This is the first scene draft for 'One Night Only':
After getting feedback I was pleased with the desired effects: Using minimal dialogue, I had portrayed the fact that the Character of Sean is not living well: he is in a rut and something (related to sleeping with and/or relationships with other men,) is causing his almost-depression.
I used repetitiveness in the characters apathy to portray the rut, and the imagined quick cuts to portray how he seems to be doing the same thing every day.
As shown by his actions with the phone, the story starts 'in the thick of it' meaning that the exposition is implied by the onscreen visuals and not explicitly stated.
I feel happy with the results and hopefully the rest of the story will be as strong as I feel the opening is.
