New scene

Traiuin scene

Music changing  - peaceful

Match cuts

Sound Getting  heavier – distorshion in music- something dark waiting to happen

People in this scene – same people as before however they are happier. However hthey will become dark and gloomy and lost

There is more colour in this scene, in all of the buildings

I split this scene into two. Firstly how everyone was dark and gloomy, then a flash back when everyone was bright and happy
