I would like to see zombies that behave realistically- either they have a rabies-like disease or they eventually decompose.
How can something that doesn't exist act realistically, exactly?AnOriginalConcept said:
OT: if its decent, I'd like to take a look. I hope its successful.
Yeah zombie animals would be cool. I haven't seen that many series that go beyond maybe a dog or bird.Nivag the Owl said:
Completely depends on what kind of series your going for. funny, scary, depressing, drama?
Really without that information theirs not much I can suggest. If it's meant to be serious, and it's about survivors just don't show zombies to much. The more you see them, the less scary/threatening they get.
Also, if your trying to make it like someone recording people, remember that 1. their is someone holding the camera, so he's part of the story too and 2. people wouldn't care about the camera, they wouldn't all just shut up and stare at it, get people talking in the background even if you can't hear them. Make it appear that things are still going on and you didn't all just stop in a zombie apocalpyse to talk to camera every 20mins.
Aside from that I can't think of much else off the top of my head, good luck though.
My only other advice is get everyone to read and rip apart the script. If you write one draft and proceed to film that it will be shit, get people (and yourself) to refine and graph it until you get the mood, dialogue etc right.

Beat me to it. Interestingly/horrifyingly there are some pretty astonishing/disturbing experiments in using tech to keep a dead thing running. A virus with a tiny, tiny chip was keep functioning for something like 30 days after the organic components "died"... so yeah.SUPA FRANKY said:
There are also some pretty bad parasites and bacteria that can force animals to take actions, even suicidal ones, to allowit to continue it's life cycle. A parasite (something plasmosa, I think) lives in rats but breeds in the intestines of cats. The parasite screws with the rats brain compelling it to find cats and pretty much climb into its mouth.
I want to see an enemy group of survivors, who put helmets on zombies, and then release them on the good guys, so that way they can't be killed far away.
That is very disturbing. Why do I get the feeling that some scientist is already at work?manythings said:
There is ALWAYS someone at work... On the plus side there are scientists who are waiting to invent cures to this kind of messed up shit so if you spot Dr. Kleiner or someone keep him safe if the end of the world happens.SUPA FRANKY said:
Something i'd like to see is that one guy/girl/person who understands whats going on from the beginning and is properly prepared for it. gets tiring seeing a bunch of people staring at a bunch of zombies tearing crap apart and are wondering "Whats going on???!?!?".
