About Goodmorning Sleepyhead
How the clip plays out
A hand holds a speaker up to someone asleep on the ground in a concrete underpass. The sleeper jolts awake, scrambles up and sprints down the walkway toward the camera. The wake-up, the panic and the run all happen in one handheld phone shot. SameButMe puts you in the sleeper's place.

The right photo
One person, with a face the camera can still find sideways.
- Waist-up or full body: the clip goes from lying down to a full run.
- Eyes open or closed makes no difference; the sleeping and the shock are added for you.
- Casual clothes work best, since you are about to be caught asleep in them.
