Screenplay No. 1 (For Your Consideration)

"Worktape"

Six images-fleuves—five even, non-contiguous square boxes across the bottom of the view with each fingernail of one hand being cleaned by a tool of the actor’s choice (to clarify—one fingertip in each screen, the undernails being scraped out). Majority of screen (exact proportion to be determined by director) devoted to a static shot of youths (preferably found as is—if cast, throw in one girl with the rest boys) BMXing in an empty parking lot. Maybe mountains visible in the distance? Ask youths to stay reasonably close to camera range but don’t have a fit about it. Yellowish tint on finger shots, “Natural” or clear as possible on BMX shot. Only soundtrack is the sound of the BMX scene. Five minutes long.
