This document outlines the sections, timing, shots, locations, costumes, and props needed to film a music video. It follows the main character Johnathan through their morning routine of getting dressed for school, walking to school, gym class where they win a race, getting bullied in their next class, walking home changing clothes, and exploring gender fluid outfits in their bedroom. The document provides detailed instructions for filming each section, including suggested shot types, where to film, and what costumes and props are required. It estimates the run time to be around 3:30 minutes with some sections shortened or cut.
