I've tended to shy away from adapting Brenner-era episodes. As much as I love them, they're quite challenging, and very time-consuming. The filming process took several days to complete, and I definitely dragged my feet while editing this. The reason why I chose this episode? Simply put, Clay Truck Works released an amazing model series-styled Ryan, and I wanted to use him in a way which seemed appropriate. I opted to use mostly model series locations in place of the CGI ones (with some exceptions like Arlesburgh Harbour because I absolutely adore that location). I also experimented with different ambient lighting techniques that I think turned out pretty well.
As fun as it was to put my own twist on this story, it may be some time before I adapt another CGI-era episode. I have a few in mind that I'd like to tackle, but it'll take a lot of time and patience. With that being said, I hope that you enjoy the finished result.
