I have started on the story of the film, the genre is Horror and the theme is Zombies. Cliché I know as there have been loads of films with this theme and no doubt many many more.
The basic idea of the story is that a small area of the far South East of London known as South Norwood (near Croydon) is hit with a wave of zombies after an experiment to cure diseases at a fast pace turned in to a virus that is passed from person to person via bites and cuts. There is the so called protagonist called Chris is a news reporter who is caught up in the whole mess, he is a person that is up himself, egotistical, who hates the world and everyone in it and only cares about his own safety. He bumps into some unexpected visitors during his visit in South Norwood, soon enough he has found himself with a slight problem....he is half zombie and half human.
Once the story is fully written I shall begin on the script which I know will take the most amount of time. I have a film studies friend who said he will help me understand the basic concepts of script writing, telling me to look at certain scripts as well to understand when to include medium shots, extreme close ups. Being at the British Record Industry of Trust college (BRITs) I learnt many different types of camera angles, about diagetic and non-diagetic sound however, I have never been taught how to write up a script so this part will be new to me.
