  • Building Worlds, Breaking Time: The VFX of Foundation
    In this episode, we dive into the epic scope of Apple TV+’s Foundation with Chris MacLean (Overall Visual Effects Supervisor) and Mike Enriquez (Visual Effects Supervisor). From the grandeur of the Starbridge to the intricate planetary environments, they reveal how the show’s ambitious world-building was achieved under pandemic constraints and relentless deadlines. Chris and Mike share how they collaborated with production designer Rory Cheyne to translate abstract concepts from Isaac Asimov’s legendary sci-fi saga into tangible, cinematic experiences. They discuss the challenges of remote workflows, the evolution of visual effects pipelines, and the emotional weight behind designing scenes that feel both futuristic and mythic.

  • Bones, Wreckage, and Time: Unearthing the Impossible
    In this mind-bending episode, I zoomed with authors M.E. Ellington and Steven Stiefel to explore their provocative story that begins with a routine paleontological dig—and ends with a challenge to everything we think we know about time, science, and human history. When the bones of a juvenile Tyrannosaurus rex are unearthed alongside modern human skeletons and a piece of an aircraft—stripped of all identifying marks—the scientific community is thrown into chaos. Ellington and Stiefel take us behind the scenes of their genre-defying narrative, where paleontologists and crash investigators must confront the limits of their disciplines and the uncomfortable possibility that their academic foundations may be built on sand. As personal agendas clash and professional reputations hang in the balance, the mystery deepens: What really happened more than 65 million years ago?
