The Walking Dead "Zombiefied" An interactive look at zombie makeup in the AMC hit show. A Zombie is:a creature that continues to roam and tries to devourall in its path - even though its natural life is over. However, the cast and crew say 'zombie' all the time. Actors who play walkers have to go to zombie school. Walkers in training have to accept the zombie rules: Walkers can't speak. Walkers' primary senses are sound and smell. Walkers have to imagine how they died and came about their wounds. At the beginning of each season, 150 to 200 extras audition for the chance to appear as walkers. The Walkers are evaluated on: Look- are they gaunt and emaciated? While most TV extras earn about $100 per episode, Walkers make between $300-$350. Meet Special effects guru, Greg Nicotero!

How Second Screen Behavior Is Impacting The Entertainment Industry [Future Of Entertainment] Seemingly everywhere we look we encounter products boasting how ‘green’ or ‘sustainable’ they are with respect to reducing energy usage.

While The Hunger Games had a rabid and active fanbase from the books long before that movie came along, Prometheus’ pre-existing fanbase was much smaller and less obvious.
Film geeks and fans of Scott’s 1979 film, Alien (for which Prometheus is a prequel of sorts) form a dedicated core that Ignition was charged with expanding. The L.A. Surprise!
