Showing weaves will make the show look like Charmed

If the scene is about the channeling, for instance, Nynaeve's first duel with Moghedian, or a teaching scene, or maybe the Bowl of the Winds, I'd maybe switch to a non-real scene, like when Frodo wears the Ring, and then animate the weaves or the metaphysical results, like show the personal connections to the source and a shape trying to cut them off, representing the shield. What I would not do is show the weaves that form things like fireballs or bonds of Air.

The lesson from GoT is as long as you have good source material, you shouldn't rush production - 27/06/2019 12:02:59 PM 1168 Views
