E3 - The First Christmas Episode Faking It: An SFX Podcast
-
- TV & Film
Christmas is problematic. It brings with it a sackful of emotions and expectations for us to either sift through, or ignore. And for a short time, it tries to cover our pain, disappointment, and even our sins with a blanket of pristine (and often fake) snow.
That's why, for this episode, I decided to cover films that cater to those of us who prefer to dissent from this cheerful facade...and get down to the sharp, brass tacks hidden mischievously beneath it.
So let's snuggle up together and discuss something fake that we can really get behind: special effects, and the stories they help us tell.
