Role Allocation

As a group, it was decided that we would all take a hand on approach to the production. The original idea for a zombie film came as a result of group discussion, with several names then flying around for who would star in it, who would film it and who would edit it.

After some weeks we decided to keep the production small and do everything ourselves, with little outside interaction. Together, myself, Laura and Faye wrote several pitches and decided that because of the complexity of the film, we would all need to take it in turns holding the camera at different points of the production. We involved Jack Wright in our production, who also helped with most of the initial filming.

For our dress rehearsal, we enlisted the help of Sam Houseago in the make up for the zombies. It was later decided that due to creative differences with the style of make up used, that Faye and Jack would undertake the task themselves.

As for editing the final piece, it will be a group effort and we will discuss and compromise if need be. The music is a role that I have decided to undertake myself, as I have a BTEC National Diploma in Music Technology.

Also, for the final film, we decided that myself and Jack Wright would be the ones who undertake the filming process, as others would have too much make up on to be able to film any sequences without spoiling the camera equipment.

The roles will now remain as they are, as I am vehemently opposed to having an outside make up designer help us for the actual shoot.
