Cold Coffee

Live-action photoreal, present day. A half-empty late-night diner, chrome and vinyl booths, a rain-blurred neon sign through the window. Night, quiet. A person in a denim jacket sits alone in a booth over a cold coffee, both hands around the mug, staring past it. A jukebox, a half-eaten slice of pie, steam long gone. Warm interior tungsten with cold pink-and-blue neon spill from outside. 50mm, slow dolly in. Shallow depth of field, soft grain, gentle motion blur, 24fps.
