Walking Disaster
The Pitch
Opening in a family home, a mother asks a child to go to pick up some grocery items. As he ventures towards the store, all sorts of disasters start happening to him, from typhoons, cars exploding, missiles shooting at him (all Getty stock footage him), he goes to the store, the nice grocery lady smiles at him. Gives him a scratch card for lottery. She says something for your mother. He walks back same time happens, (disasters). A young girl walks past him, we see the innocence lost. He returns back home. Mother asks if anything happen. Kids says just the usual. Mother scratches the card. She says she has won. Child looks at the prize. Congratulations you have won world peace for the day. End.
