Zombie Academy

My daughter, Maya, recently had a school project that involved coming up with a story board for a short film. It was supposed to be something that all the students in her class could be in.

After a little back and forth, we came up with a zombie story. Maya put her artistic skills to work, and before long she had what I think is a tight little film sketched out.

Now, the idea was that all the students would show their story boards, and then they'd vote on the one they wanted to actually film. Problem is that Maya finished hers on time. Others took a few extra weeks. And then today, when it was time to show the story boards, Maya couldn't find hers.

Typical.

She had to describe it instead. Needless to say, that put her project at a disadvantage. A different one got chosen for filming.

Frustrated and yet proud parent that I am, I'd like to offer her story here, for your consideration. It's called Zomberfeldy Academy.

Take a look, and let me know what you think!

First Day At School
Strangely Empty Hallways
Mr. Grave's Classroom
Her first view of her Classmates
When they turn around...
Fear!
She bolts out of there.
Heads for the loo.
Contemplates her options.
Gets light bulb.
Film and music montage.
Her triumphant return to the classroom.

Makes me wonder why she has so much green makeup though :)

That's a reasonable question...
