Sunday: Shoot 3
Meet the Meat!
We got started early and had three zombies to make-up. It was audio hell. I have to say, shooting on location is less desirable than shooting on a nice static set. We had some gelatine effects and the mix had to be kept hot. When we went to the set, up a massive hill and into the woods, I thought a camping stove might not be needed.
It was! The gel effects started coming loose due to all the physical activity of one zombie and the other two talking while waiting for their scenes. (Zombies don’t talk! I kept tellin’ them). Well it all worked out after I brought the warming pot up.
We even got to splatter Zombie 3 with our gore cannon, we have yet to give an official name to. (My vote is “Professor Blast-O”) and I was very happy with the “bloody viscera” for head/scalp-wounding.
More to come next weekend.
