00:00Hello fellow outcasts, and welcome back to Nevermore!
00:05What differentiates this season from season one is that it's a bigger scope.
00:09I think this season has some of our best visuals.
00:11We're doing TV on a movie kind of scale.
00:15Here are the ground rules. No eye contact without permission.
00:18Anything reports to me.
00:20Something we found that audiences really wanted to see more of is the school.
00:23So in terms of the set design, we built a lot more of Nevermore,
00:26and we had this enormous courtyard called The Link.
00:29This season, The Link was one of our biggest new sets.
00:32The quad is gone, so we had to have a new space that would serve a lot of different storylines.
00:36The longest build was probably The Link.
00:38We had a crew of over 180 people in construction alone.
00:42There's over 800 people working from all the different departments coming together.
00:46I certainly think our werewolf statue in The Link is number one.
00:49The artisan craftsmanship that went into it is second to none.
00:52Returning Nevermore to its glory days.
00:54We see the Nevermore graveyard, we see the clock tower, the secret passages.
00:58We have a whole world of secret passageways and corridors that we've had to design this year.
01:02We also have the clock tower. It's such an architecturally difficult thing to build.
01:06It's all steel. It's all real. Everything works. The lift works.
01:09All the staircases were custom made. Everything is the real deal, and it looks it when you're in there.
01:14Also, we wanted to bring the family to Nevermore.
01:16Who decorated this place?
01:19A homicidal maniac.
01:21Morticia's cottage is one of our big new sets this year.
01:24All custom made, custom sculpted.
01:26Trying to give the whole place a sort of unusual, eclectic, and kooky feel that is the theme of the
01:30Addams Family.
01:31From Morticia's boudoir, we made wood carvings and we made wallpaper based on the illustrations of the artist Harry Clark
01:38from the original stories of Edgar Allan Poe.
01:41I love what you've done with the place.
01:44Where did you find those?
01:45The attention to detail is just sublime.
01:49The idea of building sets gives the show something that's very tactile and makes it feel very authentic and real.
01:54And also, the visual effects are incredible.
01:56We are more than just the sub of our parts.
02:00Orloff was a pretty big visual effect for us.
02:02We're using a cutting-edge technique called Volume 4D Capture to digitally capture his performance from about 80 cameras, so
02:10we can be a free-floating head in a jar.
02:12In season one, we had this solved thing.
02:14And this season, suddenly, we have all these other body parts.
02:16And each one of those, we have to figure out how it's going to work.
02:19How does a foot sit on the chair?
02:21And how does it emote?
02:22That's been a pretty exciting process.
02:24This season, the costume design, even like the school uniforms, it's just, everything is more detailed and elevated.
02:30The Nevermore uniform we evolved in a sense that we repainted the colors of the stripes to lighten them.
02:36We also made the Nevermore Varsie jacket.
02:40Catch up with you later at the Looping Cages.
02:42Absolutely, Bruno.
02:43There's four houses.
02:44I looked into different artworks for those different characters from Shakespeare, seeing if there was a thread of color.
02:50And then the art department designed the motifs for each one.
02:53A show like this works with scale, so when we get to the gala, which is the last half of
02:58the season, we wanted something completely insane.
03:01Was it worth the wait, my darling?
03:03Bellissimo, cara mia.
03:04You have outdone yourself.
03:06We did manufacture hundreds of costumes for this.
03:09By the time we got to the ball, not only did we have our rental stock, which was pretty massive,
03:14we also had a lot of makes that kind of pushed it into the next level.
03:18I've been to funerals with more life than this gala.
03:21Getting a chance to do those kind of clothes is pretty rare, and it's really great to be able to
03:26have the opportunity and the support from production to be able to achieve that.
03:30Wow! How about that?
03:33Everyone is really committed in making the season as best as they possibly can. We just really wanted to deliver.
03:39I think they've thrown everything and the kitchen sink at it. It is unbelievable, the production values.
03:45This season, we've had the freedom to really do the show we wanted to do, so I think the world
03:49of Nevermore is much expanded, and I think we had a great time doing it.
03:52Oh, bravo! Now that's what I call a thrilling climax.
03:56We went imperfectly before going, and the food bowl challenge?
03:56Yeah, maybe he was not.
03:56You Jewishем back then?
03:56see them from pile five steps in the rescue for the resurrection.
03:56We'll start looking for the Entscheid of the Х-Cou늘 doctor, and Mr. vont.
