Star Way: Journey There were many special effects, but perhaps no one was more impressive than when the ship landed on the planet in the premiere episode of the “37 -x” season. It was the first for the franchise to carry out one of Gin Rhodenberri’s ideas, which he previously considered too expensive to show on the screen. However, this effect was almost disappointing thanks to the behind -the -scenes production problems, including incorrectly developed landing stand and CGI model, which was too small.
This is specifically Voyager The special effect was one of the team that had long been dreaming … For example, the graphic designer of the franchise Michael Okuda, who previously recommended the performer Rick Berman, that this ship should be able to land as a way to distinguish him from what it used to be. Accordingly, Rick Sternbach developed several possible designs of ships that could accommodate planting opportunities, and he became convinced that the finished design had small hatches on the lower case designed to place the planting equipment. However, only after the development of these racks did the manufacturer realize that the “legs” of the ship look too thin to support his body.
The Voyager shot, which landed on the planet in the “37’s” was appointed such a large special service, and the producers were clear that the audience would be disappointed if it looked the way the ship always missed the day of the feet. In the grand tradition of television, they decided to correct this problem in post-production … In this case, placing the rocks and other features of the soil strategically around Voyager when it landed. Return and look at the episode, and you will see how they effectively darkened the viewers’ gaze on these teenage landing racks.
However it was not the only problem Voyager“Numerous special effects … As it turns out, the digital show artists accidentally made the CGI ship model too tiny. This is annoyed by the head of the visual effects of Ronald B. Moore (not to be confused Battlestar Galactica Restart Ronald D. Moore), who was disappointed with the landing effect because “the voyager on the ground was wrong.” However, he did not feel that the audience was sure to notice, “because there is nothing to associate it with it; people are in the foreground, the ship in the background, and we somehow kept it.”
Longtime The stellar path fans, this Voyager The moment was more than another special effect … It was also the realization of the decades of the dream that began with Gin Rhodenberri. Initially, the creator of the franchise dreamed regularly to land on the planets The original series, But soon he realized how expensive it would be to have a ship where you are new every week. That’s how the conveyor was born as allowed Captain Kirk And his former crew will quickly visit a new one, and then head to the ship through a much cheaper special effect “ray”.
VoyagerThe manufacturers came to the same conclusion as Rhodenberri, and therefore the show mainly adhered to the special effect of the transporter, not to constantly have the land of the ship. However, he landed several more times after the 37th, and the producer was much easier to bring this ambitious impact on life on the following attempts. They did it, despite the fact that the CGI model for the ship is too small, which may prove that the size really doesn’t matter in the 24th century. We do not recommend saying that Captain Janeve is about her morning cups of coffee, however, if you don’t want her to kill you faster than she killed Tuvix!
