'''Attack of the deadly gust''' is a 2012 British short film written and directed by Mark Tonkin, son of the famous author [[Peter Tonkin]]. The film is a deliberate parody of the B movie genre. It is scheduled for premier at the Royal Victoria Hall in [[Southborough]], England on the 20th March [[2012]]. |

==Plot Summary== |
|||
Barry, an accountant, and Mike, a physisist, battle for survival against the natural wind which has developed a conscienceness and forms tornadoes across the world. |
|||
==Production== |
|||
A script was written as part of Mark Tonkin's creative media project. The idea was devised based on other unsuccessful and critically derided films such as [[Edward Wood]]'s '[[Plan 9 from Outer Space]]' and [[Tommy Wiseau]]'s '[[The Room]]. A £700 [[High Definition]] camera was purchased by the media department for director Mark Tonkin's use. |
|||
Filming commenced on the 16th of January 2012 with a planned filming schedule of 44 days. Shooting in the Cutbush building of [[Bennett Memorial Diocesan School]] commenced with Will Barratt playing a midget, parodying the opening scene of the 2007 film [[Hot Fuzz]]. Effects will be created on [[Adobe]] [[After Effects]] but kept to a minimum and deliberately rendered to look unconvincing to further enhance the B-Movie feel of the film. |
|||
==Marketing== |
|||
Peter Coates devised the film's poster on the [[Adobe]] compter program '''flash'''. The campaign includes a traditonal [[word of mouth]] technique which involves the crew spreading the word about the film, it's venue and release date, thus obtaining an audience. |
