About this episode
This week we return to the stunning visual world of “Severance,” the critically acclaimed Apple TV+ series from creator Dan Erickson and director Ben Stiller. Cinematographer and fellow director Jessica Lee Gagné joins us to discuss her work on the show’s second season, including how she crafted the eerie, sterile look of Lumon Industries and expanded the visual palette in new, unexpected ways. Jessica discusses her collaborative relationship with the creative team, the emotional and psychological subtext behind the framing, and how film was used to deepen the surreal, dreamlike atmosphere of the important flashbacks in episode 7, which she directed. “Life never looks more real and emotional than it does on film. Like it just has that texture... and I’m like, well, I feel that that makes so much sense with this world.” —Jessica Lee Gagné, Director of Photographer and Director, “Severance” Be sure to check out “Severance,” now streaming on AppleTV+, in Dolby Vision® and Dolby Atmos® .
