24: It’s All About the Lighting

Star Trek: Horizon Virtual Set Design and Video
Production.


On a previous show we talked with Star Trek:
Horizon creator Tommy Kraft in broad terms about shooting
and processing video, working with green screens, and creating
visual effects. In this epsiode of Continuing
Mission we're joined once again by Tommy to talk about how
these techniques apply to creating an actual Star Trek film,
including building virtual sets on the NX-04 Discovery,
integrating the Discovery crew with these environments,
and the importance of sound design and capture in making the
visuals believable.
