Assignment Scenario
You are working for a small but ambitious production company that has been contracted to produce a short 2-3 minute zombie short film / sequence. Your short film should conform to all the usual codes and conventions used within the horror zombie film sub genre. Try to conform to all of the zombie sub genre conventions within this 2-3 minute scene.
You can choose to work individually or as part of a larger group (4 maximum). If you do choose to work in a group you must delegate responsibilities fairly (i.e.: - scriptwriter, camera person, editor, director, etc.). Witness statements are available for confirmation of equally distributed work, and observations will be made by teachers.
You must mix genres within your film so you show us a greater understanding of what is meant by the term hybrid/sub genre. Your film could start as a romantic comedy and then turn into a zombie horror film. You could even make a musical zombie film where the zombies give a little song and dance - Horror/musical.
Documentation needed for this assignment includes:
* Project Development Diary (for the duration of the project)
* Completed Workbooks (Genre, Narrative, Audience)
*Completed Single Camera Essay (500 words Minumum)
* Pre Production Materials
* Post Production Materials
* Finished Zombie Film
* Written Evaluation or Production Commentary Voice-over
(This list is just a very basic overview of what needs to be submitted. See Zombie Project Task Submission List on Moodle for a more detailed
breakdown of what is required during submission. This list will also include which elements should be completed individually and / or as part of a
group.)
