In Sunday’s episode, Team Deakins has the pleasure of speaking with special effects master, Gerd Nefzer! In this episode, we learn that Gerd had no idea he would be involved in movies and that he started as an armorer and has been working in the business for over 35 years now! Gerd goes into detail about what special effects are as well as what his department is responsible for and it’s a lot!! We discuss how Gerd prefers to get the most he can out of practical special effects and use VFX to enhance it and Gerd’s approach and his team’s execution of the sea wall in Blade Runner- the most difficult scene in Gerd’s life!! We learn a lot in this episode. Tune in! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
