We built this elaborate set @ Carousel Cinema Studios in Miami for a TV special. The set represents our creative license of a below deck command center of an Air Craft Carrier control room for launching missiles. We built this realistic looking set in 3 days using plywood for walls,cardboard we painted gray & black, Computer Keyboards we had laying around inlaid into the fake consuls, computer monitors, a few small LCD screens being fed some graphics. And of course, cinematic lighting.
This missile command sequence was done back in 1997. Yes it would be much better today. But we did a pretty good job regardless for that time and the super small budget. Was filmed with Sony Beta 507's and DSR 300's. AND! We built it ALL! for UNDER! $20 GRAND.
YOU CAN VISIT THE MIAMI STUDIO WE USED in the event you need a reasonably priced studio location to shoot in.
