minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink8•26 days agoIt’s how its shot. Star Trek (and anything modern I guess) is green screen and the second person edited in later. The actors are talking to nobody B5 uses CRTs, both actors are sitting in different parts of the set talking to each other live, because they could record that. The difference it makes is crazy. So much conversation is so much more natural due to it. Wish shows would make it happen again somehow
minus-squarenickwitha_k (he/him)linkfedilink2•26 days agoI think that The Expanse did a great job at leveraging the green screen thing for comms. Because they don’t have FTL, the less conversational feeling really works because, in-universe, they’re basically never speaking in real-time.
