The Giving Pump Transcript

[Background music plays]

A light, upbeat, happy, energetic track.

[Animated sequence]

We open on an icon of a Shell gas pump. A heart expands into place and pulses as pipes grow outward from the pump. We pan across the pipes, leading us to a network of frames with black and white footage of children. We push in on one of the frames and the footage shifts to color. We keep panning around this web of pipes and frames before zooming out again to reveal the pump in the center with the pulsing heart. The logo for THE GIVING PUMP appears above the pump, ideally in time with the VO.

We zoom in on the top of the pump. Numbers begin increasing, as if someone is pumping gas. “THE GIVING PUMP” logo scales down into the pump topper, with the frame drawing around it. An arrow comes down into the frame.

We follow pipes from the previous frame. Then we pan across and push in to reveal footage of children, shifting from black and white to color, as the super builds in with the pace of the VO. We continue to follow the pipes through the interconnected web of frames, zooming in and out. We resolve with all pipes leading back to the pump with the logo centered.

{Describe what is displayed on the screen}

An animated Shell pump appears on screen and lines branch out from it, connecting to video clips of children. We zoom in on the pump readout and then a title appears, followed by more clips of children and a zoom out back to the pump.
