Alex found a great video on Freddie Wongs channle that talks about how to add realistic recoil to fake gun shooting.

Resident Evil Soundtrack

Even though this is early in the research stage, Alex, While doing his ICT he used a soundtrack from resident evil as part of his coursework and reccomended it for part of the short film.

Adobe After Effects - POV Shot

As I am wanting to have a POV shot in our film, I located a video which tells you on how to simulate an scope.



Weapon Props




All of these pictures are the possible weapons that 'The LAW' (Mark) and the 'Hawk' (Stuart) would use, which will be me playing 'The LAW' and Luke playing the 'Hawk', all of these props are actually all owned by Luke. Although the guns look fake we have started to spray paint them black and like the tips orange so people know there fake. but in CGI they will be edited out.
