To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey, enjoy this June 1968 issue of Popular Science magazine from my archive.
How they filmed 2001: A Space Odyssey by Herbert Shuldiner Popular Science, June 1968
Columnist Shuldiner tells the story behind the scenes of 2001: A Space Odyssey interviewing scientific advisor Frederick I. Ordway and writer Arthur C. Clarke. Technical innovations developed for the film and the state of the art work for building the starships models are described in detail, with the help of drawings by Bob McCall, who served as conceptual artist and designed some of the film's posters.
Celebrating the 50th anniversary of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey, here’s a second coverage of the film’s special effects from my archive.
Backstage Magic for a Trip to Saturn by Richard F. Dempewolff Popular Mechanics, April 1967
Columnist Dempewolff was invited to Borehamwood to visit the sets where 2001: a Space Odyssey was in production so he could see how the trick shots for the movie were developed and realized. More than a year before the final release date, Kubrick began the promotional campaign for his film by stimulating the audience with articles and pictures telling the cutting-edge technology used by special effects wizards to simulate a trip beyond the stars. Howard Shafer's drawings carefully explain how mechanical effects were done for no-gravity scenes, and Arthur C. Clarke, while touring the stages, explains to Dempewolff the scientific implications in the tale. It is worth noting that, at the time the article was written, the Discovery spaceship was still supposed to travel towards Saturn, instead of Jupiter: the end of the trip was changed later in the production for photographic problems in realizing Saturn's rings in a realistic way. Similarly, the article features some of the early pre-production design for the spaceships, different than those actually filmed.
So looking forward to watching with with my hubby for date night. Check out this post from @stanleykubrick - Stanley Kubrick's vision of the technological future from 1968. #2001Turns50 #2001ASpaceOdyssey #space #scifi #ai #horror #philosophical follow me • • • https://yutani.blog • • • - #regrann
