Filmumentaries continue their pre-Emmy conversations with the ILM team of Hal Hickel and Grady Cofer about the third season of The Mandalorian.

For this, the second special Emmy nominees episode I got to speak with friend of the podcast and former guest VFX Animation Supervisor Hal Hickel (check out episode 68 for that conversation) along with Grady Cofer, Production Visual Effects Supervisor.

We chat about their work on the show, the balance of innovation and tradition, the use of certain tools of their trade and the collaborative nature of VFX work.

We caught up with Hal a while back on Making Tracks around the time of Light & Magic to discuss his career with ILM, along with ILM production supervisor Rose Duignan.
