Schedule, pitch & Synopsis

Schedule for the Film

We will be filming in Rosie's house. We plan to shoot on Sunday14th December. We decied to spend only 1 day filming because we think that 1 day would be to finish the film.

The Pitch

We did our pitch on the Friday the 5th December. We were pitching to Miss Kate. The pitch went well eventhough we were missing a team member. The teachers liked our idea but they said that the ending needs to be improved. The teachers seemed to be impressed with the whole idea except the ending and we were given the camera and the equipment. We are going to pick our equiptment next friday on the 12th December.

Synopsis

Imogen lives with her flatmate Sara and life is going well, the girls are enjoying their wild party like lifestyle and are enjoying the freedom. One morning after a serious house party, Imogen carries out her usual routine, a cup of tea and a fag whilst the radio buzzes in the background, but being hungover, Imogen takes no notice of the crucial report of an outbreak of infectious psychotic cannibals. She continues upstairs with Sara's tea but after opening the door, finds herself face to face with a blood thirsty psychopath. She manages to escape, and trying to make sense of events, panicking, she turns on the T.V. This explains the infection is a newly discovered STI that is carried by males, but affects women and is spreading rapidly through the U.K. Then she discovers the disease originated in the area where her parents live in Reading. So, driven by adrenalin she decides to find and save them despite her rebellious history and previous detachment from them. The report also tells of a safe camp which inhabits no infected people, where she plans to take asylum after being reunited with her family.


She sets off to find her family but before she makes it past the end of her road, she is ambushed by two survivors being chased by the infected. She manages to pick them up, putting aside their history of feuds. On the way to Reading, they stop off at a service station to pick up supplies and weapons where again she is confronted with the infectious cannibals. Together they save another two people from death, as the cannibals are stricken in the head and killed. While in the car they all come to a realisation that they are more similar then they thought, and become almost friends putting their differences aside. When Imogen arrives to the family home, she can hear screaming from outside. When she gets in she finds her father and brother infected trying to attack her mother and younger sister, when saving them she receives a bite which leaves her in a fatal condition. The survivors are now left in a near death situation. They take Imogen with them in hope to find a vaccine and cure her before the infection consumes her. They finally arrive at the camp and a vaccine is given to Imogen. They're safe for now, but the outside world is still destroyed.
