Coming Up With the Concept
While a Fairfield senior's capstone is typically produced throughout a student's senior year, I have been playing with the concept for my capstone since sophomore year: while constructing the annual "Senior Week DVD," I began to notice the versatility of DVD Studio Pro and how it can be used for so much more than creating a single menu to burn a DVD.
It got me thinking back to one of my favorite books when I was younger, Horse Show Champion. It was a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure book, where every few pages I, as the main character, had to make a choice - do I take some practice jumps, or polish my saddle before my next event? Reminiscing on those style of books, and watching a "Whose Line is it Anyway" clip where Greg Probst played a serial killer maniacally giggling because "the came back in the house," I decided I wanted to create a film when the audience gets to Choose-Their-Own-Adventure.
The zombies were just an added bonus!
