Story Board – Example Only Visual reference Timeline: Hanmer Springs hot pools Kaikoura, whale watching Waipara, wineries Christchurch CBD Our video starts and we see a romantic couple enjoying a great time at night at the Hot pools. The girl says very relaxed and looking at the sunset: what a day… In that moment, the video starts rewinding and it shows us all these scenarios. We see them whale watching in Kaikoura. We cut to see part of their road trip; the woman takes video of the amazing views. The narrative continues to show them enjoying amazing wines and sea food around Waipara. They jump back into the car and we finally see them in the Riverside Market / CBD
