Savannah Welch Instagram – So about those fight scenes…💥
My bit was truly just a bit. None of it would’ve been possible without the creative genius and physical power house that makes up our stunt team. They navigated this trail blazer with true sensitivity, patience & never once made me feel less-than. Their work on this show is self-evident of how pro they are, but what you guys don’t see is how much joy they get out of doing their job & the way they’re all constantly encouraging and supporting one another. It was a blast to be embraced into that energy for a minute. THANK YOU, guys!! Also, THANK YOU to the props masters for letting me use #batgirl’s escrima sticks (!!!) & geeking out with me…also their willingness to try constructing a rolling/walking contraption 😝 for the flashbacks (we solved that head scratcher with Hannah, the stand in/body double extraordinaire)…and THANK YOU to the wardrobe team for all of their stylie attention to detail, dreaming up the ultimate homage to Babs canon 💥 , a giant warm hug for keeping us toasty between takes. 🥶 Obviously I could list every single crew member because it was a true collaboration all the way around, but ultimately none of it would’ve been put into motion if it hadn’t originated in the minds of our writers. So THANK YOU to Joshua Levy, Prathi Srinivasan and Greg Walker for your vision, believing we could pull off something this bold and for the opportunity to push my edges and leap (ok, limp) outside of my comfort zone. THAANK YOU to our Director, Nick Gomez, for his guidance and leading the charge. And lastly, THANK YOU to @ksuemurray for your sisterhood & being so Badass. Deeply grateful to @dctitans for this vid edit! 🙏🏽
Our stunt team was headed up by our Stunt coordinators, @stovallactiondesign and @brianho720. Helping @brendonhuor fight coordinate and design the scenes was @emmanuelmanzanares. The doubles for the fight were @tressa._.young for me, and @ninjaorf for @ksuemurray. Our stunt riggers were @martinstantoine and @stuntmansteph. Special thanks also goes out to our fight team @_mustafabulut, @dylanrampulla, @thomas_lorber, and Penande Estime for helping to train us when we came in to practice. 💜 | Posted on 16/Sep/2021 02:40:14
