Show Notes
Can you guess how many different Italian villas/churches/horse stables it took to create the convent for Immaculate? The film’s production designer, Adam Reamer, has the answer and he shared it with us. Filming locations, favourite sets, and Italy’s seemingly endless religious prop collection were all discussed in Szilveszter’s interview with Adam (0:52).
However, this is not everything for the episode! To have a whole picture about the visual storytelling details of Immaculate, Áron had the pleasure of welcoming the film’s cinematographer, Elisha Christian, on the show. For a horror film atmosphere is essential, and from Elisha you can learn how the tension escalated through the pacing and the movements of the camera, and lights will be drawn on the moody candlelit scenes as well (35:00).
