Balloon Treatment


Balloon
-Treatment

(Black and White)
We open on a girl sitting on a park bench looking sad. We pan over to see a playground with children playing. We then see a close up of the girls face.

We see a balloon floating near the ground coming towards the girl. It stops in front of her and she gets up with excitement in her eyes and grabs it.

(Color)
The girl runs to the playground with the balloon in hand. They slide, swing, and run around together.  Cut to different shots of the girl and the balloon doing these activities.

The viewer gets a sense that these two (girl and balloon) are best friends and are inseparable. We then understand that she was sad because she didn’t have anyone to play with and was feeling left out.

It starts to get dark out and we see the girl and the balloon sitting on the ground together. The girl gives the balloon a hug, squeezing just a little too tight, and the balloon pops.

(Black and White)
The girl is heartbroken and starts to cry.  We see a wide shot of her sitting on the ground crying and it fades to black.
