Since we had decided as a group, from both our own ideas and from that of the feedback to do a zombie film, we dicided to make a plan for how we would start the opening. Since a lot of zombie films begin the outbreak through the spread of a ficticious virus, we were thinking along the same lines. The main sections of filming will be done as if the main character is shooting a video diary, where he will be explaining into the camera that he had invented a cure for the virus that had spread but it had not worked, and he would hope that someone would find the video diary if he was killed. These sections will be a mixture of handheld filming and shooting the character filming himself from afar. The other sections of the opening will be 'flashbacks' thats will cut in every so often and give further explanation to the events that led to the zombie outbreak (during these we can also name directors, actors and other people included in the movie). At the end a title frame will appear with the words "6 months later" leaving what would be the rest of the film to continue.
I think by doing it this way we can get a range of different camera shots and there will be a huge variation of lighting and angles, since there will be many completely different scenes mixed in.
