Make Up




This is a picture of the set out of my make up for my movie opening, I have various shades of foundation, paint suitable for use of skin, some spone for application, a plastic tray for mixing, face wipes for removal, scissors and white tac for creating the bullet hole on my actors head.

This is the video that gave me the idea of a cheap headshot effect that looks realistic, although instead of his components I decided to cut the cost down even further by using, tissue paper, stage foundation, paint and fake blood.

this is another photo of my storyboard, I have gone over the pencil lines in pen to make it more visible. it is the same as in the last picture , I have made no changes whatsoever.

Storyboard


This is a picture of my storyboard for my film opening, it has 16 frames giving a semi detailed view of what my scene will look like, as it is sketched in pencil it is difficult to see as a photograph therefore after posting this i will go over the pencil lines with pen and re post it in a clearer format, the picture was taken on an IPod touch 4th gen which has an HD camera so I know that the reason the storyboard is difficult to see is due to pencil and not a poor quality camera.

Survey

I have conducted a survey about peoples preference in zombie related movies and the results are below...

Which of the following would you rather see in a Zombie Film?...

Suspence: 6
Horror: 7
Blood/Gore: 9
Comedy: 3
Firearms: 6
Blunt Weapons (Bats,Clubs etc.): 5
Chase: 8
Sad Death (Lover/Parent etc.): 11
Protaganist Death/Live:
Dies: 9
Lives: 10
Would you rather a clear Antagonist or a coincidental outbreak?:
Antagonist (Terrorist etc.): 6
Coincidence (Natural Virus mutation/accidental outbreak of medicine etc.): 9

Using these results I decided that the majority would prefer a "classic" zombie film including an accidental outbreak along with weapons, blood, a chase and good old fashioned horror where the main character pulls through after heartache my results also back up my target audience theory and includes the result that audiences prefer suspense to comedy...

Target Audience

My target audience is rather steriotypical of zombie based films, a model of the person in minds appearence is a teenage male who have a knowledge of this genre and like a thrill or two, they tend to watch these style movies more than any other and prefer the classic survival type zombie film instead of the more modern comedy surrounded horror films such as "Zombieland" and "Shaun of the Dead".
