Style idea


Some ideas for how to style the zombies from my friend Gill:
ok i have an idea for how to style the zombies. it's a kind of ironic Twighlight parody. what about teenager-cheerleader zombies?  Like at a cheerleading competiton.  the cheerleading teams are practising their routine on the poolside and they have their identical outfits. but just before the main cheerleading competition, all the girls customise their outfit to make themselves stand out more. so they will take their skirt off and dance in their swimsuit and off the shoulder T-shirt. or take the T-shirt off and dance in swimsuit and tiny skirt. or they will wear same-colour leggings. or the same colour handprint on one cheek etc. it looks kind of cool but also quite sinister cause there is such a air of palpable competition between them.
The juxtaposition of once-sickeningly healthy, middle-class and good-looking teenagers lurching thru HK is quite cool i think, particularly post-Twighlight. i'm thinking elements of Nirvana the Smells Like Teen Spirit video too.

What do you think?  Would you like to see teenage cheer-leading  zombies?  What kind of styles have you seen that you like?  What styles would you like to see?

Not sure where to leave this comment... but for your interest.... and inspiration... a zombie movie was made in HK a few years ago. Take a look at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTaZ8pdan7U&feature=player_embedded
There's also Part 2.
