Ideas to remember (video production)
Voice-over/depressing stuff is all actually some random person from the future, or maybe a superhero, telling a shrink about a dream. Shrink may or may not be a computer.

Scene 4
[Shot: the camera tracks around him as he turns around, staring into the distance, slowly turning opposite the motion of the camera.]
VO: The hardest part is when I find myself thinking - is this even real? Is it all a dream?
[The camera motion slows down, and everything except his face blurs.]
VO: I keep losing track of the difference. Sleep is hardly a comfort, anymore.
[Shot: just his eyes, closed tightly]
Female voice: How often is this?
[Shot cuts further out, we see he is lying on a couch. His eyes open, voice is now sync.]
Him: It all fits together. Every night is another part of it.
Voice: Do you dream anything else?
Him: Nothing that doesn't fit, somewhere.
[Shot cuts out again, and we see the source of the other voice. She is the same woman we caught a glance of in the hall.]
Her: Interesting. While constructing an alternate existence is a natural defense mechanism, most heroes manifest this by living in their secret identity. Perhaps, since you've decided to live openly as a super hero, you've needed to find other avenues.
Him: You mean I can't even live as myself if I want to?
[Black. End.]
At the moment,
miriamlives, I want you as the guest star in this last scene. It'd just be maybe an hour of filming this weekend.
