One of the things made Star Trek: The original series It was very common that it was broadcast in color at a time when many famous TV programs were still black and white. In addition to the bright colors of the uniform, the early groups were particularly colored because cinematographer Jerry Feneman used the background to run the gray interior walls otherwise. He did this for a secret reason: the show was broadcast on NBC, and because the network was owned by RCA, the science fiction show has become more colored to sell more colored TVs.
Again in the 1960s, many families were carefully weighing whether they should update their old black and white collections into a color model. RCA was in a somewhat unique position because it could use NBC ownership to create colored TV programs, which effectively gives consumers a reason for the upgrade. Star Trek It became a kind of pioneer for this new series, and RCA has used the display prominently in ads with Tag lines such as “When you are the first on colored TV, there should be a reason.”
For the first season of Star TrekHe was mostly the hard work of Jerry Feneman and lighting his background that made this “first on colored TV”. He did more than making the backgrounds more vibrant … It can be said that he drinks the institution with a kind of warmth that made it feel like a habitat for countless fans everywhere. Unfortunately, the production schedule for subsequent seasons means that he had no time to prepare this lighting, which is why season 2 and 3 seem relatively.
By the way, RCA using Star Trek and other offers to announce colorful TVs are a more intelligent step than you think. As you see the company also The expensive equipment was sold the price needed to photograph the colors, and therefore the emphasis on the importance of colored TV helped them earn money on sales of television, cameras sales and other production equipment. They used their use of Star Trek to Trek to Track Color TV to promote NBC, which means that RCA can earn more money via ads and other networks related to the network.
Use Star Trek To sell colorful TVs you may have done more than RCA money … in fact, this science fiction series has provided some perdition. NBC wanted to cancel The original series After the first season, the most common narration is that the exhibition was alive due to the messages writing campaigns and other demonstrations to support fans. However, in his book Inside Star Trek: The true storyand The original series An execution responsible for the production of Herbert F. Solo, that the offer may have been renewed despite its low rankings because it was making a lot of money.
Ironically, Star Treke did not have much colors as in The original series…Next generation A afternoon of making spacecraft looks like washed holidays, and Live-Action Nutrek is now insanely Darkness in more than one way. In the days of Captain Kerk, this privilege was about giving us great colors of red and gold. These days, though, Star Trek gives us only one color: blues.
