Opening Idea First Draft - Final Project

This is the opening scenario of my final project. It is a basic draft so it doesnt have a title or character names.


The film opens with a shot of a TV playing a news cast, showing reports of violent attacks. The channel is then flicked over multiple times, to other news channels, showing reports of violent attacks, outbreaks, world wide chaos and that the dead is walking the earth. The TV then goes all static, before the screen turns to black. The films title then splats across the screen like blood and then drips off the screen. The same effect is repeated for the rest of the opening credits. After the opening credits, it cuts to the main protagonist (insert name), running down a rural cycle track, reaching the bottom of a hill. He stops and looks up to the top of the hill, where he sees his friend (insert name) get over run by zombies, as some have started to maul him to death, while the rest run past still in pursuit of (insert name). (Insert name) starts to run, still following the cycle track, with the zombies still in hot pursuit of him, as he is running, the film freezes on him, this is where his opening monologue begins. While he is in freeze frame the background goes all red and outline features of (insert name) are all turned to black, with the out line of zombies in the background going black, and (insert name) name appears next to his outline. The frame then unfreezes and (insert name) then carries on running, with his monologue still playing, two more zombies then jump out of a bush taking him by surprise and follow in the chase of (insert name). After running a bit more, he appears in front of 5 strangers, who tell him to get down, as the stranger then open fire on the zombies, taking them all down. One zombie is still alive on the floor as one of the strangers walks over and savagely beats the zombie to death. The stranger then walks back to the rest of his crew and the film freeze frames again on these five people, with the same red and black filter affect happening, and it introducing them as the Outlaws. The leader of the Outlaws, (insert name), then introduces his gang and all its members, (insert names), and then telling (insert name), that they can take him to safety.

Continuity Task - Updates

Filming for this project is almost complete, but a few problems have occured, and we are stook filming with filming the final few scenes. Weather and problems with the actors (pfft actors, am I right people?) have ment we havn't been able to film the final scenes. However the footage we have got does work well with out them, so if we don't film them, I will rewrite the script and just leave it how it is. As regards to the script, I will have to rewrite it anyway, as we have made numerous changes, while filming, that have enabled to make filming easier and made the film alot more entertaining in our opinion. James has already edited the footage we already have, so if we don't get the final footage in, then we have basically finished, because we already have all the different continuity tasks in the footage we have :) More updates soon, sport fans :) x

Continuity Task - Filming - Day 1

Me and James (Sgt Pepper Productions) have been out shooting the outside shoots and the opening to our movie, we have had several brain storms while filming, so there are loads of newly created shots. Filming went very smoothly, only one or two problems involving passin people but nothing major. Filming should continue later on today with the filming of a few inside shots. I have managed to get some fine actors to star in our film, Oliver Clarkson, William Cawley and Johnathon Moore. Will report back with how it goes :) x
