Thriller Update - Hurtwood

Below is a short synopsis and overview of how our Thriller idea has progressed:

There has been an outbreak of some kind of flu or virus that has infected our area/country. As a result humans have become majorly ill and in most cases dying. However, in our opening scene it is clear that there has been a survivor or a living. She has discovered that she is immune to this epidemic and had to cope and survive with this change.
Throughout the sequence us the viewer are shown the remains of the environment that has been affected by this issue. At the moment we have 7 definite locations to shoot in, these are all in shooting distance:

1. Hurtwood Main House
2. Theatre
3. Tennis Courts
4. Studio
5. Canteen
6. Canteen Bathrooms
7. Media block classrooms
