Ideas

I have been thinking of overall Ideas for my short film project. This has significantly developed over time. My initial idea started with a sniper action thriller. This would have consisted of a sniper and a spotter shooting a terrorist which executes a hostage. The sniper after this point would find himself having to kill both the terrorist and hostage again as they have turned into zombies.

From this initial Idea I went into the logistics of creating the short film and the location. This quickly became apparent that it would not be possible to get a realistic footage of this happening at location, which is in a desert. In an attempt of making this work I looked into creating the same idea just on a beach with Somali pirates as the kidnappers.

from this I evolved the kidnapper to be a female, which ultimately resulted in my final decision of having a husband kill his wife due to her illness of turning into a zombie. Below is a video trailer which inspired me to initially think of pirates.
