This is a long-overdue behind the scenes post, our last before the Outlander starts airing episodes again.
As always, here are the behind the scenes photos share on Outlander on Starz’s Instagram account:
Here’s a wee bit of #OutlanderSeries insight: It takes 2 hours and 30 minutes to create Jamie’s back scars, using two large prosthetic pieces and a few smaller ones. #STARZ #BehindTheScenes #BTS A photo posted by Outlander (@outlander_starz) on
Gather around and behold the first look #BehindTheScenes of #OutlanderSeries episode 109. #STARZ #BTS A photo posted by Outlander (@outlander_starz) on

Along with the image used on the Instagram account, Outlander on Starz’s Twitter account also tweeted this photo of how the first poster/key art was made. The second set of posters/key art were shot in the same spot. 
MoviStar (Spain’s Outlander channel) shared some BTS photos. Some have been seen through Starz’s Instagram account, but Instagram limits how much of a photo you can see. These are more expanded photos. 
Amazon Prime UK was kind enough to share a couple of BTS photos from Episode 109, “The Reckoning.” 
Onto the Twitter portion of the BTS post (which will probably not be in chronological order, this is what happens when you wait too long to do one!):

@Writer_DG “And Young Willie, the most handsome, witty and charming of all the Highlanders, saved the day once again.” is that the passage? — Finn den Hertog (@FinndH) March 12, 2015

.@effie10 @BuchholzDeanna ALL of our writers are amazing. And they all contribute to every episode. So there’s a little part of them in each
— Maril Davis (@TallShipProds) March 15, 2015
.@effie10 they usually all have favorites so it’s not hard to assign. Sometimes more than one writer wants the same Ep, like Ep. 7 -S1 — Maril Davis (@TallShipProds) March 15, 2015
.@Exit10girl every writer covers one “block” in which we film 2 eps. Typically, a writer covers a block that includes an episode they wrote
— Maril Davis (@TallShipProds) March 15, 2015
@marinemom2078 I sit in on the writers room. For the most part, everyone contributes (in some way) to all the scripts.

For those asking me to confirm casting rumors, don’t believe what u hear on the Web. Unless u hear from official source it’s prob not true — Maril Davis (@TallShipProds) March 6, 2015
.@claremfoley @marierfraley @karenh3a @Writer_DG Maybe we stray from the book. Who knows? Guess you’ll have to wait and see! #muwahahahaha
— Maril Davis (@TallShipProds) March 5, 2015
.@sueconnollyjack it’s much harder! More difficult to adapt I think. And we can’t re-use costumes or sets. Reset for everyone. — Maril Davis (@TallShipProds) March 5, 2015
.@effie10 Cant talk spoilers, but u can’t shy away from uncomfortable parts of the book. If u whitewash history, how will we learn from it?
— Maril Davis (@TallShipProds) March 5, 2015
.@Sev_Peyrichou @Outlander_Starz yes, pretty much. A chance for us to screen the episode and give last minute sound/vfx/color notes — Maril Davis (@TallShipProds) March 2, 2015
At the last #Outlander playback of S1 So proud of this season. Can’t wait for everyone to see it. @Outlander_Starz #ep116

.@ritagwood @sueconnollyjack I feel confident too. We have an amazing group of writers!!!! — Maril Davis (@TallShipProds) March 5, 2015
@maquis15 @sueconnollyjack not necessarily. Dragonfly is the shortest book I think!

@craiclander we write up character descriptions and give them to our casting director. She rounds up potential actors & puts them on tape
— Maril Davis (@TallShipProds) February 22, 2015
@TallShipProds just wondering how the process actually works:)
— Jenn (@craiclander) February 21, 2015
@craiclander sometimes we ask her to bring in a particular person if we’ve thought of them for the role.
— Maril Davis (@TallShipProds) February 22, 2015
@craiclander and from there we pick the person we like for the role! 🙂
