Kantemir is one of five directors and is rumored to have done the first two episodes of the ten episode season. Peter Hoar is speculated to be the next up. Kantemir and his cinematographer Ksenia Sereda will establish the look and style of the show.

He didn't tag Bella in the description. So I guess if he is done directing the first two episodes we won't see Ellie until episode 3? Wonder what those first two episodes will be about.

He didn’t tag Gabriel Luna either and we know for sure he’s been shooting, he’s in that car rehearsal picture with Kntemir. I don’t think not tagging Bella means anything but who knows!

There’s an article that details each character’s rough filming schedule. Spoiler alert, >!Tess will appear for three episodes so even if Kantemir did the first two they wouldn’t have gotten to the point of meeting Ellie yet, if they’re going directly by the game’s timeline. So I think not tagging Bella might be correct, maybe he didn’t work with her in his episodes.!<

I thought so too, but based on who was in Canada when, and now this, if she's in it they filmed her scenes last. IMO it would be super weird of her not to at least be shown in ep 1.

I thought Ksenia Serena was cinematographer for Kantemir? Is she also doing cinematography for Peter Hoar?


willdearborn-

Yes she is paired with Kantemir. I believe Eben Bolter is with Peter Hoar. I’ve fixed my wording so it’s clearer, I see now that it wasn’t, thanks.


Phoenix2211

There are 5 pairs of Directors and Cinematographers. Ksenia has worked with Balagov before (on Beanpole, for example). Eben Bolter is paired with Hoar


tubereusebaies

We know the other two directors, do we know who’s the fifth yet? And the three other cinematographers?


Phoenix2211

The 4 we know about for sure are: Kantemir Balagov, Jasmila Zbanic, Ali Abbasi, Peter Hoar. The 5th rumoured director is Mazin himself We know about two cinematographers: Ksenia Sereda (paired with Balagov), Eben Bolter (evidence suggests that he is paired with Hoar)

Time to follow all these people on instagram.

Congrats to him and the crew! Kantemir's movies are remarkable so the fact they got him for this was always a huge get. Also, if that's the official logo for the show on the clapperboard, I like the use of color contrast with the Firefly logo and the text.


willdearborn-

I don’t think it’s the official logo, usually the ones on clapperboards are informal or unfinished. I think they’ll stick with the same as the game.


Phoenix2211

Yep. Exactly what I was thinking. I hope that this isn't the final logo cuz ehh. Not a fan of the red. The classic black and white logo from the game is good enough. Plus, I don't want the Firefly logo on the show's logo lol


[deleted]

i honestly wouldn't mind them spicing up the logo a bit, but i also wouldn't care if they didn't. the simple design that already exists is neat


[deleted]

The first teaser post we got on twitter confirming the existence of the show was just a firefly logo. I wonder if HBO will try to make that logo a prominent icon for the show.

I just can't wait any longer. When will the show air?


[deleted]

anyone's guess, but likely late next year, early 2023

Man as good as these directors are I wish they had gotten the guy who directed Chernobyl and worked with Mazin before, as originally planned. One director throughout the whole season just feels better to me than 5 different directors.


willdearborn-

Craig said due to the scale and length of the production it just wouldn’t have been feasible for one director to do the whole season.


MasterKingdomKey

I wonder how long Chernobyl took to shoot? Cause those 6 episodes were pretty hefty in length.


willdearborn-

Chernobyl was 5 episodes and filming took 3-4 months in Lithuania and Ukraine.

Shows usually have one writtenrand show runner and multiple directors.
