This storyboard outlines 32 shots for a music video by Justin Bieber called "Cold Water". It begins with establishing shots of the area where the main character lives. Subsequent shots show him waking up to a text message, getting ready, and walking to the skate park. Shots at the skate park depict him skating and having flashbacks as the song plays. The storyboard ends by rewinding time to an alternate beginning where he sees the upsetting message and goes back to sleep.
