Crafting ‘Andor’ season 2

February 6, 2026

VFX supervisor Mohen Leo and VFX producer TJ Falls break it down on the befores & afters podcast.

Today on the befores & afters podcast we’re chatting about the visual effects of Andor season 2. Andor has picked up 3 nominations at the 24th VES Awards. You might remember that issue 33 of befores & afters magazine covered season 2 in depth. Well, for that mag, I talked to VFX supervisor Mohen Leo and VFX producer TJ Falls, among other crew members. This is the audio from the conversation with Mohen and TJ, presented for the first time.

We jump into many of the key sequences from season 2, including the opening TIE Avenger escape, bringing K2-SO to life again, and the Ghorman massacre. Mohen and TJ break down the set builds, what was filmed practically, and all the digital VFX work by studios including ILM, Scanline, Hybride, Soho and more.

Listen in, above.
