Zombie Acting Techniques

Greg shows his actors several clips from several zombie films, and also suggests that it is not hard to teach somebody to walk like a zombie. I will be using the same idea and will be showing my actors a few films before filming. I will also make sure not to follow typical 'zombie protocol' and try to achieve variety with my actors, being careful not to allow them to go 'over the top'.

Greg Nicotero from the Walking Dead TV series speaks of how he trained his zombies to walk in this interesting article:

This video will be helpful for showing my actors.
Zombie Expert Lorin Eric Salm provides some coaching on how to walk like a zombie:
