No More Society Script
1.INTRO
OUT. TOKYO STREETS. NIGHT.
A long-distance shot shows people walking through the Tokyo streets, lightened by neon lights. With a short transition, the shot changes to a close-up of Kawaru’s cigarette.
Takes a puff on the cigar. He starts walking. The camera shows a close-up of the side view of his face.
The camera angle changes to a medium shot showing Police Officer running in the same direction that Kawaru walks.
One of the cops pushes Kawaru. He looks back while Kawaru is getting stand.
The Police officer runs to go along with the rest. Kawaru stands again.
Kawaru goes in front of a building where the cops are covered. Kawaru turns the corner, meanwhile, at the background, the police officers get in the building yelling.
Put your hands up! This is a raid!
Kawaru walks through the dark street and then the police sirens begin to sound.
Kawaru stops in front of a door, he kicks it and opens it completely.
INS. ILEGAL CASINO. NIGHT.
With the police sirens and slot machine sound at the background, there is a crossed shooting between the police officer, at the left; and the gangster, at the right. After a long shot showing the entire situation, the camera changes the angle shown Kawaru’s face for the first time, and he pulls out two guns from his backside of the pants.
Context
This script was made as one of the practices of the Narrative Course for Video Games at Gametopia. The intention was to create an introduction for a punk game, similar to No More Heroes (the name itself is a reference to this one). Unlike other scripts, no deeper idea was explored than having a 90’s style antihero.
