Powered Descent posted:I remember reading somewhere that all the way back in TOS, they originally wanted to rear-project short film loops (readouts, gauges, etc.) onto all those screens around the circumference of the bridge, above each station. The problem was that the union rules of the time hadn't been written with that sort of effect in mind, so they'd have needed to have a union projectionist on set... and not just one projectionist, but one for each screen. There was no chance of finding the budget for that, so all those screens usually just displayed static images of pretty space stuff. I know I've heard a story somewhere that they did that for some TMP scenes, but the racket of half-a-dozen projectors meant nobody could hear stage directions and the dialog had to be overdubbed later.

Sash! posted:Q even says controlling. Although I'm not sure that's something that would actually work. I'm skeptical of the quality of soldiers you're getting out of a bunch of guys just looking for their next hit.
