      They also made amazing computerized wire rigs for the actors they used in conjunction with motion-controlled cameras. The production of the show was super impressive.

      Also - everyone should read the books. They’re fantastic.

      Ty Frank, one of the authors and the Amos actor Wes Chatham had a really fun podcast (“Ty and That Guy”) that did lots of fun deep dives on genre stuff.

        That was such a nice touch and just cost some red leds. I’m the books they spend a lot of time on the float (to expensive to burn all the time). The way the TV show got around it all was great
