Thread of my favorite takeaways from Jerry Wanek& #39;s Zoom Q&A!
• He could not have been clearer as to the fact that every detail is meant & done meticulously (duh). Stuff isn& #39;t accidental. He talked about how MANY people are involved–experts in various crafts–a LOT.

• Part of that: talking about–with examples–how sets are created so that a director can have a 360º opportunity for a shot. It& #39;s a complete environment so things can be shot from any angle & it will work.
• He liked "putting things in the set that the real fans can pick up."

• ALL the details of a room need to be cohesive. "...I don’t care what you’re doing, but it’s gotta make sense in the context of whatever set you’re on. You can’t just throw a spaceship in the middle of a barn & be like, wow did you see the spaceship? It doesn’t work that way.”
• Original 15x20 ending details, featuring dead Kansas in Harvelle& #39;s, & notably: Sam & Dean were not supposed to meet on the bridge. Sam was going to go into the bar & meet Dean in there. "Everybody that died basically was in Heaven," with Dean in the Roadhouse when Sam arrived.
• About the MoL bunker: "That was Jensen& #39;s baby. Jensen loved that set" & Jensen had said "we finally found a home." There were talks about having Lucifer or someone else destroy the bunker at various times, & Jensen was adamantly against it. He& #39;d say, "Nope. Find another way."
• Talking about the book: "Every one of those images on the front cover is a separate book." Jerry would make these after every season but wasn& #39;t allowed to sell them. So the cover of this one depicts the covers of previous ones.
(This means s15& #39;s cover was Swayze& #39;s. I& #39;m feral.)

• He talked a lot about different motel rooms, & how he insisted they not all be the same. While you wanted to get a sense that they& #39;re all motels across the country / Americana vibes, they had touches of various cities/locations. LOTS of wallpaper & art choices to convey that.
• They typically had about 8-10, sometimes 12 days between getting a script & having to have a set ready.
• They would scour the Internet & thrift stores to look for items to use across the board, especially for the sake of needing variety (like for LAMPS. Lmao)

Oh: also, his straw matched his shirt. He made a point of making sure everyone knew that.
That& #39;s all I& #39;ve got from notes / off the top of my memory, but the recording will be posted online by different individuals. LOVE THAT DUDE. If I remember other details I& #39;ll add them here.

Predictably, just remembered something else:
• Someone wanted the bunker pieces/set, in order to turn it into a museum, and “the network” said no

Oh okay so it& #39;s "fuck the museum" and ALSO "fuck the network for not saving the bunker somehow anyway."
