Exeter Trek: "Our Dearest Blood".

[Warped9]

"The Cage" era female style tunic with the black skirt makes an interesting alternate to the tunic with slacks. Not bad.

Thanks again, Phillip, especially for the link. Two more intruguing films to look out for.

I was going to say didn't we see that in "The Cage", but I might be thinking I saw it on the Chris Pike story "In Harm's Way" that New Voyages did!

Exeter Trek is filmed at Farragut Films Studios. They modified TOS era sets to look like the Pilot era sets.

Yep, there are those telltale wrinkles in the back of the captain's chair (since corrected)!

What is the name of the studio it films at, now that Farragut has departed and STC is controlling interest? Not Farragut Films Studios, i'm assuming...

It is now called "Stage 9" in honor of the original Desilu sound stage that TOS was filmed on.

this looks really interesting I can't wait to watch a full episode

We filmed the interiors at Farragut studios the last weekend before Vic & company took over. I was very happy with the redress of the sets to have that Cage era look albeit another vessel. We are currently building our own sets!

Impressed they were able to pull off The Cage-era uniforms and set design so effectively. Not much else to say, yet!

Not quite, the colors of the tunics are wrong. Command was green not yellow... even in "The Cage," and "Where No Man Has Gone Before." As follows, Command Avocado green, Science Blue, Navigation Peach, I liked the colors the production was thinking; kinda "Forbidden Planet" - ish. As for Exeter Trek, I'm look forward to the final cut.

Kirk's wrap-around uniform was definitely green, but otherwise I can't find any images of green uniforms in ST:TOS, not even on The Cage. No, take that back. I just found a couple of Number One wearing something kind of in-between yellow and green.

 

[Warped9]

Age old discussion again. Yes, we know the command tunics were actually green, but they filmed as gold.

As a kid I could not understand why his shirt looked green in this pick, but gold on the tv show...

The color may be avocado, but it's the avocado that's next to the pit, not next to the skin. More gold than green, no matter whether you see it on the set(kind of green), or on your brand new 1967 RCA color TV(hardly any green at all, mostly gold).

It wasn't filmed as gold, it was the primitive broadcasting which made it appear that way. On Blu ray they're green.

Yellow on TV, the gold reference came from books, but on HDTV they are Avocado green. Now, the tunic doesn't look silly.

My granddad was ignorant about the true color of Batman's outfit in the 1960's TV show. I told him despite it looking purple on standard TV it was blue. I showed him the blu rays wonderfully presented and he then said, "You know Batman's outfit was really black." Then ranted on about the new standard broadcasting. Ignorance is bliss.

Who said it looked silly? And at 44 I know it is green, I was simply supporting someone else having confussuon

Analog color TV in the US (NTSC) has an affectionate alternate acronym.

Never The Same Color twice.

Note: however gold or green the regular tunic looked, the wraparound tunic always looked unambiguously green.

The remastered TOS really shows the green "patina", especially in the collar, in the Where No Man has Gone Before turtleneck. I don't remember it ever looking like this on NTSC, but this is how future generations will always see it.

I've mentioned this many times. Engineering- Dress uniforms: Red, Jumpsuits: Red, Duty uniform: Red. Science - Dress uniforms: Blue, medical tunics: Blue, but for Command - Dress uniform: Green, wraparound Tunics: Green, Duty uniform: YELLOW??? Makes no sense.
All the detractors have to do is open their eyes, but continue to repeat the bullsh*t the studio continue to lie about. I've seen the duty uniform at a SF expo in Seattle and at Kennedy Space Center in Florida in plain lighting and it changed my world forever. So no one is going to pull an Agent Smith on me.
