Welcome to this special episode of the Filmumentaries Podcast. Episode 82 in fact. Today is a small diversion from the usual. Rather than film history, I have three guests who are very much part of the film now, or TV now. These three gentlemen are at the forefront of VFX on Disney+’s Emmy award nominated show, Andor. Genuinely one of my favourite shows for a long time. So for this month, August 2023, there will be three episodes, all conversations with ILM VFX and Skywalker sound artists and technicians in celebration of their Emmy nominations. Now if you are a regular listener to this podcast you’ll know that I hosted a panel at Star Wars celebration here in London back in May - I mention it to literally anyone that’ll listen. HAHA. On that panel were VFX experts Mohen Leo, TJ Falls and Scott Pritchard as well as special effects supervisor Richard Van Den Bergh. Now due to a complication backstage the panel was not recorded save for a few snippets that the ILM team shot. So I dedicated a whole episode to Richard Van Den Bergh about his career in special effects. That was episode 80 . And while not an episode specifically about Andor, we did talk about the show a little. (do check it out) Then very recently ILM got in touch and asked if I’d like to interview the three VFX guys on the podcast. They along with Richard have been nominated in the category of Outstanding Special Visual Effects In A Season Or A Movie. I immediately said yes and within 24 hours I was chatting with these wonderful artists again. So here’s my conversation with Mohen Leo - Production VFX Supervisor, TJ Falls, VFX Producer and Scott Pritchard, ILM VFX supervisor… Links Return of the Jedi Timeline Book - Register your interest!
