We told you back in January that The Walking Dead was up for a WGA award. Well they won. Not only did they win but they trumped the other nominees (honestly I didn’t know there was a SOA online mini. I think I’m going to have to dig that up to watch today – thanks WGA awards!) Seriously though a major congratulations for the award as the webisodes came out looking amazing and I hope to see them packed in the next Blu-ray release as a solid short.
At Sunday night’s Writer’s Guild of America Awards, John Esposito and Greg Nicotero picked up an award for the first ever Outstanding Achievement in Writing Derivative New Media for their work on The Walking Dead webisodes.
The webisodes were written by John Esposito and directed by Co-Executive Producer and Special FX Makeup Designer Greg Nicotero. Esposito and Nicotero had been up against web series Jack Donaghy: Executive Superhero (tied to NBC’s 30 Rock), Mortal Kombat: The Web Series and a Sons of Anarchy web series (FX).
