Our film idea has had many influences from other already released films. Our inspiration has come from films and TV series such as the walking dead and films like World War Z and 28 Days Later. The Walking Dead has a genre of post apocalyptic horror drama which is similar to our film because they both have the exact same genre but they are shot differently and the walking dead is a TV series where as ours is a film. World War Z has the genre of apocalyptic horror novel which again is the same genre as our film but it is set during the zombie apocalypse so we can create an idea of how zombies look and act and how civilians react to them which is good for our flashback scene at the beginning. 28 Days Later has the genre of a post apocalyptic horror which is good because we are able to see the effects after a zombie apocalypse which will help with choosing settings and seeing the state they are in which we can get inspiration from for later on in our film.

The characters in The Walking Dead such as Shane who turns into a zombie is good for inspiration to our film because we can watch how Shane's actions look from before he's a zombie and when he's a zombie and we can get a sense of how we want our zombie character to look like and idea of ye different costumes and make up needed to make our zombies look as 'realistic' as possible without looking animated or silly in any way. We can also look at Shane to see how turning into a zombie effects the way they speak and how they move and looking at this to try recreate our own zombies without them looking and sounding too cliche.
