Zombie Christmas
Merry Christmas everybody! Finally I’m free to blog! Been so busy the past few days I don’t even have time to write, happens every time during this season… I need to buy presents, wrap them up, give them away, invite a few people, go to a few dinner, makeup 27 zombies, and open up my presents! Phew… indeed, this year is jam packed!
The art above is done by me, I got inspired by CheeChingy. She’s a fantastic graphic artist, I only found her online. Hope to learn more about graphics, I’m really bad when come to this side of art…
Oh, here’s one of our Zombies… He’s not fully painted yet though, notice that the gore level isn’t that high yet…
Total cost for 27 zombies for 3 performances = RM158 (makeup and costumes). Yeah, we’re under a tight budget, but I did not compromise on the quality! Each Zombies comes with fully painted bloody scars and cloaks. If you’re wondering what Zombies have to do with Christmas, then I will have to tell you that you’ve missed out on a very VERY special musical sketch.
They’re not really zombies, they’re humans, infected with a disease, that gives them a shorter life span of around 30 years, premature child birth, rotting wounds, boils…etc. So many generations has passed, that they thought they were normal. They were quarantine in an island, where they lived their lives as if nothing is wrong, they thought that everybody else out there has died. This is where the story begins, a young doctor has found a cure, he came to cure them, but for them to believe him, he needs to infect himself with the disease and show them that the cure works. He went there to tell them that there is more to life, that they are meant to live more than just 30 years. They have been blinded by the things they see, he was there to bring them out of their dying world. But of course, they were comfortable in their homes, and most people think that the doctor is mad. So the decision lies there, to follow the doctor or stay where they are.
All in all, I think that this is one of the best sketches that we have done, I really love the songs and the meaning behind the sketch.
