A breakdown of the character visual effects used in the final episodes of Game of Thrones Season 4

Wired has a great new look at some of the character visual effects in the final two episodes of Game of Thrones Season 4.

The video begins with a breakdown of Daenerys’ dragons from the finale, including a behind the scenes look at the head molds that Emilia had to act with. It also includes a closer look at the wight fight sequence and their use of green suited stunt men. Moving onto The Wall, we see the many steps needed to properly scale a giant with some more behind the scenes footage, and how they dispatched the climbing Wildlings with an animated scythe.

FX Guide has a detailed blog on everything covered in the video, with some additional clips and interviews with visual effects supervisor Joe Bauer and visual effects producer Steve Kullback.
