We discuss the working relationship between the VFX and special effects and stunt department, the creative genius that is Joss Whedon, envisioning set pieces and recruiting VFX companies for the series. He shares the pandemic's impact on the VFX business and the challenges of filming during COVID. We discuss filming the now-famous water fight, the challenges of such an ambitious sequence, creating the Primrose character, working on The Nevers with cinematographer Seamus McGarvey, the difficulties involved in designing the Galanthi, advice for VFX artists starting out and much more. Johnny also promises an exciting second half of the season!
