Tilting wide angle footage of a group of workers wearing safety gear, standing alongside pallets and other industrial equipment and machinery in a paved area of the plant complex; multi-level industrial plant infrastructure stretches around the outskirts of the paved area beneath blue skies. Mid-view footage of two of the workers wearing blue protective clothing and white hardhats along with other safety gear; one of the men lifts his arm to point forwards as he speaks, and the second man whips his head around to look in the direction he is pointing. Tracking slow-motion, reverse view footage – creatively overexposed with a sunlit haze – of a worker, wearing safety gear, carrying a long, narrow metal grid in one arm, extending over his shoulder, walking through a section of the plant.
