is passed a bat
and then walks towards the cans,
it’ll cut to a MS as he gets close
and then to a CU as he hits the
stack, this will all be taken from
multiple angles so it will have to
be recorded multiple times, and
then a CU of a can/bottle in the

a bottle. There will be MS shots of
the others standing still and
waiting to have a go as they watch.

5. 2:00 – 2:30 - Next shot would be a
of a HAS as they pack their bags
and get ready to leave, then there
would be a CU of the bag on the
floor where the camera would be as
well. Then one of the posters would
fall out with the camera following
it with a PS with a WS of them
walking of away from site and then
a CU of the poster, which would be
of his caligo tour then it would
fade to black. Then we have the
four walking in a line down an
alleyway with their hoods up, then
would go to a MS & TRS as the four
walk down and then cut to the back
of them keeping with shot style and
then edging into a CU. We would
then see one of them split of as
they would walk towards the wall
with a poster (Which they would be
holding when the shot starts) which
would be shot using a MS. We will
see the three of them stop for them

as it pans from the character to
the group and then back to the
character. We will see the poster
being stuck to the wall in a CU but
only focusing on the poster and not
the character.
6. 2:30 – 3:00 - Then the character
will catch up with the group which
at that point will carry on moving
while being filmed in a MS. Then
the same thing will happen again as
another character (Yet again
holding the poster but also the
bag) would split off and stick the
poster on the wall using a CU
though this time they would carry
on walking, it would cut to a MS as
the rest continue to walk towards
their destination and then would
cut back to the single character in
CU as they would take their hood
down to reveal themselves fully and
would then roll up their sleeves at
this point it would Pan to the
poster and then fade to black. It
would fade back as the three left
would walk back to the starting
place in LAS. Then it would cut to
A new character which at this point
would be holding just a small
television who would also be
wearing a hoodie but wouldn’t
matter if it was up or not. It
would show him in a MS as he slowly
walks to meet them holding the Tv
in one hand. The character would
put down the TV and as he does that
it would be a TRS as it tracks him
but then as it gets put down would
turn to a CU on the TV. It would
become a WS of all four of the
characters as they all come in
view, which at this point they
would start conversation which you
won’t be able to hear, The
characters will all look to their
left/right (Depending on the camera
angle) and notice the spor poster.
the final character who go left
behind would come in behind the
single guy in the style of a MS, he
would drop the bag which would like
before reveal the contents of the
bag.

single guy would shake and and to
discuss a deal. Then one of the
guys in the three would look at the
TV which would first do a CU of
their face, and then the TV from
two different angles, first from
the side and then from the back in
a CU shot again as they will notice
it is faulty. This point it’ll cut
to a MS on the group of three as
he’ll notify them about what he
noticed and while not letting the
others know, we’ll know that they
won’t know because it’ll briefly
cut to a TS of the other two as
they have their conversation. Then
one of the three will shout the
other member of the group to notify
which will be shot in a MS which
will instantly cut to his reaction
in another MS which he will turn
his head towards the camera as he
looks shocked and angry, then in a
HAS he will push the single guy
(Dealer) and in a CU you will see
the dealer get pushed up against
the wall by one of the group, Then
it would cut to a HAS as two of the
group will go into the bag to grab
the two bats, as their hands get
into the bag it will cut to a CU
from above as they take the bat out
and look at the one of the members
from a MS at this point it’ll Pan
towards the dealer being held up
and then back to the character it
was looking at as he points the bat
at him angrily. Then it would
fastly zoom in on the bat and
follow it down to the hand then
moves up to the hood. It will then
focus back to the dealer as he is
being held up against the wall as
he gets dropped to the floor in the
shot MS.

8. 3:30 – 4:00 - As he drops to the
floor it’ll cut to the TV in a CU
and then quickly cut to a WS as the
two characters with bats prepare to
hit the TV. It’ll then cut to a LAS
as one hits the TV and then the
other but just before it hits, a CU
shot would happen so we can see the
effect of the bat on the TV zoomed
in, then from a HAS we will see the

9. 4:00 – 4:30 - Continuing with the
batsman would a LAS (Possible MS)
aiming at both the bag, the TV
being hit and the dealer on the
floor at an angle where you could
see them all. Next would be a MS of
