The story board was not completed by Jeffery so Caleb took the liberty to complete it. Michael and Caleb sat down and also completed the animatic which was not completed by Jeffery. The story board was not in order because they were not constructed properly so Caleb had to construct them on Photoshop before putting them on the website.
Caleb wrote little introductions for the story board, animatic and Art Board.However he lost his USB which consisted of the photo shoot we did on Wednesday so I would be doing another shoot for our possibly poses for our magazine and poster. I have created new banners for the site and also started on the photo board. Luckily the other group didn't delete our photos after they downloaded them onto the Mac's so we have been able to successfully upload the possible posses. Chris finished the mock ups for the posters and magazines and presented them as audience research and has started Photoshop drafts. |

Caleb and Chris now having learned to use Final Cut Pro began helping Michael to complete the photo board, however Chris was occupied with the job of producing final drafts which meant Caleb had to help more with taking photos. Chris, Caleb and Michael today completed the photo board making sure the cuts were in the right place, the pictures were in the right order, etc. Jeffery later on helped Michael and Caleb with the last few missing photos that were not taken before by Michael and Caleb.
Jeffery also today presented the group with the finished art board which was made up of the jump scare& the DNA contamination shots and began helping to take the photos to finish off the photo board. Caleb also finished the story line by using the photos himself and Michael took and placing them over the drawn out sketches made before hand on the mac and uploaded them. He did this by watching the photo board Michael was making and discussing with him which shots went where and what shots were being used, and discussed with Michael which shots would be best to use. Jeffery and Michael made 2 videos to add on to Chris's audience research. One video was for the magazine layout and the other was for the poster layout. Chris today continued his Photoshop magazine and poster drafts using the pictures from possible posses |

Tooday was the day of filming and we started off by organising our shots, and the whole group made contributions. At the begining of the day Michael was slightly late because he had to carry the props to the place we were recording but he was not too late and we were able to continue with enough time on our hands. We conducted the scenes with no make up first, and Michael with Caleb had volonteered to feature in the trailer which helped as they knew the storyline and the shots needed so the filming was smooth.
It was agreed that the scenes with blood and guts would be filmed later on so that they can be conducted in a controled environment and so that they can be given the most attention as they require the right lighting and shot angle and on top of that they would be quite long to prepare so they would be the most time consuming.
We decided to use one contact lense on Caleb as they were causing him major discomfort and the one contact looked just as good so we were satisfied with the decision. Also when we were applying fake blood we only applied small ammoounts just to show who are zombies and the survivors. However we also didnt applpy much make up to other zombies as we didnt have much close up shots and for those shots we had close up shots we had Caleb who we focused the make up on.
Our more controled shots are being filmed another day and this gives us time to possibly use contacts for Michael and Caleb can use his other contact as the guts scene is a close up shot.
