Episode 2: Spectacle and Visual Effects in Those About To Die

  • Summary

  • Anyone familiar with visual effects in film and TV knows that most everything is added in post production, after filming the series with actors has wrapped. But what happens when you flip that on its head, and all the crowd scenes, sprawling backdrops and horse races need to be complete before filming can even start? On Episode Two of Rise or Die, host Dana Schwartz (Noble Blood) explores the world of effects and virtual production that created some of the stunning stunts and visually beautiful moments in Those About To Die. She sat down with visual effects supervisor and action unit director Pete Travers to learn what went into creating some of the spectacular special effects throughout the series, and discuss a new technology the team used to film called an LED stage. This episode also features interviews with director and executive producer Roland Emmerich, actors Moe Hashim and Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson, and director Marco Kreuspaintner. Check out Those About To Die after the episode, streaming only on Peacock.
