Through its many years of zombie dominance,The Walking Deadhas understood something important about its undead stars.
A zombies skin and gutscan provide useful camouflage.
Even the newer model zombies likeThe Walking Dead: Daryl Dixons acidic variantshave their purpose as well.
These uses are all fine and good but theyre missing a certain whimsical element.
Thus far, nobody has really used zombies for their own amusement.
Things start innocuously enough.
Now we hear music.
You like a show?
the French man says as he guides Daryl and Isabelle to witness the grim tableau hes concocted.
The drummer zombie at the very least does produce some percussion.
That is where well have to respectfully disagree with Mr. Dixon.
The introduction of a zombie orchestra wasnt a stupid detour at all.
This was really fun to imagine, Weil says.
And then we tried to push it a bit further to have a real weird geek zombie show onstage.
I started thinking about this and making a few drawings.
Greg loved them so he did some other drawings, Weil says.
We needed to make this work together.
The universe, the accessories, and the set up was the art department.
But obviously the zombie part and the puppet part was what hes incredibly good at.
It was a collaboration together.
A collaboration together to produce something big, you say?
That doesnt sound entirely unlike a zombie orchestra.
Well it actually sounds better than a zombie orchestra as the undead dont make for the most capable musicians.
