Today, I participated in the filming of a low-budget zombie flick.
My friend offered to bring me along to the set today (he's one of the main actors), and I of course agreed. I got slathered up with make-up, and then, I was just a zombie, wandering outside the house they were shooting in. It was so much fun; even though it was like, 100 degrees and we're working with absolutely no money (instead of low-budget, we all just call it "no-budget"), it was still fun as hell and there were a lot of opportunities to just hose myself down in fake blood for no reason.
Possibly the best parts were the parts filmed in public; the feeling me and my fellow zombies got as we wandered down busy roads and through crowded grocery markets while curious neighbors and bystanders stared in confusion is too good to be put into words. Don't expect a theater release any time soon (when I say we're working with no money, I mean that almost completely literally), but even if it never got anywhere beyond the group of people who made it (the guy in charge does plan to try and market it), just having the experience would be awesome enough.
