"He's right behind me, is not he?"

Holy double, & nbsp; double work and pain!

After a brief break of less than six months, Sabrina's icy adventures is back on Netflix for its second season. After the events of Season 1, our eponymous hero (played by Kiernan Shipka) is, to paraphrase Lou Reed, wander the wild side. That's right, she gives full power to her powers, explores her dating options, and almost does not care what everyone thinks.

Harvey Kinkle (Ross Lynch), Roz Walker (Jaz Sinclair), Aunt Hilda (Lucy Davis), Aunt Zelda (Miranda Otto), Cousin Ambrose (Chance Perdomo), Ms. Satan (Michelle Gomez), Nicholas Scratch (Gavin Leatherwood), and & nbsp;Father Faustus Blackwood (Richard Coyle).

To celebrate the latest batch of new episodes, we cast a triton eye in the cauldron, drew a pentagram on the floor and summoned the production's chief designer, Lisa Soper, for a fun little discussion about the look and feel of season 2. During our conversation, Soper talked about everything from Looney Tunes to H.P. Lovecraft, so that you can be quiet, the supernatural series is in the hands very, very (dare we say it?) Magical.

Josh Weiss: Tell me a bit about the general production design for the show.

Lisa Soper: With a cartoon sensitivity, all the rules can be discarded. Guided by the twisted nightmares of Jerome Bosch and Regnum Congo, Sabrina's adventures may resemble an animated tarot reading. In order to make Sabrina The most frightening adventure on television though, I did not just want to make the screen look darker and bloodier. We must provide & nbsp; something that has not been seen or felt since Extraterrestrial or L & # 39; Exorcist. & nbsp; It is essential that we do not pay homage to the past, but that we make it a pastiche, but that we take the best of what existed before and update it so that the tears tear, create tensions and turn into something new. .

Josh Weiss:& nbsp; Does the production design for season 2 differ from season 1 significantly? If that is true, what are they?

Lisa Soper: The design from one episode to the next is constantly evolving. We learn something new with each script that detaches a layer of depth that calls for a new perspective or unique approach. This is one of the best things about design Sabrina. We build the myth and a world to tell fantastic stories. I would say that after episode 10, we will definitely go back to the audacity and push the design & nbsp; to an even more pointed style, now that we have a target audience. & Nbsp;

Josh Weiss: According to the trailers posted so far, it seems that Sabrina fully understands her abilities and becomes rather rebellious. How is this reflected in the design of production?

Lisa Soper: I love to have a lot of fun with Sabrina to rebel. I've pushed his surroundings with more sober and less organic lines that also draw attention to where we want to draw attention to the stage. In the old Looney Tunes, there would be literally giant flashing arrows to show the audience where the next beat would come from. With SabrinaI approach it the same way, but my arrows are disguised. & Nbsp;

Josh Weiss:& nbsp; What was the pleasure of designing this season? What was the most difficult?

Lisa Soper: Honestly, the most fun is always the next set because we are constantly pushing the illusion of life for every scary adventure. The last set I did for season 2 was a last-minute addition that we concocted two days before the end. I was at the final party drawing the decor on a napkin with our director, Rob Seidenglance. At first, I thought it would not work, but it was built and beautiful in less than two days. The challenge is also addiction. It's that feeling of getting up in the morning to solve a puzzle or get to work.

Josh Weiss:& nbsp; Are there specific influences on your show design?

Lisa Soper: It starts in the woods. Many centuries ago, when witches were only one with nature and the darkness protected them. It was important for me to start here, where it all began, and to make sure that it is captured right now. You will see nature literally taking over some of the sets. Some of them are in harmony with the house and others lead a continuous battle that represents the oppression of some of the & nbsp; characters. & Nbsp;

What makes a thing credible is to give it a story. So, by creating a story for something that does not exist yet, I did what many writers like Hawthorn, Lovecraft, Barker and many others did. I have & nbsp; watched the story. The house began by watching Salem, Mbadachusetts. I was very attracted to the House of Seven Gables. Once I had initial inspiration, I was able to move to my animation background to create the illusion of life for this home. I constantly referred to stories about the Salem witch trials, the hauntings, why the witches house is a crooked house and everything started coming together … in a perfect spiral. The house itself is designed in the form of a spiral, which is not only a powerful symbol in pagan belief, but also gives the screen something that is not seen normally. & Nbsp; I have an endless link between every room in the house. You are never in the stalemate … Unless you reach the morgue, where if you end up here …. Your journey in life is over.

Josh Weiss: What do you think will please most fans of Season 2?

Lisa Soper: I think they'll love how much Sabrina is ready to go for the ones she likes and how all the characters come together, like Fleetwood Mac's "The Chain." Oh, and the mandrake! I'm sure fans will love the & nbsp; pretty little mandrake. & Nbsp;

Josh Weiss: The series has already been renewed for the third and fourth seasons. Something you can tease about them or where would you like to see them go?

Lisa Soper: There are so many other scary adventures to live. It is obvious that we will have to take our friends from Sabrina to new unknown places and let the adventure ensue. Let me tell you this, I badure you that whatever you are scared of, you are going to be cool in this season. If the biggest trick that the devil has played is to convince everyone that he did not exist, then mine is to convince everyone that he is and & nbsp; that he is under your bed. & nbsp;
