Teacher Left The Lights On

Slow tracking shot down a dim high school hallway at night, 35mm anamorphic lens, shallow focus. One classroom door is ajar, warm yellow light spills out. The camera pushes in through the doorway to reveal desks in a perfect circle, all facing inward. In the center, a single backpack rocks slightly. The chalkboard reads in shaky writing. The camera circles 180 degrees around the room, catching each empty chair as if someone just stood. Warm practical classroom light vs cold hallway fluorescents, film grain, realistic school textures, distant echoing drip.
