The Lowest Majority Updates, Thanks of Appreciation and Other Bits and Bobs
So "The Lowest Majority" will be definitley up soon, given the fact that is most definitley needs to be up this week in whatever shape or form it is in. From the looks of things it's pretty much sound, except from one shot where shadows of the crew and camera can be picked up, but James has tried as best he can to fix that but there is nothing else we can do to remove them completly. The audio of our movie is having some small problems but nothing that can't be fixed, just needs turning down in some cases (like on the soundtrack), turning up in other places (like the news reports) and some cases removing (some sounds from the camera can be heard in some shots). Once these problems have been ironed out, I'm sure me and James will definitley be confident that are movie will be as perfect as we can get it and ready for your viewing pleasure. It has definitley been a roller coaster of a ride doing this project and certainly a long and hard task, and it's hard to believe we pulled it off due to the amount of problems that a rose while doing this project. But in the end me and James have come through confident with what we have done and are proud of our film. There are afew thanks that need to be given out for which this film would not have been possible without them. First I would like to thank all the actors, Oliver Clarkson, William Cawley, Ellen Bradshaw, Martin Haynes, Lewis Hobson, James Corker, Craig Mullen and Jonathon Moore, you guys all did amazingly well for people who don't normaly do this sort of thing and showed up early in the morning, some with hangovers (not naming anyone... LEWIS!) and lay down in mud and got covered in make up and fake blood and what have you, so thanks to all you guys. AMAZING JOB! Next I want to thank Stuart Ellis and David Barritt for coming to the very first day we started shooting, even though we used none of the footage from then, it was still great for them to come all the way into Newton Hall to film given that they live up near Castle Eden, so thank you to them, also thanks to Lauren O Brien who did make up on that day, thanks to her as well despite the fact we didn't use the footage she still helped us out when we needed it. Next thanks to Mr Earl who helped us out by giving us tips, pointing out the problems with somethings and just helping us when we needed it, when we had no one else to turn to. Next I think the biggest and overall thanks has to go to my partner, the one and only James Burton. This guy stood by me every step of the way on this project, even at times when I was just completly screwing up and being lazy, he stood by me and never went away. He was on board from the beggining and was behind me every step of the way, he came up with amazing camera angles and shoots while filming, did the toughest and most time consuming work of editing the film together and not to mention composed the soundtrack for it. So without my partner it's safe today this film wouldn't be here today or at least would not be as good as it is. So he deserves the biggest thanks of all. On a final note I would like to show my thanks and appreciation to all things zombie related that made me so mad on the topic of the undead and such a big fan, that would influence me into writing and wanting to do this kind of movie. First the Resident Evil game franchise from which I played at such an early age (not the smartest idea for a 4-6 year old), the George A Romero movies, which offer the best look into a world ruled by zombies, given that Romero is the zombie king and just thanks to movies such as Brain Dead, Evil Dead and Return of the Living Dead and video games like Dead Rising and Left 4 Dead, things that have kept me constantly intrested in zombies, something that I'm hugly into if you havnt noticed. Anyway stay tuned as the film will be up very, very, very, shortly. x
