Always Gold - Radical Face Music Video By Dan, Aaron, Ben

INTRO 0:00 - 0:23 Shot of Aaron sitting on bench or dock and the camera slowly tracks in behind him. Leaves are falling. 0:23 - 0:40 Shot switches to front of Aaron and tracks in closer (mirrors the first shot, just from front side). He sits there solemn. 0:40 - 0:55 Shots of the trees blowing in the wind and the leaves falling. Basically any pretty scenery that sets up that this is fall and BEAUTIFUL at the cottage! BEGINNING OF VERSE 0:55 - 1:01 Jake walks out of cottage or gets out of chair and looks out over deck. At 0:57 there is a sound that sounds kind of like a door opening or chair moving. 1:01 - 1:37 This can be setting up a little. Shots of Aaron walking around in the woods, mixed in with shots of Jake playing in the woods or building something. Maybe swimming. Anything that shows hes being young and innocent. 1:37 - 2:06 (SINGING STARTS) This whole time should be sequences of Aaron "observing" Jake in the sense that he is looking at his past self. So I can do stuff in post production to make Jake look like he is kind of a ghost, or moving in slow motion, etc. Something to make him seem not actually there. Well have shots or Aarons face showing that he is reminiscent.

2. FIRST CHORUS 2:06 - 2:29 (slow motion?) Aaron walking around in woods. All camera movements are "swingy". Like the camera comes in and flies/spins around Aaron, then spins around trees, then spins around Jake in the same kind of way. Aaron looks sad/confused like hes looking for Jake. I think there should be shots of Jake running carefree through the woods too. SECOND VERSE 2:29 - 2:47 This will be a shot of Aaron sitting at the round table on the deck looking over the lake. The camera will spin around the table, and as the camera comes back to Aaron, Jake is sitting there instead. It will then cut to a profile shot of Aaron looking straight ahead. This will cut with the exact same shot, but instead Jake is there. 2:47 - 3:00 This will be the same shot as the beginning of Aaron on the bench or dock. this time Jake is sitting next to him. As the shot goes, Jake fades away, until its just aaron sitting there. SLOW BRIDGE 3:00 (black and white) This part will be shots of each of us (maybe including Joel, Mr. and Mr.s Tyner?) sitting at different places on the deck. Each shot will be of one of us, sitting solumnly looking directly at the camera. It will cut to a different person according to the music (at each "beat").

3:22 (SINGING STARTS) (black and white) This will be a continuation of the last sequence (i.e. everyone will still be sitting inn their seat and looking into camera). But this time each of us will be saying the lyrics that go to this part. Again, itll cut back and forth between the people. SPACEY BRIDGE 4:10 - 4:33 (slow motion?) Again the "swingy" shots like the first chorus. I think itll just be a few of Aaron and Jake again. Maybe they are standing like 15 ft apart looking at eachother, and the camera spins around. SECOND CHORUS? (FASTER PART) 4:33 - 5:20 (slow motion) Jake starts running. Aaron starts chasing him. I think shots of the cottage, lake, and scenery should be mixed in. 5:10 - 5:16 (slow motion) Jake runs out onto dock and sprints toward end. Aaron runs after him. 5:16 - 5:20 (slow motion) At the last few seconds of this sequence (i.e. the build up), Jake jumps off the end of the dock and hits the water. END 5:20 Aaron drops to knees (dramatically), just after Jake jumped in. Theres a shot of the water with bubbles coming up, but (MORE) (CONTINUED)

5:20 (contd) Jake doesnt reapear. The final shot is the same as the first one (Aaron on bench or dock)--camera tracking out, mimicking the beginning, but in reverse. I think it fits well with the line "Im gonna be here till forever, so just call when youre around".
