School of the Dead was a grade
11 drama class project by Paul Nguyen. It is the first short
film shot inside C.W. Jefferys by Paul Nguyen and
subsequently paved the way for Zombie Killers the year
after. Many of the locations in School of the Dead would
reappear in Zombie Killers such as the caretaker's lounge
and hallways.
Trivia: School of the Dead was shot on a Hi8 Sony Handycam
and fully edited in-camera. The soundtrack was recorded in
hi-fi stereo by Paul Nguyen and Chris Williams using a
mixing board and microphone. School of the Dead premiered at
C.W. Jefferys on a 12 foot screen using the school's video
projector.
