Those 80s special effects tricks
« on: August 24, 2010, 10:02:03 pm »
Hi, I just joined and am loving all the cool arcadey stuff going on. I thought you would like this neat bit of info I found in the Star Trek II Wikipedia page:

Special consideration was given during filming to allow for integration of the planned special effects. Television monitors standing in for computer displays were specially calibrated so that their refresh rate did not result in banding on film.[10]
