The next screen is a shot of New Zealand bush, with two men wearing orange caps emerging from behind trees. The camera angle changes to show a close up of the first man. He's carrying a firearm pointed downwards and appears to be a hunter.
As he moves towards the camera, we see a second man, also a hunter, coming up on the trail behind him. He is also carrying a firearm, but on his back.
The camera angle changes to show the men approaching a clearing. The next shot is from behind Hunter 1, who is crouched down on the ground in front of the clearing. He looks through his binoculars.
The camera angle changes again to show the clearing and the men crouched down in the foreground, with their backs to camera. Hunter 2 is looking through his binoculars. Hunter 1 sets his binoculars down.
Hunter 2: "Hey mate, just a bit down off the ridge by the patch of scrub. You see it?
Hunter 1 picks his binoculars back up again and looks through them.
The next shot is a close up in front of the hunters. They are both kneeling on the ground looking through their binoculars.
Hunter 1: "Yeah I do see it."
The next shot is a view through binoculars up through a ridge. A fallow deer can be seen at the top of the ridge. Gentle rain is falling.
Hunter 2: "Yeah sweet I'll take the shot."
The scene changes back to a close up in front of the hunters. They are both kneeling on the ground and Hunter 2 is looking through his binoculars.
Hunter 1: "Oh I'm not happy with that firing zone mate."
The camera angle changes again to show the men crouched down in the foreground, with their backs to camera. Hunter 2 is looking through his binoculars.
Hunter 1: "Just jump out of your binos for a second. Have a look."
The next shot is a wide angle drone shot from above and behind the hunters, looking down as they kneel on the ground looking at the ridge line.
At the bottom of the screen, white text appears on a dark green background. It reads: "Before you shoot, ask yourself: 'What could happen if I miss my target?"
The scene changes back to the drone flying over the top of the men and across the clearing towards the ridge. The drone footage speeds up until it reaches the top of the ridgeline and over the other side. We can hear a dog barking and see another ridge in the distance.
The text disappears off the bottom of the screen.
The drone footage speeds up and then slows to zoom in on a farmer walking across the second ridge, whistling to his dog who runs to join him.
The scene changes back to show the men crouched down in the foreground, with their backs to camera.
Hunter 1: "We don't know where the bullet's going to end up if it were to pass over the top."
Hunter 2: "Yeah. Fair point. I had a bit of the old tunnel
vision going on, I just had my mind on the deer."
The next shot is a close up in front of the hunters. They are both kneeling on the ground and have binoculars in their hands as they look off camera towards the ridge line.
Hunter 1: "Nah all good, all good. We'll just let it feed down a little bit..."
The next shot is a view through binoculars up through the ridge. A fallow deer can be seen at the top of the ridge. A small dark green banner with white text appears on screen. The text reads: "Never shoot at a target on the skyline." The banner has a white line leading from it to the deer.
Hunter 1: "...or uh have a look for another one."
The scene changes back to show the men crouched down in the foreground, with their backs to camera. Hunter 2 is looking through his binoculars.
At the bottom of the screen, white text appears on a dark green background. It reads: "Be aware of the area between you and your target, and the area beyond the target."
Hunter 2: "Yeah sweet."
The next shot is focused on the ridgeline in the distance, with the hunters out of focus in the foreground, with their backs to the camera. The scene changes to show footage from the drone, high up above the men. The ridge can be seen in the distance.
A white circle appears on-screen, containing close-up footage of the deer moving along the top of the ridge, against the skyline.
The text disappears off the bottom of the screen.
Another white circle appears, containing close-up footage of the farmer walking with his dogs on the far ridge. A dog can be heard barking in the distance.
Each circle has a white line pointing back from it to the ridge line where the fallow deer was spotted.
A transparent red funnel shape appears in mid screen between the two circles, representing the direct line of sight that the hunters have up to the top of the ridge.
The scene changes to drone footage panning high across a valley covered in trees and bushland.
At the bottom of the screen, white text appears on a dark green background. It reads: "Remember projectiles can travel very long distances."
The next shot is a close up of the two hunters walking through bush. Hunter 2 is in front, carrying his firearm, which is pointed downwards.

Hunter 2: "I've got one."
The camera angle changes to show a close up in front of the hunters. Hunter 2 is lying on the ground looking through the scope of his firearm pointed ahead at a target. Hunter 1 is kneeling upwards, looking through binoculars towards the grassy hill.
Hunter 1: "You happy with that deer mate?
The next shot is a view through binoculars towards the grassy hill. A fallow deer can be seen grazing on the hill. It's raining lightly.
Hunter 2: "Yeah fallow doe, just turning side on now."
The camera angle changes back to a close up in front of the hunters. Hunter 2 is lying on the ground looking through the scope of his firearm pointed ahead at a target. Hunter 1 is kneeling upwards, looking through binoculars towards the grassy hill.
Hunter 1: "Nice. Where are you going to place the shot?"
The next scene is a view through the firearm scope, with crosshairs focused on a fallow deer grazing on the grass. It's raining lightly.
Hunter 2: "Just behind the shoulder."
Hunter 1: "Perfect."
The camera angle changes back to a close up in front of the hunters who are now standing. Hunter 1 is standing behind Hunter 1, looking at the target through his binoculars. Hunter 2 has his firearm raised and pointed towards his target. He's looking through the firearm scope.
Hunter 1: "You happy with your firing zone? Just have a check."
The camera zooms in slightly. Hunter 2 takes his eye away from the firearm scope to view his firing zone from a distance.
Hunter 2: "Yeah mate. Big hill - it's all clear."
Hunter 1: "Nice..."
The shot changes back to a close up from behind the two hunters in the foreground, with their backs to camera. A large grassy hill can be seen in the distance. Hunter 1 is looking through his binoculars and Hunter 2 is pointing his firearm up towards the hill.
Hunter 1: "...when you're ready bro."
The scene changes to show a close up of a firearm in the hands of someone.

The next scene is a view through the firearm scope, with crosshairs focused on a fallow deer grazing on the grass.
The scene changes to a view behind Hunter 2's shoulder as he lies on the ground with his firearm aimed at the target. He takes a shot.
[BANG]
The shot rings out across the valley.
The camera angle changes back to a close up in front of the hunters. Hunter 1 is standing behind Hunter 1, looking at the target through his binoculars. Hunter 2 still has his firearm raised and pointed towards the target. He's looking through the firearm scope.
Hunter 1: "Nice mate! Solid hit. She's down."
Hunter 2 stops looking through his firearm scope and lowers it, grinning widely. Hunter 1 lowers his binoculars and smiles back at Hunter 2 who turns to grin at him.
Hunter 1: "Nice work!
Hunter 2: "Ha ha, yeah bro!"
The scene changes back to drone footage panning high across the hillside. A river can be seen running through the valley at the bottom of the hill.
Hunter 1: "We'll go her her aye?"
Hunter 2: "Yeah."
(Green screen fades in over the men. There's a border on the top of the screen and the bottom of the screen which is a tohu design. Text in large writing says "Rule 5: Check your firing zone." More text appears below that reads: "Be aware of the area between you and your target, and the area beyond the target. Before you shoot, ask yourself: 'What could happen if I miss my target?' Never shoot at a target on the skyline."
