“What was most exciting was knowing that we were going to get to visit the wider world,” explains “Stranger Things production designer Chris Trujillo on Season 4’s immense scope. “It was a really nice change.” The latest season goes beyond the familiar locales to explore the deep interiors of a secret lab, a brutalist Russian prison, and a haunted house that exists across worlds. The massive undertaking earned the designer an Emmy nomination for Best Production Design of a Narrative Period or Fantasy Program. Watch our exclusive video interview above.
The scope of Trujillo’s work is perhaps best embodied in the Creel House, home to the new series villain Vecna. “The Creel house existed in a past, pristine state. And then it existed in a dilapidated state in the Right Side Up. Then it also existed in the Upside Down. Then it also had an iteration where it was...

“Season 4 is not nine episodes to us,” explains “Stranger Things” editor Dean Zimmerman of the super-sized entry, “it’s just one big, gigantic, twelve and a half hour movie.” Zimmerman is Emmy nominated for Best Single-Camera Picture Editing alongside Casey Cichocki for the episode “Chapter Four: Dear Billy.” Cichocki concurs with the assessment that the pair focused on the season as a whole, noting “you might be cutting things for four episodes downstream.” But, “Dear Billy” serves as a prime example of the approach this duo used for the entire story, which aimed to balance the epic scope with intimate emotion. Watch our exclusive video interview above.
Zimmerman is sure that his existing shorthand with “Dear Billy” director Shawn Levy contributed to a smooth process for the episode. “We’re basically just one hivemind,” suggests the editor, “We both wear our hearts on our sleeve.” A penchant for leaning into...

“Stranger Things” is one of the most visual effects heavy show on television — the recent season 4 finale featured more VFX shots than the entire third season combined. While some of those VFX shots are obvious — the ground splitting open into lava, a horde of demonic bats attacking the heroes — others are designed to be hidden from the audience.
For example, one of the most memorable scenes of the season featured a return appearance by Dacre Montgomery, whose character Billy died last season, as a vision torturing his stepsister Max (Sadie Sink). However, Montgomery was unable to physically return to shoot the season due to Covid-19; the season shot beginning in 2020, in the middle of the pandemic, and Australia’s strict lockdown rules prevented Montgomery from leaving his home country. In order to circumnavigate the issue, series editor Dean Zimmerman said the team used editing and digital engineering tricks to insert...
