My Animation Idea - The Bus

My first idea for the animation is as follows:

The stage is set in a void, an empty, dark space with a spot light in the center. Footsteps are heard and after a few seconds the character walks into sight. The camera pans upwards as the man looks towards the camera and turns to view it. He speaks to the camera, gesturing towards it. As the camera draws close the the man, the lights come on and he appears in a cue at a bus station.

The mood quickly changes and the man becomes impatient, twiddling his thumbs/rotating his cane. He reaches into his pocket for money and the camera changes to a first person shot of him looking into his hand at the change. The camera then changes back to its original shot, the villain speaks again/mumbles.

Suddenly a bus bell dings and the character looks behind him, the bus has driven by (No bus on screen, just the impression) and the character jumps, splintering his cane. The scene ends with the character running away from the camera, trying to catch his bus. Hands in the air and waving.

- I Like my original idea and want to follow it closely. As a note I need to think of how to add in the question of the characters psyche.
