Jonathan Mock Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 No problem! Looking at the video clip and the finished shot, I'd guess they never got the wave tank to work and ended up shooting the wave separately and comped it into the wide shot of the miniature of the harbour. And credit to the VFX guys, while the buildings were photo cut out, those stills show how convincing the minature was. Sorry for resurrecting this thread again but the Bluray release has piqued my interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KH Martin Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 I didn't view the link but I remember reading an article about the wave in STARLOG (issue 27, an FX-heavy issue I probably bought and rebought about 10 times in the last 35 years), and you're right, the wave never crested as intended. I think it was Warren's guy, with Mike MInor, working on it. They cut little STARLOG back issue covers out of the magazine and used them to dress the newsstands for the shot. Now that I wrote this, I think I'm going to look for the STARLOG online resource, they're supposed to have a lot of articles up, and up through 1982 or so they actually had good information some of the time (before it turned into a total PR thing.)
