I just went and checked out that "official" site and found this.SacValleyDweller wrote:OK, I was going off of my understanding of the production schedule of Heroes, which is VFX heavy as well and I think has a 2 week turnaround time for eps. They also started in May.Shapeshifter wrote:Actually, that's not the case, particularly with regard to the effects. These are effect-heavy shows and I know from talking to one of the show's producers that they often finish effects just days before the air date. That's one of the reasons why no advance copies of episodes are sent out--they're generally not done until the last minute.SacValleyDweller wrote:
With regards to this, I wouldn't know anything about the snowglobes and the visualizations, but they haven't "listened" yet. Production started when, May or June? takes about two weeks to make an Ep start to finish? I'm pretty sure that this Ep has been sitting on the shelf for about 3-4 months. If they're listening to Fan feedback, (the stuff at the official board likely has more weight), it'll probably have more impact on about Ep 14, give or take a few.
As far as shooting schedule; they are about 1-2 months ahead there. It's an 8-day shoot, but post production, as I said, can take them all the way to air date. Also, they have been doing re-shoots on earlier episodes when they see that the tone of an earlier episode doesn't match where they want the show to go. I guess what I'm saying is that comments about effects, etc. could find their way into actual shows sooner than you might think.
and this further persuades me that Im not as right as I thought I wasneps wrote:Just to echo Shapeshifters point - some of the VFX guys have commented on this very board that the online preview of the first episode on Sept 17th was not complete effects wise and they made changes from that online preview to the broadcast airing on Sep 24th.
So these guys really arent getting a break VFX wise, and any constructive comments you have - they are listening and might be able see on air sooner than you think...
Feedback for the VFX dudes and gals: they cant do wrong by me.
Lol.
