Monologue

Our protagonist's monologue throughout the film will be one of the ways we portray the story to the audience. At this moment, there is no dialogue in the film - if there will be, the only dialogue might be between the protagonist and his boss at work. Because there will be little to no dialogue, the monologue will be crucial to our short film's success. For the time being, this is just a template with ideas for lines we could say. This is not final

For now, we have the outline for what we want to say and when, we just need the actual time restrictions on the footage we will be voicing over. 
 
The following are some lines we plan to start the film off with (subject to change):

Monday. What a lovely day… well, not really. Mondays never seem to be “lovely” for me.
 
It’s the start of the week in the nine-to-five job I loathe.
 
And here I am, trying to make the most of the start of the week. Start strong, stay strong.
 
I decided about two weeks back to try and iron out the negativity and replace it with a positive outlook.
 
Two weeks ago, there was something missing… two weeks ago, I was close to quitting my job… two weeks ago… (Purposefully trail off)
 
In short, I decided to start taking any opportunities I had rather than ignoring them. In truth, everyone has an incredible amount of opportunities. We just lazily ignore them.

I saw a paradise that nobody else saw.

Hands acting like a portal.


A full list of lines will be published after we have everything finalised.
