Initial Idea 2

Artist Name: Paolo Nutini
Song Name: New Shoes
Artist's Image: Traditional songs brought up-to-date by his modern, 'nerdy' look

Rough Draft for Treatment:
Fingers clicking. Hands clapping, fast zoom out to show a bit of wooden floor and some chairs stacks up on a wall. [Bar]
Cut to man lying in bed. Wakes up with last click, sits up in cold messy room, wearing just underwear. Gets up looks for clothes in wardrobe throwing clothes everywhere, spins into some jeans and t-shirt, looks down at old shoes and shakes head.
At chorus camera flicks up to show gleaming new shoes on top of a cupboard, shoes start tap dancing.
Shoes then fly down to mans feet and room transforms. Sun shines and everything looks better.
Jump cut to the bar where staff are dancing while un stacking chairs and wiping tables.
Picture turns upside down then upright and reveals man in bed again.
He wakes up as 2nd verse begins. Room is messy again. He walks into kitchen in the dark and finds himself in the bar where everyone is dancing.
The shoes fly into the room and mans clothes are transformed and he dances too.
When the rhythm changes a girl appears in middle of the room and man dances with her- shown in slow motion- to a tango of sorts.
When beat picks up swing dancing continues in real time and girls are thrown into the air, people are smiling, drinking and having fun.
The shoes are helping the man dance- they look cartoon like.
At last line the picture flips again and man is back in his bedroom, shoes off (they are sleeping) and he places them back on the cupboard then goes to sleep.

The End.
