Security Training: Opening Scene (Narrator)

Read, give feedback. Sorry Wes if I blew your entry away under this one, it was not my intention. More coming soon.

EXT. COLLEGE CAMPUS – DAY

College students are walking in every direction to class.

NARRATOR

In every college campus, there are those that stand out. At first glance they may appear normal, the average college student, but with a closer look they are different.

INT. CLASSROOM – MORNING

A professor is giving a lecture in front of the class. Across a row, students listen inattentively – a girl at the end of the row digs furiously into her textbook. The professor poses a question to the class. The class seems reluctant to participate; an eager hand is raised by the girl. The class turns to see who it is. She gives the correct answer with ease. The professor acknowledges her, and writes it on the dry erase board. The students turn back to the professor. (One of the students goes back to sleep)

NARRATOR

These individuals you may encounter either day or night, on the streets or in the classrooms, rain or shine. They are hard working, excelling in whatever they do.

INT. DINING HALL – DAY

A cashier takes the cash of a two guys buying food. The two guys go to a table to sit down and have lunch. One guy is playing with his food. He takes a pea off his plate and throws it in the air, then catches it with his mouth. His friend motions for him to throw him one, and he does; he catches it and stands up in celebration, then begins to choke. His friend panics and doesn’t know what to do. The cashier quickly grabs the guy choking and performs the Heimlich maneuver and he spits the pea out. In relief, his friend comes over and thanks the cashier; the guy saved thanks the cashier with an exhausted look.

NARRATOR

They are the first to act, when help is in need, they do not hesitate. They are the heroes that put other people above themselves. They are your campus Security Guards.

EXT. COLLEGE CAMPUS – DAY

College students stop to see a homeless man run with a purse. A student is on his pursuit and tackles him to the ground. The homeless man drops the purse and scatters to retreat. A fearful girl approaches the scene and stops. A purse is handed to her. The guy stands tall and applause is motioned from the students nearby.

INT. LIVING ROOM – NIGHT

A cozy room is warmed by a fireplace. A man is sitting in a comfy seat.

NARRATOR

Hardworking, Responsible, Leadership. These are the characteristics that define a Security Guard. Welcome to Security Training. Those of you that are sitting here today have been chosen because you have stood out among the many.

As a Security Guard, these characteristics will help you along the way, but this is only the beginning. There are many different elements to the job, which you will learn today in this training video. Knowing procedures, conduct, and customer service will be necessary to do your job well.

Every security desk has a security manual, where you will find all there is to know about Dormitory Security. Now, I could sit here and read to you all the procedures and try to be as specific as possible, but that would only tell you what’s on paper, no other interpretation but literal facts. Though knowing is half the answer, only through experience will you get complete understanding. That is why I won’t read this to you, or show you a PowerPoint, even if I did spend all last night making it. Instead, I will tell you a story of a Guard named Brian. Brian was a new guard, much like most of you sitting here today, and through his time as a Security Guard, he had learned a great deal of the job. He was a boy with a heart of gold, eager to take on responsibilities, even when sometimes they were greater than he could handle. What do I mean by that? Well, you’ll just have to see for yourself.

It all started on his first day as a Dormitory Security Guard…
