The wipe effects employed in the video really hit home the scope of visual work that goes into every shot of the hit HBO series – from The Great Pyramid and cityscape of Meereen to the Unsullied army to Stannis' attack to the White Walker details and the icy massiveness of the Wall – Rodeo FX clearly earned their Emmy as part of the "Game of Thrones" visual effects team.
Game of Thrones" took home a total of four Creative Arts Emmy awards this year – for "Outstanding Art Direction," "Outstanding Costumes," "Outstanding Prosthetic Makeup," and "Outstanding Special and Visual Effects."
We ride again into Westeros for season 5 in Spring 2015 – fingers crossed these 9 new characters are among the mix!
