"Armstrong is on the Moon. Neil Armstrong, thirty eight year old American, standing on the surface of the Moon, on this July twentieth, nineteen hundred sixty nine."

Guys, "shotgun" is for vehicles. I think you meant to call "dibs". Shotgun on a chick? Why would you even want that?

Laugh with friends when it turns out that it was never very serious.

Officially hiring writers to write a sequel script is not the same as green lighting actual production and filming. There is no "go" on a Star Trek sequel just yet.

[QUOTE=Falcon1;171849]I still find it a shame the effects have been taken in house. No disrespect to the cgi team but its just not the same. While watching the battle it just looked so different to what we were treated to in season 2 & 3.[/Spoil…

[QUOTE=Biggles;171767]You need to go live in NZ or sourthern South America for a while.[/QUOTE] Please. It's a relatively minor problem these days, hardly the death of the planet it was supposed to be. NZ and South America, yeah, they're doing ok…

Ozone is a good one. I remember all of the hysteria about it back in the day, about how we were going to lose the ozone layer, and ecosystems were going to collapse, with millions or billions dead (depending on who was talking) and burdened by an ep…

[QUOTE=Stingray;171316]As we saw in Tibet, the Chinese aren't afraid to act either.[/QUOTE] Don't you mean "as we didn't see"? We'd survive an ice age, no problem. Not everyone would, of course. Huge numbers of people would die, but we would s…

Is climate change real and the fault of mankind? I'm open to the possibility but I'm not convinced. The planet, and life on it, has survived far worse in the past and will survive far worse in the future than what we *may* be doing to them today.…

No, I haven't. I cherish my position behind the cameras, or microphones....way behind.

Actually, light still bounces around in space, off one surface and onto others. Plus, B5 has a decent amount of lights around the structure. Also remember that it is near a planet, a huge and relatively diffuse (for space) light source. Take a look …

Well I'm redecorating my apartment after breaking up with the girlfriend, so I was thinking of getting some kind of red velvet covered rotating table, and setting up a three point spot light system of some kind. It's just an idea right now :p

It's all mine. Everyone who is actually named as a nominee gets an Emmy if they win. Croxis: :p

Those are some models Fabio made for the AOG game. I really needed a bit of variety in terms of the background ships, plus, he was able to get those models to me well before I eventually got a hold of the original B5 library. You should be able t…

The opening sequence was done by Zoic Vancouver. I'm not sure which models they used, but I know they converted and updated some of the originals for that one shot. I also noticed some strange luminous blue surface in the forward nozzles of the 'Fur…

No, not really. You'll notice the jump point looks the same for the transport carrying Father Cassidy as it does when the IA-1 arrives at B5. We made a few quick versions of the jump points before settling on one. I like the ACTA jump points as well…

Yes, that was me. Atmosphere has only done a handful of city shots though, and that texture job only appears on *our* city, and maybe a couple of shots from production's in-house team. Rainmaker has their own model of the city, for example.

Nope, I had nothing to do with the Daedalus. Most of the Stargate stuff is designed by the art department at the production office. I like the Daedalus as well, though I find it only looks good from a few angles, and it only lights well from a few a…

3) Fair comment, though I will say that updating the original Vorchan design was tried, just with more detail. It looked silly. The modeler went back and made some of his own changes, and everyone liked them. I've seen a bunch of comments online so …

Pfff. Who? :p

You would have to ask JMS about the quantum space. I would have loved more time to finesse a couple of shots, even just a week would have been a God send, but such is the world of deadlines. Mostly I would have loved our compositors to have a bit…
