Possible Locations
This location is the 2nd level cross bridge in the southern block of the school, near the art blocks, this location has excellent lighting in the day time due to one entire side being windows, the bridge is wider than the hallways so its a good space to have a crowd of zombies run through while we either track along side, steady cam infront or b

This location is the 3rd level floor of the northern block of the college, picked for the main starting point for the chaos, the science rooms are purely white almost everywhere meaning a lot of surfaces for light to reflect off and brighten up the scene, being the top floor there are a lot more light let in by all the windows of the science lab, leading down the hallway gets to a wider and more open hall leading to the sociology classrooms. The location of the sociology classroom is perfect for a zombie swarming location, having zombies pour out from the doors and halls as well as a scene for zombies to be devoured or even run after survivors.

This location is an important filming location, though we could use the entire walk way and road for another scene for scattered zombies all just wandering around aimlessly or even running zombies, but this location is key for the first establishing shot for the trailer showing the college the zombie outbreak occurs.

Chosen locations for filming
Sports hall male changing room - Bathroom scene.
The bathroom and locker scenes are located in the same place so we can film them both at almost the same time. This scene will be a jump scare where an actor is jumped by a zombie from behind, the bathroom is big enough for a camera crew but the mirrors are small and could prove problematic when filming. For shots 31, 32, 33. The lighting in this room is bright and good as well the clean environment gives of an atmosphere of order and peace so its easy to spot a difference in setting when chaos is introduced such as a victim being jumped and attacked by a single or group of zombies. |
Sports hall male changing room - Locker scene.
The locker are needed for shots 24,25 and 26 and are located right next to the bathroom scene allowing us to film both scenes in the same location. The locker room is in the same location as the bathroom and is great for filming shots 24,25 and 26 due to the nature of the shots, the lighting is perfect with the white fluorescent lights above making any blood special effects on the floor visible and clear as day. |
Level 2 Corridor - Business block zombie attack.
level 2 corridor - Business block zombie attack scene.
This location is for shot 21 and the best angle for filming is the picture above, in this scene a victim is on the floor reaching out towards the camera while a zombie behind him grabs him and plans to drag the victim away while a 2nd zombie walks on set from the left joining in on the attack of the victim. The shot will be a Mid - Long shot looking down angle for the victim us on the floor clinging to the corner reaching towards the camera man for help, no dialogue. This location has poor lighting and we might have to use portable lighting to brighten it if its too dark or we could leave it and use the natural lighting to add to the dark atmosphere of zombies running around the college. |
Level 3 Bridge between north and south blocks - Chase scene.
level 3 bridge between north and south blocks - chase scene.
This location is for shots 19 and 20. Shot 19 will be survivors running looking behind them at the camera being chased by a horde of zombies that show in shot 20 where the camera will turn 180 and look behind the survivors at the double doors where a large group of zombies will crowd through chasing after the survivors. This is above the 2nd floor Bridge and the large wall sized windows on the right of the first photo, allow a lot of light to shine through, so with the camera placed in the location the photo to the right was taken the light shining through will illuminate the zombies allowing a clear view of the scene. Sociology stair case - stairs chase scene.
This is stair case in the south block right next to the level 3 bridge between north and sough blocks. Leading to the sociology classrooms. This location will be for shot 22 and 30, the picture above is for shot 22 when Survivors will be running up the stairs away from zombies then shining a light down the stairs we will film shot 30 where zombies crowd the stair case looking up towards the camera. |
Sociology stair case - Shot 30
These stairs will be used to recreate a shot we saw in "rec" where zombies would suddenly crowd around the banisters of the stairs, the picture above is the exact planned shot were we will positon zombies down along the banisters to look up at the camera, The liog |
Any double door and jump scene.
For Shot 17 any good double door with space is good enough, all we need is a low angle shot of a zombie eating a victim, these will be the top 2 double doors.
The red double doors on the right is part of another jump scene, we are using this location because the zombie will come bursting through the doors and with these doors being right at the top of stairs we can position the camera on the steps with a low angle shot so the zombie can appear more intimidating, For shots: 23, 27 and 29. These locations will need portable light sources for filming as its too dark at each location as evident with the use of flash, we just simply need a pair of double doors for a jump scare or montage scene. |
Zombie eating scene.
These pictures for the Zombie eating scene were a person is being eaten while another survivor runs away towards the right side of the shot. The first picture on the top left shows what the camera will be seeing when filming the bottom 2 pictures are other angles of the location showing what space we have for setting up our crew an filming the scene. The scene will be Mid-long shot with a wide angle shot.
|
The picture above shows the very location of the camera, the camera is going to be on the right side of the double red doors in the corner with the radiator while the picture below is the a short corridor the running survivor will run out from to see the group of zombies eating then turn and run to his left off shot on the right side of the camera.
|
These locations above we well lit and will most likely not need any portable light source depending on time of filming on the day, the wide open spaces allows us to place a dead body in the centre and have a clear shot for recording of zombie eating unlucky victims for montage sequence in the trailer.
Level 3 Corridor and fire alarm -
Level 3 Corridor with the fire alarm that will feature in shot 6 where a rebel triggers the fire alarm, in this shot we won't actually hit the fire alarm instead we will just get him to give the appearance of punching the fire alarm but the shot will cut just before impact o a black screen where the fire alarm sound effects will ring off.
The top right and bottom right pictures will be used for shots 4 where rebels will be running in the corridor, shot 9 for when the science students leave the science lab and the rebel students hiding to get into the science lab and finally shot 29 with zombies pouring through the corridor and out of each door. This shooting location will be used for the fire alarm scene, when the rebel student set the fire alarm off to get students out of the science lab so the rebel students can sneak in, the lighting as you can see is good but plans are just a close up of the fire alarm and the rebel students running down the hallway. |
level 3 science class room - Science lab infection scene.
These pictures are located in the 2nd floor science class room where the rebel students sneak into with shots 10, 11, 13, 14 and 15 where the rebel students mess around with chemicals and accidentally hit the plant where the chemicals mix with he plant and create an infectious new disease trigger by the rebel students.
These pictures above are real vile of transparent liquids that we will only use as part of the scene not the actual props, we might actually if we get a chance to set up science equipment as part of the look of the setting.
|
The picture above and bellow are just different angle shots of the same scene where the rebel students get infected.
This is a possible location for the science lab scene when rebel students throw the veils around and cause and accident and create a strain of zombie virus. the lighting is good and the wide open areas are good for throwing "fake" veils around. The picture above and to the left are pictures of the plants we found in the science lab, that we will use in the actual scene we film, the middle plant with the strange dark purple color is defiant look we could use for the plant in our trailer.
