Like the Oliver's 7 Year Wait Montage, I really enjoyed bringing this montage to life - and it features some of my favorite lighting in the whole film, too.

I remember writing this scene and wondering how I would execute it. Needless to say, even *I* had to sit back and go "Woah" when it was finished.

This scene was by far and away the hardest scene to do VFX-wise, not the least because of how long these fire FX took to render!! Still worth it, though.

Daisy's yodel war cry had been in the script since the earliest drafts back in 2015, and it was a delight getting to bring such a goofy moment to life.

This was one of the 2 hardest scenes to do VFX-wise, and it was also where I decided to lay out Toby's true identity as explicitly as I could.

This was by far and away my favorite part to film in the movie, and it was my favorite part to write during Oliver's first big flashback scene.

One of my favorite scenes, for how it has the story take a hard left turn, and how well I was able to execute it visually and sound-wise.

I actually almost ended up cutting this scene, but some crew convinced me to keep it, as it served as important foreshadowing for the Tobias Personality.
