ADIDAS spec

A group of athletic guys in Adidas gear are sitting around eating french fries or something like that. Its food that is messy and always falls.
Wide and arial shots
They are all doing little quick jumpy movements but its hard to understand what they are doing.
Getting closer it seems like they are dancing in their seats almost. Still not quite sure what is going on.
Medium shot
A guy takes a bite and sees the fry dropping almost on his lap. He kicks it with his shoe as if its a hackey sack or mini soccerball.
It bounces and goes behind him. He does a backwards tap with his other foot and the fry flies in the air and lands in his open mouth.
He looks at the others and shakes his head with a little head bob signifying he is the winner.
The other guys head bob acknowlegement too.

Superimpose: ADIDAS - Sports all the time, competitive for life.
You get the idea?

10 Days in Hell

First 10 days = Free VOD
After 10 days = 99cents + Netflix + Amazon + whatever (recouped with Netflix)

Each day is a 5-6 minute bit.Maybe more.
Filmed all outdoors besides the cabin interiors.

3 friends go to a cabin in their car. 2 boys, 1 girl.
1 girl dies immediately in a fire/explosion in the cabin.
The cabin is gone, it takes the car out with it.
2 friends have to fend for themselves in the woods.
Where some sort of monster/evil spirit attacks them.
Slowly killing Friend #2.
Friend #1 must stay alive while trying to get out of the woodlands.
Eventually gets out to find out he's on a different planet. FLASH

Almost all night time in the home. Watching TV, reading, internet, working out, painting.
Works at a lonely place.
A lot of Voice Over.

Day 1:
Really weird. I can't go to sleep. It's 3 A.M and I can't go to sleep tonight. I wonder if it was that 20 oz soda I had with dinner. But usually soda doesn't do anything to me. I can't put myself in bed.. laid in there for a good hour and couldn't fall asleep. Here I am, hours later, almost I have no choice but to stay up and go to work at 8 in the morning. I'll sure be tired by lunchtime. I'll have to get to bed a few hours earlier when I get home to fix my schedule back.

Starts with him getting ready for bed. Strips shirt off. Good build actor. Tosses and turns. Throws off the sheet and gets up. Goes to the bathroom. Looks in the mirror. Takes a piss. Looks at the clock 3AM. Looks at the clock 4:30AM. Looks at the clock 6AM. Sunrise. Puts on clothes and heads out the door to work.




Day 2:
I can't go to sleep. I try but I can't. I'm going to run 8 miles today after work, maybe that will tire me enough. I don't get it, I'm still up, maybe I need to take a few sleep pills. Now I'm just drowsy, but I can't sleep.
It's already midnite. I tried to go to sleep but I couldn't. Maybe if I can turn on some classical music. Eyes wide open. Goes to the medicine cabinet. Sleep pills. Drowsy. Tries reading a large book. Can't do it. Sees his painting. Puts it on the floor and paints. Dissolve to multiple paintings.


Day 3:
I can't go to sleep. I want to go to sleep but I can't. I don't know whats wrong. I'm tossing and turning, but nothing, I talked to my friend Kat, she says that if you don't sleep for 10 days straight you can die. I'm worried since I haven't slept at all yet, not even one hour.
One sheep, two sheep, three sheep, four sheep. How many fucking sheep are there? 

Day 4:
I can't go to sleep. I'm in agony. All I do is read, I spend twilight hours in front of a computer surfing the internet, now I know how to do origami. Lots of origami. Thanks internet.
Lights incense. Many books on top of each other.

Day 5:
I can't go to sleep. I can't sleep. I can't sleep. I wonder if I can knock myself out? I could lose conciousness but it might be worth it if I wake up bright and early. That didn't work. I need to go for a jog. I know its the middle of the night but I can't stay here all night again. JOG.

Day 6:
I can't go to sleep. Why can't I sleep? Maybe I need to hit the bottle really hard tonight. That didn't seem to work, maybe I'll just drink another bottle. If that doesn't work, maybe i'll drink a bottle of everclear and see what that does.
Maybe a couple beers late will work. One beer.  Two beers. Three beers. Six beers.

Day 7:
I can't go to sleep. Why do drugs if all I have to do is stay awake this long.

Day 8:
I can't go to sleep. (Crying) I don't know what is wrong with me.

Day 9:
I can't go to sleep. I got fired from work this morning, saying I've been daydreaming instead of working. I think I'm going to kill myself. What if I die and go to where I can't rest?

Day 10:
I can't go to sleep. Maybe I just need sleep. I don't even know if I'm talking out loud or just hearing inner voice aloud.
