A realistic vertical 9:16 video filmed from a first-person POV using an action camera.
The camera wearer is standing at a grocery store checkout line.
In front of the camera is an older American man working as a cashier, late 60s to early 70s.
Everyday supermarket environment, fluorescent lights, normal customers around.
Interaction:
The camera wearer calmly asks: “Did you ever serve in the military?”
The cashier looks up and answers naturally.
Veteran’s dialogue (calm, honest, not dramatic): “Yeah. Army.
Served a long time ago.
I’m still working because retirement doesn’t always mean what people think it does.
I’m doing alright though.”
Natural pauses, realistic tone.
No music, no cinematic effects.
Documentary realism, subtle emotional weight.
