So, I've got this scene, where a van's driving over lots of dead folks....like zombies, I mean.
To make this simple, how to I do this? As per usual, I don't wanna run over ACTUAL people, but I want it to look realistic.
So people don't say "Jeez, that's dumb-lookin'". Any help?

i would say have shot with a buncha ppl lying down in front of the van. then cut to a shot of the one wheel running them over(for this shot you can have the same clothes but with bags inside them instead of real people) then show the van speeding away

Or you can show people lying on the ground then a shot of the driver (shake the camera a little) and add some sound in post. You can try all sorts of things and only by expiermentation can you figure out what works best. That's where the creativity in filmmaking is at.
