I think Gina is too old too, but she wouldn't be a bad choice. How about Kandyse McClure?

Kandyse is too slight imo .

That said - any eyetime I can get with her is a bonus ...

OK, can I just say that the zombie getting shot by Shane when they leave the CDC was awesome, where she fell to her knees and then leaned back and died?

No. You can't.  :P

It was awesome and I also think she was a producer's daughter or something ...

The purist in me winces when they use CGI to do the blood and brain splatter though.

While I agree to a point , I think it's very well done compared to other shows ( see Spartacus for example )

Digital effects have replaced the artwork of people like Tom Savini. That's life. TWD does what they do very well, but I'm a crotchety old guy who wants the CGI to get the hell off my lawn. :laugh:

I agree that it look hokey sometimes, but the cost of doing it CGI is so much less. I'd estimate it would take a pro 15 minutes to make that effect in After Effects and they probably got the effect from a place like this http://www.videocopilot.net/ - Doing it in camera, with practical effects, would take much more time and manpower.

That being said, with the show being so popular, maybe they will have a bigger budget per/ep next season and will be able to use more in camera techniques or higher quality digi-effects.
And I'm thinking you weren't burdened with an overabundance of schooling.

BTW, this is a very cool video on doing that type of effect.
