Assignment 22
- 1. Assignment 22: Development of Ideas Gelsomina De Lucia Kelly Morales Chelsea Hopkins Tayla Humphris
- 2. Opening sequences we have watched Opening Sequence Genre Dawn of the Dead Horror Resident Evil Horror/Sci-Fi Se7en Thriller Sweeny Todd Thriller Final destination Horror/Thriller Cabin in the woods Horror/Thriller Insidious Horror
- 3. We were really inspired by Name Opening Sequence What inspired me/ what I liked 1 Gelsomina - The Walking Dead Series - Warm Bodies - World War Z In world war z, the zombies are a new form of zombies as they can run really fast which inspired me. In The Walking Dead Series, I like how the character is unaware of what is happening but survives. In Warm Bodies, I like how they created the zombies to be able to speak. 2 Kelly - Shaun of the dead I was inspired by the use of high key lighting as it challenges the general convention of darkness being situated with horrors 3 Chelsea -Zombie Land -The crazies 4 Tayla -Dawn of the Dead -Resident Evil In Zombieland, the pace is a mixture between fast and slow, The faster paced scenes tend to involve large groups of people. There is a lot of destruction and abandonment and the use of a fairground was very unique. In the crazies the lighting is very dull showing misery, there is a lot of blood and gore show that they are unwell and dangerous to humanity. They are willing to cause harm to loved ones also, which show they are not in control In Dawn of the Dead the use of montage editing, fast pace, extreme microphotography and the extreme use of blood I felt was inspirational and fit the general stereotypes used in Horror’s yet used to the extreme where it was not cliché. In Resident Evil through the girls state in changing the use of flashbacks conveys that the girl has been bitten and she is infected. It is clear from the beginning what they are trying to portray.
- 4. Our first main idea was: • Boy takes Girl to a dead body • His intention was to scare her • He gets killed (in the dark so the girl doesn’t know who killed him)- enigma • She begins to scream • Ends in a aerial shot of the girl in turmoil and is left alone
