What Outlander REALLY Looks Like Without CGI & VFX | OSSA Movies

What was the Outlander secrets behind filming the bison and locust attacks? What (and who) would look surprisingly different without visual manipulation? And were the maggots (Outlander Season 5) and the snake (Outlander Season 3) real? Come along as we peel back all the Outlander CGI and Outlander VFX layers! (Outlander Netflix)
In Season 3, we followed Jamie and Claire on a dramatic sea voyage as they tried to rescue Young Ian. Have you ever wondered just how these scenes were filmed? In real life, the Outlander Artemis was parked in South Africa at the Outlander Cape Town Film Studios! At the time of filming, the country was experiencing a severe drought, making it pretty ironic that all the ocean scenes were shot right there. (Outlander sea scene) So how did Sam Heughan and Catriona Balfe manage to recreate the appearance of staggering about on the rough, yet non-existent, waves? Watch and learn the secret! (Outlander voyager)
Season 5 tackled the bison attack from Diana Gabaldon’s novel, The Fiery Cross. Behind the scenes, this wasn’t an easy one to film, as the actual bison needed to be green screened into the shot. Of course, the production team had a few cool Outlander visual effects up their sleeves. And the same applies to the scene where Roger and Bree got to battle a plague of locusts at Fraser's Ridge! (Outlander special effects) Listen to what executive producer Matthew B. Roberts has to say.
In a Season 3 Outlander snake scene, who was Balfe’s favorite co-star: the snake, Scar, or Sam? Do you remember Colum MacKenzie from the first season?! Since the character suffered from a syndrome that made his legs curved, the experts had to replace the actor’s legs with digital limbs.

Outlander really deserves an award, this is the only series I watched and finished the whole seasons in just one week

[@jade8568_VR]

Me too!! Ridiculous lol now I'm going crazy waiting any news of Season 6!! Maybe I'll read the books... ugh

[@andy-v]

You gotta pump those numbers up. Those are rookie numbers.

[@dannysmith8549]

And me 3!

[@Lyoko42o]

So was just announced weeks agoo

[@amnasayeedamani]

Lol, me too finished all 5 seasons in a week 😂 and I thought I was the only one crazy 😂

[@cygnus53]

I was so happy to hear the narrator use the correct pronunciations on the actor's names. She even got Diana Gabaldon's name right. Well done.

[@nami141]

It probably means she actually is a fan. So often these youtube channels find some movie, series or anime that has a fan base and get one of their people to talk about it as though they're a fan, even though they haven't actually seen it before. It's really obvious when one of these fake fans narrates as they get pronunciations (and sometimes even basic facts about the show) wrong. I'm glad in this case the narrator is actually a fan.

[@tyfaknee]

I was actually thinking the very opposite. This person is just a “journalist” and isn’t an actual fan of the show. I noticed they didn’t get the pronunciation of ‘Colum’ correct.

[@sharonrichards7656]

The budget alone to make this show must be huge!

[@BethanJ1]

I want them to go back to Scotland soooooo bad 😂😂

[@alfiesgirluk]

Yes as do I, they should have stayed for the clearances

[@PaxDisturbia]

Only if they avoid the fire on Fraser's Ridge, I'm guessing.

[@biettabrewer]

I always wondered how they made Gary’s legs appears as they did. One of many great visual effects.

[@likezmuzik263]

The sets for the French episodes were incredible. A visual feast.

[@Anula.....81]

It was great for the producers of the series to make such visuals that they looked like real ones. It's fun to watch.

My father built the hydraulics for these ships ! Outlander is thee best series ive watched and i cant wait for the new season😍😍😍

[@bobmonson6432]

I was impressed by all you mentioned here. There is so much done behind the scenes that adds to the imagination. Well done.

[@mereiriz]

Wow. I was in awe with this show before and now even more after watching this. Amazing. They deserve all of the awards.

[@pornstarlivesmatter3319]

HURRY HURRY FOR NEXT SEASON! AS A CHRONICLLY ILL PERSON IM ALWAYS AFRAID IM GOING TO DIE BEFORE I SEE THE NEXT SEASON OF A SERIES I LOVE LOL. I JUST FOUND THIS SERIES AND LOVE IT! I BINGED IT ALL IN A LITTLE OVER A WEEK

[@varab6287]

I would miss Clara and Jamie so much if they were left out of any further series. There is so much chemistry between them and their emotional bond is so strong much stronger than any of the other characters in my view.

[@izabellafouche333]

I love this show so i feel great knowing it was shot so close to where i live

[@monicalinville9579]

Droughtlander is really getting me down. I'm actually starting my THIRD reading of the series and I've rewatched the episodes innumerous times. I'm on the waiting lists at Amazon and my library for when Gabaldon's 8th book is released too. Does this make me pathetic? Amazingly I don't dream about Sam Heughan. You'd think I would given the amount of time I spend thinking about him.

[@Anula.....81]

I also like this series and I have watched all the episodes that have come out a few times. I have not read the books, so far I have only watched the series.

[@margietucker1719]

@@Anula.....81 You need to read the books...the story is much more in-depth and detailed in the books. You will love them!

[@margietucker1719]

You sound pretty normal to me, Monica! Just last week I went into my spare room and located all the books of the series. I have them on a shelf in my bedroom now---about to start them all over again :)

[@rraine4195]

Well, I have only read the series once- it only took me 5 months to read all 8 (granted, two of the months I was out of work when lockdown started.) Now I'm listening to the audio series, which Davina Porter is amazing-highly recommend it. And of course I have watched the show countless times. But I may have taken the obsession a bit far because I actually started learning Gaelic (again, when lockdown started) because I resented not understanding those parts! Tha mi ag ionnsachadh Gàidhlig aon bhliadhna agus tha gaol agam air na leabhraichean. Tha Outlander agus Gàidhlig sgoinneil. Slàinte mhath! 🥃

I can't believe the snake and maggots were real. I was disgusted even watching it and said it was editing

[@justsomepersononyoutube9271]

So many secrets

[@sarahstein4191]

Ist,s magic of film 💖♥️

[@PaxDisturbia]

The casting director is an absolute genius. The characters are done to perfection by the actors. I've watched the series three times, but after the first viewing I skipped over the worst of the violence. Some of those scenes were a bit drawn out, in my opinion. Attention to detail and authenticity is absolutely amazing overall, great cinematography, editing, and storytelling. There's a nod to modern day social justice messaging in the writing, but it's not too distracting and it is inevitable in contemporary media. I'm looking forward to Seasons 6 and 7.

Just a small correction, the name of the ship is bruxa, not bruja.

[@sandroribeiro7644]

It's Bruja, but its read bruxa

[@anaisabelsantos4661]

@@sandroribeiro7644 bruja is the spanish word and has a completelly diferent pronounciation, if the ship was portuguese it would be bruxa as the actors so well pronounced. For it to be bruja in portuguese the "j" would be pronounced almost like in english.

[@anaisabelsantos4661]

@@sandroribeiro7644 I was talking about the way it's pronounced in this video, they used the spanish version of the word. As for the way it was written in the 18th century I have no idea if it was with a "j" or an "x", but I doubt it was used to name a ship, no priest would bless a ship named witch... most ships has the name of a saints for divine protection.

Question I hope some answer it: Sassenach told Jamie when he asked her age: she is 27, he said when he is 40 she will be 245. So, How old was Jamie?????.......................Hum , silly question but.........................

[@kkangeroo]

I suppose that makes him 22

[@helenaromu4698]

In the books outlander begins with a 23 years old Jaime

[@Seajay-ey3uh]

Yeh, I figured from that statement he was 22 years old. Since I didn’t read the books, I can only go by that statement.

[@paulinak9987]

In tv show it was meantioned that black jack whipped jamie when he was 18. Later Clair talking with black jack asks if he remember the boy who he whipped 4 Years ago. That made me think Jamie was 22

Snakes and maggots are not a big deal, It's not like acting opposite something that can actually harm you. Now the ants, they would get me.

[@varab6287]

[@varab6287]

Wonderful series. Love the characters in the high production value. There was one part that I found a little confusing. When John Gray comes to visit Jamie and Claire they meet his son in the woods with leeches on his legs but they don't introduce themselves and neither does their son. I wondered why they didn't wonder who he was since they didn't know that John Gray had arrived? Also when Mhurta brings Bonnet to the prison he puts himself in a precarious position because he is a wanted criminal himself. Why didn't he have Fergus to it? I guess it was a setup for the next scenes but I found it a bit illogical.

[@creolelady182]
