In an interview with Daily Variety, Detwiler commented on the working environment with the rest of the production team on the show: "What makes us unique is that our visual effects department has gone in-house. On this show we're right down the hall from the director and the writers and can talk to them instantly about anything that's going on. It makes things a lot more collaborative and easier in terms of getting the look that's wanted for the effects."
