hi,
I know that occasionally the special effects wizards of SG-1 and Atlantis post to these forums. I want to invite them and of course the other forum posters to discuss the technical means ofthese sets and visual effects that make at least a great a contribution to the show as the actors themselves.
First question:
Anyone notice that display in Atlantis that looks like a clear plastic window but shows graphics on it? You see it a few times behind Mckay and another time when a Genii examines it while Weir and the red haired woman whose father was killed are getting the Wraith data device.
How is that accomplished? Do they have a hidden projector in the ceiling projecting onto a plastic sheet?
