Richard Van Den Bergh stood in the dark, a light on his face, rain or snow is falling all around. — Richard with some atmospheric effects

For this episode, the first of July 2023, I spoke with Special Effects Supervisor Richard Van Den Bergh.

I met Richard when he was one of the panellists on the Andor SFX/VFX panel at Star Wars Celebration in May this year. I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this, but er… I hosted it. Ha!

Richard is clearly an expert of his craft, whether it’s model making, making atmospherics or supervising. He’s had some much experience from starting in the industry on Ridley Scott’s Legend, to his most recent work on Andor for which he was nominated for a Bafta.

I hope you enjoy our conversations.
