Entry Description

A classic homage to the horror genre. A story of a girl trying to survive, when everything is being slowly taken away.

Judge 1

Positives: Great job of dramatic lighting on the interior shots. I really like the black & white look and the title sequence. Nice composition and perfect timing when the title appears. Overall really nice composition and editing. The zombie kneecap bite was epic, great use of sound effect.

Improvements: Good job conveying the mood and portraying a zombie film however I got no sense that the film is about a girl trying to survive like it says in the description. Was a little disappointed I couldn't see more of the zombies but thought they looked a little too clean for dead people.

Judge 2

Positives: I loved how we're thrown just into the action. The edit is kept to a quick clip that keeps the viewer engaged. Nice use of typography.

Improvements: I'm not sure if the black and white is used to total effect, which could be fixed in post. A little exposition heavy, maybe let the visual speak for themselves.

Judge 3

Positives: Very well done and artistic, the story was clear, the dialogue was audible. Nice variety of shots and camera angles. Really liked the scene of the zombie biting the knee.

Improvements: If anything I would say more zombies and blood. Great job.
