Zombie Apocalypse 2024

Empathize (1).png

I met with my client, Khris, and started by asking what biome would best suit his chances for survival during the Zombie Apocalypse. His choice was a deciduous forest. We then focused on what he not only needed to survive but to thrive in these difficult conditions. Here is his list of needs:

  • at least 5 stories

  • Multiple flare outs to prevent climbing Zombies

  • In-Earth bunker/ root cellar

  • Greenhouse

  • water filtration

  • generator

  • Open Air Top Floor

    • hot tub​

    • woodstove to heat tub

    • pizza oven

  • Slide from top to bottom​

Empathizing with my Client

I met with my client and used the Zombie Apocalypse Brainstorming document to focus our work and make sure that I was recording their needs related to a zombie proof home.

Creating a Prototype

Before starting with Minecraft I did a pencil drawing of what I hoped my model would look like in Minecraft. I met with my client to show them this prototype and they approved of the drawing with minimal alterations.

Zombie Proof Abode

I developed my final model based on my client's needs. The building starts with 5 empty floors that do not connect to floors 6 through 8. Access to the top floors is through a bubble elevator that goes from floor 1 directly to 6.

Final Video Walkthrough

My final product was this walkthrough that I edited in WeVideo. I did multiple attempts at creating my  video and did not realize success until I storyboarded it before recording. I also found a multitude of zombie sound effects that I added in multiple layers (see below) to add depth to the sound track.
