The one in the Star Trek V turbolift car may be a rotating light barrel. They could even use the sound from the barrel as that made by the Enterprise-A turbolift car moving up the shafts.

Sorry, that was a composite image I created from 4 different screenshots!
Unless you meant the shadow lines in WNMHGB?
There's still the issue of the varied light intensity (and size) of the light strips - this is not something you'd see on a straight conveyor belt system.
Oh, well, never mind then. I mean the image above. 
Good work, though!

Maybe they used a drum at first, then switched to a conveyor.
Hollywood for quite a time wasn't about showing the man behind the curtain, ergo you rarely saw photos of the sets' backsides because of fears it might ruin the illusion. There are some, sure, but those are mostly candids shot by cast and crew and not the on-set photographers. You never quite look at SHADO the same after the UFO episode that shows the sets as sets.YMMV; that in itself mildly surprises me.I sense the usual explanation will be that they didn't know they were working on something that would still be remembered—let alone revered—60 years later, but these folks clearly took pride in their work and said work was amazing. I know there a hundred logical explanations. It still bemuses me a bit.
That looks like a CRT on its side.
Hmmm. Maybe it was. In 1988 it shouldn't have been too hard to project a rolling screensaver or scrolling lines on a CRT tube, even with the monitors of the time.
Movie and TV sound doesn't work that way. Normally only the dialogue spoken on-camera by the actors is recorded live (and even much of that has to be re-recorded or "looped"). All the other sounds you hear are done in post-production.
I thought as much after I posted that. I knew all that.
