Well it all started with me wanting to make a silly zombie spoof - I'm a hug fan of the genre (particularlty George A. Romero's 'Dead' series), so I decided to do this one:
"Only A Northern Zombie" - click to view.
The effect was done with a combination of eyeliner, flour, toothpaste and ketchup, and I decided to give the character my own North Of England accent, as I decided that not only would my character speak, he'd have a typical 'Coronation Street' style accent (and yes folks... I DO talk like that most of the time!)
Anyhow, I'd had some good feedback and a lot of people thought it funny... it was originally going to be a one-off, but me enjoying the attention, I decided to do three more - this time, I named him 'Norman' and I spent a bit more on the make-up budget to include 'lavvy paper' (a.k.a. toilet tissue).
Anyhow, here they all are... hopefully you'll get a laugh out if some of this... if not, just marvel at the accent and try to work out what the hell I'm on about... just click each link to view.
"Seeking Someone Special - Norman's attempt at online dating.
"Zomblog" - fed up with the usual 'blogs' on the internet? Find out what a Norther U.K. Zombie gets up to day to day.
"Zombie Jokes" - Norman attempts to be funny - does he succeed? Find out here!
Neil.
P.S. Making the vids. was easy - washing all the stuff off my face afterwards was the difficult part... and remember folks, there's no CGI involved in any of this - hard to believe eh?
