The Pursuit of Happiness

In this shot, we have a long shot showing location. We can see that we are downtown somewhere, the buildings can tell us what part of downtown. We also see two characters interacting together, playing basketball on a rooftop.


In this next shot we are at the steps of the Pacific Coast Stock Exchange, and at the foot of the stairs, we have a bright red Ferrari. Notice how everything is either white, or off white, except for the car. This is a way of showing importance to the car, not only as a fantastic vehicle, but it’s adding some symbolism to the car, it’s something to strive to achieve.


In this last shot, we have the main character looking away from his son, crying. He’s holding his son in his arms, his son is just below the camera at this point. You can see something is wrong, very wrong.
