For this project I had to come up with a feature film idea including the locations, characters, plot, costumes and some dialog.
I came up with a zombie film where people turned into zombies through a hypnotising virus that circulated around facebook, and the protagonist was really anti facebook and technology.
My pitch went well and it was chosen to be one of 3 films we made during the lesson, however we used a sony video camera to record it and then when we tried to get the footage off we had a whole raft of problems, which was annoying. We filmed the scene where Will (computer guy) is trying to crack the anti virus and Rod (the anti technology guy) holds the zombie back. Unfatunately we couldn't edit it together or show the rest of the class, but everyone worked pretty well together to make it.
Then everyone had to make a trailer for their own film. I didn't do this until I got back on campus, and it was pretty difficult to convince everyone to be a zombie because it was cold. But thankfully Jack and Neil were willing to run around and shout things outside for me. The trailer was only meant to be 30 seconds long, but 50 was the best I could get with it still making sense, some people were over 2 mins so I don't think I did too badly.
Here it is:
