- 1. ‘End Is Here’ Script by Phoenix Smith and Aaron Newbigging Location 1: Landscape Zombie# 1 walks through an empty landscape slowly. He wears a hoodie, hood up so we can’t see his face. He’s walking slowly, shuffling along, but we can’t yet see that he’s a Zombie. Location 2: Secure facility gate …He comes across a secure facility, surrounded by a metal mesh fence, “Danger” signs plastered over it. He stops and looks in, before carrying on his way. Location 3: Abandoned Area We move across an assortment of abandoned objects, books and toys and clothes, ending on Zombie #2 crouching on the ground. Like the first Zombie we can’t see his face. He’s staring down at his shoes, holding the laces in his hand. He has no idea what to do with them. He tries to sort of mash them together, no luck. Zombie #1 is still walking sort of limping, a shot is seen of a small amount of blood running down his hand. In the background we can now see huge chimneys belching toxic fumes into the air and toxic warning signs driven into the ground; clues in the build-up to the Zombie reveal. Zombie #1 stops walking, noticing a guitar on the ground, the camera is positioned in a way so the guitar is in focus in the foreground and Zombie #1’s face is out of focus in the background, but it is possible to see that his face is pale and his eyes are dark. Zombie #2 hears Zombie #1 walking towards the guitar in the distance, he lets go of his shoe laces and gets up looking around and spots an abandoned guitar in the distance. The two zombies both reach for the guitar. They look up and see each other, and reveal their faces to the camera. Here we see they’re Zombies. They look down to see they both have their hands on the guitar; it’s a fight. Here the video speeds up, quickly intercutting between these scenes; - Location 1: Abandoned Area The Zombies fight over the abandoned items, fighting/playing. Zombie #1 steals the others arm and runs off with it, Zombie #2 looks down at where his arm used to be and looks confused and looks up at the other zombie with disgust. The Zombies find tennis rackets and attempt a friendly game of tennis using the detached arm as a ball, but end up just hitting each other. - Location 2: Secure facility gate They return to the facility gate and start beating on it in time to the beat of the song. They’re having fun whilst doing it, not really trying to get in, just bashing on the gate for laughs.
- 2. - Location 3: Landscape #2 The two Zombies preform a mini concert for the old teddy, bashing at their instruments and not really playing at all, Zombie #2 is playing the guitar well trying to, and Zombie #1 is bashing ta drum in time with the song. As they build to a big finish the guitar wielding Zombie pulls up the instrument, ready to smash it down. - Location 4: Empty Street The video ends on an empty town street. The two Zombies walk down the street and off into the distance. In the background a nuclear bomb explodes, fading the screen out to white. End
