Zombie Horror Bus Short Film

Prompt

Create a 30-second, 16:9 ultra-realistic live-action zombie-horror short film using the provided storyboard as the visual guide. Maintain the exact same woman, face, hairstyle, burgundy oversized hoodie, black cargo pants, white sneakers, black crossbody bag, night bus interior, rainy-night atmosphere, and character continuity throughout. STORY: A young woman sleeps on an overnight bus during a rainy night. Her fingers develop subtle black branching patterns, her eyes turn unnaturally pale, and she infects a sleeping passenger by exhaling dark mist into his face. The infection spreads rapidly, and both infected passengers begin attacking the sleeping passengers. Chaos erupts as everyone scrambles toward the front. A bus attendant ignites a bright red-orange emergency flare, temporarily stopping the infected. Survivors force open the emergency partition, escape behind it, and slam the door shut. Pale faces appear behind the small glass window, silently staring. The pounding suddenly stops. The attendant looks toward the rear window and sees a second bus following them through the storm, its dark windows filled with motionless pale faces. In the final exterior wide shot, the infected bus speeds through the rain as its interior lights turn off one by one. The last window goes completely dark. CUT TO BLACK. STYLE: Grounded, cinematic, physically believable horror. Natural skin texture, realistic anatomy, authentic bus movement, rain reflections, subtle handheld camera during panic, controlled camera during suspense, and minimal atmospheric music. AUDIO: Engine rumble, rain, tire noise, breathing, footsteps, whispers, screams, luggage impacts, metal door impacts, and flare crackling. Build tension through sound design and silence. NEGATIVE: No cartoon aesthetics, exaggerated zombie makeup, gore, blood splatter, supernatural effects, teleportation, duplicated characters, distorted faces or hands, subtitles, captions, translations, logos, watermarks, or on-screen text.
