Transcript

00:01Did you hear something?

00:03In the very first episode, Ellie felt tremendous fear

00:06because of a certain kind of infected.

00:13What the fuck is that?

00:14I think it's a smart one.

00:16And here in Seattle, they encounter 11 of them,

00:21which means death.

00:23When we were designing them,

00:25we started with the look from the game

00:27where we see these stalks growing out of them,

00:30and then we try to justify how else can we differentiate them.

00:33And we just said they have, like, certain nervous tics,

00:36and they start, like, ripping away their own face.

00:39The idea really is that they're all self-inflicted wounds on their face.

00:42There'll be a couple of guys who might have green areas

00:44that VFX will then be painting out.

00:47It was always important that these things

00:49never just purely feel like monsters,

00:51that you see the humanity underneath all of them.

00:54And often when we look at these sets

00:57or these designs of our infected,

00:59that's the kind of balance we're trying to strike

01:01between the different elements.

01:03I'm going to lure as many as I can.

01:05You're going to run in there, secure the gate,

01:06secure however you can, and stay in there.

01:08Dina, I can get bit a lot.

01:10You can't. Do as I say.

01:15Whenever I approach an action sequence,

01:17I start by connecting myself with that childish part of myself

01:22that likes to play act.

01:24I really love Steven Williams.

01:26He opens the floor in blocking.

01:28It's just like, go for it.

01:29It's very much, like, led by instinct.

01:32And so I start by imagining what I would do if I were Ellie.

01:37We have an incredible stunt team,

01:41and together we start shaping all the beats

01:44of what that action sequence is going to be like.

01:48And start talking about how to actually photograph those

01:51in a way that's dramatically compelling but also safe.

01:55Three, two, one, action!

01:58For us stunt people, getting hit and getting tackled to the ground

02:03is, like, the least hardest for us to do.

02:05It was mostly about the dance

02:08and making sure everyone was in the right spot.

02:11We came in to help with movements

02:14that couldn't be accomplished by practical stunt effects.

02:18So we come in to tie that in

02:21so the movements of our stalkers are more grounded.

02:24They wanted the infected to be able to tear back the cage.

02:34That was to find a gauge of copper

02:39that would match the actual metal rods

02:42that made up the structure of the fence.

02:44So it looks like one fence.

02:46To make that look seamless, that's pretty cool.

02:50And now we get to find out,

02:52as they're saved, that there's two other people

02:55that have entered Seattle

02:56in order to rescue Ellie and Dina.

02:59And we get to see one of them, which is Jesse,

03:01and he lets us know that he came here with Tommy.

03:04And now these three characters have reunited.

03:08And now they must survive together

03:10if they ever hope to escape this hellhole of a city.

03:22or maybe that's a beaver time.

03:25In that one time, let's see,

03:27this is super-te Farad,

03:29to give me a basic idea.

03:31Maybe in those of you are not alone?

03:40So he's having a perfect perspective.

03:41Maybe his pregunt is sir,

03:42and I have some point who's at the time.

03:44So when did any of you look up and

03:46what happened,

03:47you xem you like,
