Shot list

GENERAL SHOT LIST
The date 'February 7th, 2009' appears on the black screen. 
Then, a man in a smart business suit is walking down a street in the morning [variety of shots: long shot, close ups of his face/suit, low/high angles, tracking movement], obviously on his way to work. 
He freezes in the middle of walking, his face a picture of horror.  A 360 degree pan around him adds to the surreal effect. with a zoom in to the man's right eye. [photographs - close ups of the crash]
He has seen a car crash, and photographs show parts of the crash such as broken glass and a crushed car. 
The next scene, a flashback, shows the date 'February 20th, 2009' with the man sitting in his kitchen in the morning   [long shots, close ups of his face and actions], buttering his toast and drinking his tea, reading a newspaper of that exact crash he sees in the next few weeks [close ups on newspaper's words such as crash, dead].
