Okay, right now I'm just finishing up pre-production before we start filming. I've got actors, a script, SFX, everything ready. It's a zombie movie (oh no, not another amateur zombie film!!), but hopefully the style in which it's done will make it more interesting than some of these other you may see on the internet.

Instead of the entire movie being shot on one good camera so it looks like it's just happening, it's going to actually be a "presentation" by someone from the future, after the zombie apocalypse has been taken control of. It's about a group of people that survived for a certain time by staying on a roof for almost six weeks. The "presentation", or the opening and closing of the movie will be done with a nice camera, rented from a kid at my school. The actual "tape found at Ground Zero" will be shot with like a handycam. Just your average everyday junktastic camcorder.

It's pretty much a freeform movie, and the guys on the roof just funk around, but there will be some serious written-script stuff like when one of the guys falls off the roof and the guys on the roof have to put down a ladder so he can get back up. There'll be a part where a person's ankle will be grapped when hitting the zombies with something from the roof and a guy's gonna come over and chop off the zombie's hand. There'll be some cool stuff in it. I'll post it on YouTube when it's finished, and you guys will the first to know of its existance.

Well, tell me what you think of the movie and if you have any suggestions before I start the production process.

Well sounds like a good story, you didn't really give much detail there so there's not much to comment on. But I would suggest a site like atchive.org to put your film on intead of youtube.

I don't see the big difference, but thanks anyway. I'll post it on atchive.com then.

I didn't give a lot of detail now because it's pre-production. I don't want to say something now and then later, because we all know it happens, gets changed because something doesn't work out right. But for now, what I've got up there is all I know.

you can only put a video under 100mb in youtube, on archive.org you get unlimited space.
