28 Days Later fan film: Help needed...

[Cykotic]

So, Undead and Buried is back on hiatus (for personal reasons) and in the meantime, I finished a script for a 28 Days Later fan film. Now, what I do before I begin filming or planning out shots is to design the poster. That part is done, but I'm having a problem thinking of a tagline. This is where you lot come in... I know that the tagline for 28 Weeks Later is this: "Eradication, Sterilization, Re-Population, Re-Infection" and that the Tagline for 28 Days Later is this: "Day 1: Exposure - Day 3: Infection - Day 8: Epidemic - Day 15: Evacuation - Day 20: Devastation" so, what can you guys recommend?

Why a Fan Film ? Why not just make a 'Zombie Film' ? At least this way you can have rights and maybe even sell some DVD's ? Fan Films What a waste of time

Yep... thanks for that. All I wanted to do was pay homage to the films as a fan of them. Nice to know that already, I have some support...

this thread passed me by like a freakin' ninja , i say go for it, you can have some fun, work on your filmmaking techniques and all that and the fact youve got some basis to go on you can spend less time on script writing and just get straight to filming. as for the multineers post i could post many rolleyes smileys as a retort to his "witty" reparte', becuase if you know anything about the process youll know that fan films and the like are a very important part of a filmmakers career as it begins. by imitating, homageing and basically noticing certain filmmaking techniques you can incorporate specific techniques into your own particular filmmaking style to shape it as it changes and grows. if people just post to bitch whats the point in posting to begin with?, that kinda stuff pisses me off. to put it simply if you love filmmaking and are doing this for yourself and your own gratification and noone elses who cares what negative things are gonna be said. go nuts and have fun basically my advice is watch the movie again for one, listen to the soundtrack (limewire ) and then think "now what would i do if that was happening ,were could i go" then using the knowledge of your area envision the places you know in that situation and write your fan script on that ,get some friends together and have fun.

give us a title, we need somthing to work with

[Cykotic]

ok... titles... 28 Days Later: New Day Dawning 28 days later: Blood Red Summer 28 Days Later: Aftermath 28 days later: Infection Those are just a few titles that I've come up with so far. I've tried coming up with some taglines, but all I have are the following: "It's in the blood..." "And now, kings, understand: be instructed, you who have judged the Earth" "Habeas Corpus" "mindful of what has been done, aware of what will be"

LOL Coma, classic mate! Hey Cyk, have you thought about all the words that have 'rage' in - like outrage etc. There's loads of 'em, maybe you could work one into the title?
