 The special effects crew of this film were at work about
 six days(60 hours) each week. Most of the models were created
 at ILM out of brass plates which were etched where lights
 were needed. Then, neon lights were placed inside to create a
 wonderful glow. At the end of the film, when the explosion
 was set of by the Genesis device, a special high speed camera
 was used. For an example of the speed, normal cameras at
 normal speed travel at 24 fps(frames per second) the camera
 for this shot ran at 2500 fps! So fast that on film it took
 one minute forty four seconds and in real time it took less
 than one second.

 In this film, many of the same ideas were used to do the
 effects in Star Trek 2. One of the new ideas was the doglike
 pet of the Klingon leader. To do this, Ken Ralston built a
 foam latex `dog' and operated it from a small cut away
 section of the ship's raised floor. The detailed models of
 Star Trek III were made by William Beck, Mike Fulmer, Ira
 Keeler, and Jeff Mann. ILM then used a motion control camera
 (guided by computer) to move the models in front of a blue
 screen. After alot of hard work and editing in an optical
 printer ,the models are `spliced' onto a prefilmed
 background.
 
 
 If you have any questions on the effects mentioned or any at
 all leave me a message by E-MAIL.
 I will also upload the effects to Star Trek:The Next
 Generation very soon.
 I hope you enjoyed the information, and can't wait to hear
 from you.

 Announcer : The crew donn special isolation garments: black shiny
 jackets bearing the EnterBoing's emblem on the back, a bloody
 pentacle superimposed upon a goat's head. Check those pupils.
 The demonic crew shimmer away in a blazing explosion of special
 effects. and reappear in a bunch of twisty little mazes looking
 all alike. Stuff crawls down the walls, their feet stick to the
 floor as if they were in a cheap
