Editing the Footage

I spent a lot of time editing this footage, including time outside of lessons. The song choices have been changed as well but the overall effect is what was desired. Better footage could have been collected if i could have got a couple more actors to be zombies for me as the same zombies are used for the title sequence and the end sequence, however we had a lot of fun with it and there is also a bloopers reel (sorry for the language). Uploading it to youtube has proven time consuming, however i will upload it to the blog as soon as i can.

Filming Day One

On tuesday 6th May, I put zombie make up on my dad and had to film him in the park on a sunny day, limping, groaning and twitching, running up to a fourteen year old girl and biting her on the arm. Following this, he had to chase my little brother into the woods (which took three takes). We got some very strange looks as there were many people in the park due to the nice weather. Luckily I was using a TV camera that was big enough for people to see so that they understood why this 54 year old man was acting so strangely. It was difficult to manage everyone as most of the actors are my friends and were mucking around and know each other well, however the shots collected were brilliant and editing is going well. All that is left to shoot now is the title sequence, end sequence and voice overs, which are being recorded this evening. Here are some photos of the make up; the practice run I did on myself, my dad with the make up and the 14 year old (Tina) becoming a zombie.
