Photorealistic, POV Survival Footage, Vertigo-Inducing, Gritty and Dirty, GoPro/Action Camera Aesthetic.
Cinematography:
First-Person Perspective (POV) dangling from a rope. The camera swings wildly, looking down at a sheer drop. The view is filled with brown mud and debris. The lighting is low contrast, making the white kitten stand out against the dark mud.
Scene:
Halfway down the muddy cliffside. A small, terrified white kitten is clinging desperately to an exposed tree root protruding from the mud. Rocks and dirt are constantly falling past the kitten into the darkness below.
Actions:
The camera (rescuer) rappels down aggressively, boots kicking against the sliding mud wall to brake. The rescuer swings toward the tree root. A clump of mud falls, nearly knocking the kitten off. The rescuer shouts "Come here!", reaches out with a gloved hand, and snatches the kitten by the scruff just as the tree root snaps and falls away. The rescuer tucks the kitten safely into a pouch on their chest.
Background Sound:
The squishing sound of mud. The tension of the rope creaking. The kitten’s high-pitched, terrified mewing. The rescuer’s strained grunts of effort and a breathless "Gotcha, you're safe now." The sound of the tree root snapping and falling into the abyss.
