Music video treatment

EXT. AIRPLANE

A small airplane can be see off in the distance. The shot moves in closer to it. The airplane is flying above an island. The plane circles a couple of times and then begins to land.

IINT. AIRPLANE

Elvis can be seen from front. He is gripping the armrests and his eyes are tightly closed. He is mouthing, “I hate flying” over and over again.

EXT. AIRPLANE

Airplane lands on a small runway. Elvis jumps out and kisses the ground. Just as fast, he gets up ready to meet the natives and sell his goods. He looks around and sees no one. He sets up a booth of strange health foods, his own creations. They are all different strange shapes and colors. They don’t appear edible. Still no one shows up. Elvis starts to whistle to amuse him self.

EXT. ISLAND Afternoon

He natives finally start to show up. They are slowly coming out o the trees. They have bone piercings and are wearing loincloths. They stare in bewilderment at Elvis. He jumps up u=when he sees them and starts to talk about his food. The natives don’t understand him and just keep staring. Elvis is really getting into it now, happy to have a chance to sell his food. He pops a few pieces of food in his mouth as a demonstration. The natives start to move closer and closer. Their expressions are blank. They try to sniff the food. A couple natives stick it in their mouths. They proceed to show disgusted faces and spit the foods back out. But Elvis is no discouraged. One of the natives sniffs Elvis and poking him. Elvis takes this as them trying to see how good it is for people. Another native takes Elvis by the hand and begins to lead him from the stand. Other natives can be seen in the background grabbing some of his food. Elvis smiles thinking they want to buy it. The natives smile back now.

EXT. NATIVE VILLAGE TENTS Evening

The shot starts on a fire where some food is seen burning. The shot pans up and there is Elvis on a pole over the fire. The food is being still scooped into the fire, being used as kindling. All of a sudden, all the food lets off some weird smoke and causes the natives to look away. The area is covered by smoke. Smoke clears and Elvis is gone.

EXT. FOREST

Elvis is running toward his plane, ready to be off this island and off to a new place where his food can be appreciated.

Backstory Paragraph: Elvis was born in Tulepo, Mississippi to Vernon and Gladys Presley. His identical-twin brother, Jesse, died at birth. He parents became very protective of Elvis and raised him to be God fearing. Singing came naturally to him. He seasoned his voice through singing at camps and the local Assembly of God meetinghouse. He started winning prizes at the young age of 10. His parents bought him a guitar, and he taught himself how to use it. What people didn't know about him was his secret love of healthy food. He then moved to Memphis, Tennessee. While still remaining a good child, Elvis kept up his singing till he began to be noticed, but no one noticed the other love of his. Elvis became more and more famous. Then the day came for him to share with the world his love of healthy food. He started traveling every where (and I mean everywhere) to share and sell his new healthy yet sometimes strange food products.
