Institution

I was asked to produce a brief for a new film of my creation within a group. This was to be presented on a powerpoint infront of the whole class and had to include a main story, cast, director and distribution company.

My groups idea was a low budget horror film titled Bloody creek. We chose Niel Marshall as our director as he has directed some successful low budget horror films such as dog soldiers and we felt he would be perfect for our film. 

Our storyline was 'A group of boys go on a lads holiday to a cabin on an uninhabited island. They plan on spending a week there and doing a lot of extreme sports. They crash their boat through drunken antics and are stuck on the island, and it will take 2 days until the coastguard can get out to them, this doesn’t bother them until everything goes from bad to worse and they unleash a curse and are attacked by a group of zombies.'

When casting our film we needed to pick low profile British actors and in the end we decided on Danny dier, Noel Clarke, Stephen Graham and Joseph Gilgun as the main group of characters and Helena Bonham Carter andGerard Butler as the head zombies. 
When given feedback by the class it was pointed out that Helena Bonham Carter was a bad choice for an actress in our film as she is used to bigger Hollywood films rather than smaller independent British films.

when choosing a distribution company we decided on Momentum films as it is an independent film company and has distributed low budget horror films similar to ours such as River of darkness  Death cert and The killing room so our film would appeal to them.
