Special special effects

[thistlechaser]

In this season of Game of Thrones, there was a big battle. Supposedly one of the biggest ever made for television. I hadn't realized how much of it was done with special effects (basically, almost all of it).

I'd say that even if you haven't seen the season yet, this video is only minorly spoilery. You should probably skip it if you want to avoid all spoilers, but be sure to bookmark it to watch later, because it's really cool to see how they did it all.

Isn't it? even on repeat viewings, I'm still amazed by it. The horses alone are incredible! I loved the shots of the scenes where they left the horses as bones or muscles.

Each season of GoT they release a clip like this, showing us how the special effects are done. I love it.
