DavidFincher tells you everything you'd ever want to know about making LoveDeathandRobots and directing ‘Bad Travelling.’

If you’re a fan of David Fincher and Love, Death + Robots, you’re about to be very happy. Not only is Love, Death + Robots Volume 3 now streaming on Netflix, David Fincher directed one of the episodes, Bad Travelling, and it’s fantastic. Written by Se7en screenwriter Andrew Kevin Walker, it’s about a giant crustacean and a shark-hunting sailing vessel.

DAVID FINCHER: Well, I appreciate that. It's really mostly Tim, I [have] to be honest. But this was fun. I got to at least play another reindeer game this time around.FINCHER: It's amazing. He's [episode director Alberto Mielgo] something else. He's otherworldly, this kid. His episode really blew me away in terms of the story and the animation.

I remember just thinking to myself, you see something like that [and] you just hope that people aren't going to see it on their phone on a bus. You just hope that they're going to have at least a headset on and they're going to watch it at night. It'll be really interesting to see how it plays on a big screen tonight, because it's really assaultive and the audio is very vertical, and the sound pressure of it. It'll be really interesting to see.

I grew up in the 1970s [with] Kai Pindal and the National Film Board of Canada, Spike and Mike's Animation Festival, Fantastic Animation Festival, or even Will Vinton. Whether you saw them on the Academy Awards, or whether you saw them in a revival house before Monty Python and the Holy Grail, or whether you saw them on KQED in San Francisco—you were exposed to this stuff.

How did you decide on the style of animation that you wanted to use for your episode, knowing that there are so many choices out there in terms of the animation. So in that, one of the things that I kept coming back to was the style of the thing. I think we had 300 shots or something like that. We only had a certain amount of shots and we had to portion the shots, so we went and storyboarded the whole thing. As we were going through that process, it started feeling like something that's a little closer to Deadliest Catch.

FINCHER: He did that all the time because he's a very bad den mother. Tim takes on an enormous amount of responsibility. If you want to play, when Tim tells you, "Pencils down," you have to kind of take it at face value. I didn't have to go to any budget meetings on my episode, but I would hear anecdotally. His producer or his agent or whatever comes into the edit room, and he's like, "It has to stop. It simply must stop.” We had a couple of those.
