My story;

It is a normal college day and a group of students are standing and hearing this speech about EMA and university funding and the increase. The crowd hearing this speech didn’t know that in that speech there is a few cursing words which can change people into zombies. The person who gave the speech was actually seeing this as an investigation into research on the human body. Then at lunchtime one student who heard the speech started to get really itchy on his arm and he started scratching. The scratch started to get worse on his arm that it started bleeding and so his friend looked concerned and he tried stopping his friend from scratching their skin. Then suddenly the person which was scratching his skin frantically suddenly stopped scratching and froze, and then he attacked his friend and bit him on the neck. At that moment all you can hear is screams and shouting all students are running around trying to get away from him. Meanwhile two students a male and female are in college in a classroom doing some extra studying. The two are in an art classroom doing some extra work, when all of a sudden they start hearing screams and groaning form the corridors. The two people leave the class room confused and wondering what the all the fuss is about they see these horrific ugly creatures eating away at a student and they scream and run away. As the two students scream and run off the opposite direction they grab the attention of the zombies. The zombies then start chasing them. As the two friends are trying to run away more and more zombies start to chase them. The two friends find a place to hide and they start trying to contact their family asking for help. Then form the two friends the male character gets trapped and then killed by the zombies and the female escapes by a hidden passage way.

Story summery;

A normal college day, one college student is trying to make his way through college life. As days go by the expenses of education start to rise, so he attends an open speech about fundraising and the younger generation, knowing little that the speech is actually brainwashing students and turning them into zombies as he eats his friend wreaks havoc over the college. Meanwhile the two friends who were doing extra studying in an art class hear shouting and groaning and go and investigate on what’s going on. They then realise they have to run for their lives to survive.

• The characters relationship between the two friends is that they are class mates.
• The boy struggling with college life, well his relationship toward his friend is that they are best friends.
• The style I want this film is in modern 21^st century lifestyle, keeping the script short and simple. I want to show the ranges of light and tone through the camera shots and angles.
• The length of my trailer would be three minutes long.
• The possible locations I would be heading for is at college, in an art classroom, in an art corridor and other small compact places around the college.

I am intending on carrying and using this idea as a guide line of my new treatment draft. I want this film idea done by college students and I will be using the equipment we are given. The main reason why I am doing this is to show that we are all categorised into some community when in fact we all have a personality and individuality.
