Indeed a day of zombie glorification approaches. Hoping to get 20 zombies for this one – keep Gav and his crew on their toes. Also a magnificent head crushing scene to be nailed and some tasty scenes by torchlight. All in all its gonna be a big day!

BBC Radio article on Zombie Undead. Kris and I were interviewed on radio a couple of weeks ago (14/08/09) by Leicester DJ Chris Baxter. Check the article and the interview itself out here. Excellent fun and, we feel, well worth a listen .

From the twisted mind of Kit Cox comes some more zombie images. More will soon be added to the Media section of the Zombie Undead website.

Whoops forgot to post this entry. Day 09 was 17/08/08 but better late than never. Another glorious day of zombies when we shot three separate short scenes.

Firstly was a new section written by Kris for Chris as Phil. Its a little vignette giving hints of a conspiracy and that Phil knows more than he’s letting on.

Secondly was a dialogue free scene for Barry which joins together scenes already shot.

Thirdly was a scene which we may add as a prologue to the opening sequence. After showing the opening sequence to people several commented that it wasn’t clear what we were trying to show so we filmed a very short sequence of the bomber putting a bomb into his backpack then walking out.

Intriguing site i stumbled upon the other day can be found here. A fellow blogger this diaries a bloke who , for 1 year, is watching one zombie movie a day. Now that’s dedication.

All around the world, zombies are gathering – in certain places at certain times. Crawl of the Dead documents all the zombie walks planned in the upcoming months. An email has alerted me to the Blackpool Zombie Walk which is on World Zombie Day – so register and join in!

A nice feature on the site is the Google Earth powered Worldwide Zombie Walk Outlook and Worldwide Zombie Locator.

A printer which prints onto DVD’s is something I’ve been after for a while after an entry Chris Jones’s blog prompted me on the necessity of such an item. First impressions really do count and any DVD of your work sent out needs to look professional. As Chris said at the very least it needs to have contact details.

A trail of the internet later and i found a bargain on ebay. Search for :

Canon Pixma iP4300 Photo Inkjet Printer – BRAND NEW
Seller is Clearance Bargains who are Argos’ returns, old stock etc. Its a great printer and i got mine for £30 plus £5 ish for postage. Prints on to DVD’s and also has built in duplex facility.

Plans are underfoot for the next round of filming. We are approaching the half way mark which is an awesome milestone for all involved. Hopefully these days can be scheduled quickly with the google calendar making this easier. We’re looking at end of September and start of October and the first date requires quite a few zombies …

Well worth a visit is this site – NOTLD Reanimated. “Night of the Living Dead: Reanimated is a mass collaborative re-envisioning in which artists from around the world select scenes from the original 1968 film and recreating them through their own artistic aesthetics. This is opened to all media and processes both still and dynamic. Works will be assembled into a new video track thus giving the film new life through a process called ‘reanimation’. Submissions will be accepted until 9/12/08″.
