The final pitch for our film trailer.

It is a mash up of Dawn of the Dead/ V for Vendetta/ Monsters.

it set with Zombies

opressive goverment

low production values, isolated area

Scenario

Zombie thriller, set years after a zombie outbreak which is covered up by an oppressive government; a group of freedom fighters trying to live in a 'infected' zone and release the truth.

'Freedom fighters', 'oppressive government'- is the character paradigm

'Outbreak'- event paradigm

'Infected zone'- is the setting paradigm

Treatment

It starts off with a video blog on ‘youtube’ where someone is talking about the infection spreading throughout London. Then a tone card says ‘years later’. We see deserted streets, there is no sounds then a man runs past the camera into the distance, we see a black silhouette, of a man, as he goes forward we see him in a suit, the good guy is in tattered clothes he reaches a fence and climbs over. The other man runs up and sees the sign which says ‘infected zone’. Fade to black.

Another tone card says ‘where the dead don’t sleep’. We see a point of view from a security camera which pans with the good guy. The camera is portioned at the end of the path, he strolls up towards the door, the camera switches to a close up of his hand knocking, and the door is open. The camera switches back which sees the door slowly open. We see the back of a silhouetted man (the fact that he is a zombie is implied), he looks like he may be feasting on an another man. We see a close up of the good guys face, as he backs off. The camera is back at the end of the path; the man slowly backs off after dropping his bat and runs off.

A third tone card shows ‘a cover up that costs the lives of millions’.  Shot from the end of a professional looking corridor or a bunker. Two people are talking one gives the other a envelope, they walk in opposite directions, the camera tracks the person with the envelope he walks into a room the camera is at an over the shoulder shot. He walks in the room, someone is sitting at the desk dress professionally, and says ‘we’re compromised’ hands the letter to him and says ‘his back’, they open the envelope on the table lifts it up to their face and sees an image from the CCTV camera from earlier of the man walking.

The music kicks in and we see a variety of action shots, mostly of running. Then back to the house the camera tracks towards the open door, the zombie looks up with blood around its mouth. We only see this for a second before the title ‘THE RETURN’ flashes up to the screen. It is undecided but we may have the traditional zombie noise is heard over the Title.
