'I am Legend'
'I am Legend' is a film about a man living in an abandoned city because of a zombie apocalypse.
When watching this film we noticed how similar in some ways it is to our opening film sequence. At the very start of 'I am Legend' we notice the camera angles are very wide to show the grand scale of the city and how empty the streets of New York are because of the zombie Apocalypse. They've also done various birds eye views of the empty city. Noticeably they've put the titles on top of buildings and on streets to make it look like its included in the surroundings.

'28 Days Later'
28 days later is a film about a man that was in a comma and he wakes up to find it is the end of the world and everyone has turned into zombies.
When watching the trailer we saw that the man was all alone in London and it was what used to be a crowded street. This is the look and feeling we want to put across in our film. I really liked how that the phones were swinging from their cord as it shows that there is no one around to help in person or over the phone. This is the similarity between the two films. I really like the costumes that they have used as they fit the genre well. As he wakes up in hospital he leaves with only his hospital gown. We would like to recreate the scale that they have done in this film but we realise that it will be extremely hard. We did not want our film to be in the dark as it would be to cliché. We really like how fear is created even though the lighting does not fit in with the feelings. This is another reason why this film inspired us to film one like it. There are very little props in the trailer and we think that we would change that. We will show televisions and mobile phones to show the time that the film is set in. We have decided to do this so the film will seem more realistic to a young teenage girl of the present day.
