1. An indistinct blurry, light shimmering form fills the screen, the click and whir of something can be heard, maybe a faint melody.
After Effects
- Build fan, import to after effects, alter
2. A massive grey skeletal wall of hardened organic forms fills the screen.

3. The shot zooms in on a patch of brightened area, a pinkish tendril like door with a girl standing before it.

4. The new scene is a pair of eyes opening, looking down at strangely large hands on a duvet cover / blanket. The scene is very dark, the rest of the room is unviewable. The sense of the body of the protagonist is emphasised, all is silent but her breathing and heartbeat. When she breathes out, cold air forms little clouds.

5. The girl is walking through the door, we see it is made from fleshy neural pieces. A sharp noise accompanies an electrical flash and explosion and the camera is sucked forward, light illuminating a corridor that grows before it.

6. The scene is brighter, the room is made visible. It is a small, stark room with faded wallpaper, a window with the curtains drawn to the left of the bed, a door on the opposite wall which is slightly ajar, a sliver of silver light creating a line of light on the floor. At the end of the bed a woman sits completely still her head turned towards the window, her head is of a bird of some description. The atmosphere is sinister, the only sound is still the breathing of the protagonist.
The door is slowly moving letting the light spill across the floor revealing floorboards.

7. The light spill crosses the library shelves, revealing Emily reading a book from the shelves as she stands. Quick cut flash to the previous scene door opening. The tendrils are moving, creating more intricate shelf structures, that get higher and higher.

8. The bedroom is brighter and changed, the woman is gone, it is longer and the tendrils are growing up the walls in the shadows almost imperceptibly. The light dims and brightens, the scene blurs. She is moving, we hear the rustle of her clothes, the music surges slightly.

9. The corridor is altered, grander, stronger, more complex. Emily looks upward and the camera follows her gaze. An electrical pulse is bringing the the building to life. It is stories and stories high of flying buttresses heavy with the stucco of moving cerebral tissue laden with books.

10. Likewise the bedroom is much bigger now and brighter still, the wallpaper has been replaced by plain white walls the curtains are a different colour and a vase of flowers sits on the chair at the end of the bed. The view is from someone standing and walking. The chopping noise of the fan is still audible.

- Build scene in after effects
11. On the beat of the chopping noise the camera flies out of the top of the building revealing a bizarre landscape of a massive building that is growing. There are staircases that stop midway through poking out the top of the building, archways to nowhere, light and sparks flicker across is illuminating it as it does so.

12/ The curtains are blowing in the wind, the fan whirs, she is moving, the blurry chop of the all the rhythm abstracting to the next scene. Her breathing is faster.

13. To the pulse of her breathing the shot expands out showing electricity spreading in all directions revealing a larger and larger landscape, the centre illuminated and spreading its light.

14. The camera pulls out jerkily to reveal that it is the pupil of Emily's eye. There is no sound. There is a flash of her facing herself in the mirror her hand against the glass. Black to light

15. She is in a vast mirrored hall that encircles her like a strange optical effect but she is in it. It envelops her. There is a light at one end of it, a grand hall.

17. She is now below a massive dome, immensely detailed with moving growing parts, the walls below flanked with golden books. The camera moves further and further into the dome, the chop of the fan becomes louder
