plot walk through

The Film opens with an establish shot of a house, alarm clock is going off. Actors yawns and looks around. Yelling can be heard in the background - his family is having an argument. Actor not shown.

Dad  “turn your alarm clock off now” in an angry voice. Arguing continues as main character turns off alarm and gets dressed. Setting shows a room of a kid who is interested in skateboarding, with different posters on his wall that depict this idea.  Fully dressed in a typical outfit of somebody that skateboard wears. (black/cargo jeans, plain shirt high socks). Actor finished getting dressed walks in living room.
MOM “Jared, what did i tell you about turning your  alarm clock on”
Son “ I'm sorry” The relationship between the parents and the son is noted in which appears to be abusive although not enough is known to make this assumption thus far.
Dad drops glass on the floor, shatters every. Low angle shot of glass falling
Dad upset “clean up my glass now before I step on it”.
(low pitched ringing noise begins, kind of annoying but not loud enough yet to be a big deal for viewers.)
(furthering abusive idea) Son cleans up glass
“Now get out of my house”
Son grabs skateboard and leaves how shots of him riding down the street are shown jump cut of varying tricks.As he is going down the street he misses an Ollie and falls ringing intensifies that is a sound motif paired with his parents. Diegenic sound is not heard anymore and the ringing intensified.

At this point the son is at town center skating the stairs and we see him trying to jump over the stairs. Every Time he falls the ringing gets louder until it becomes inaudible. Quick cuts show 3-4 attempts and finally last attempt low shot slow motion. Lands it rings disappears silence for a second. Title appears on concrete next to him.
