    looks like the black uniforms have chest insignia, the grey have insignia on the hats like pikes hat and the reds have collar pips

    In the top picture one guy seems to be checking his pecker.


    The naked legs look very raw and pink for some reason after I magnified them.

    Some skirts have v plait at the back.


    Actually come to think of it it actually reminds me of "V" THE SCI-FI SERIES.

    Almost sure of it as when I first looked at it I had a feeling of seeing this scene before.

    This could actually be a "V" remake shots.

    The scene does look ugly and not Trekkish to me.

    It is "V".

    In any case it is the wrong shade of red.A very hideous red.


    I have a bad feeling about this.

    hmmmm. Got to say, I'm not keen on the uniforms. Not because fo any silly 'not Trek enough' reason - I just don't care for them. The black/grey ones are alright (cept the hats - :wtf:) but the red ones are a bit too loud for my taste. Might look better in the finished film though, filmed colours rarely resemble real life colours!

    I see what you mean. If they are going back to the original uniforms (which they obviously are since it's a pre-Kirk film), I think that's one area of the film they can afford to re-image and update. The retro look is just so dated. That's not to say skirts and boots don't work, quite the contrary, but the loud colours need to go.

    If you mean those two red dots.. Then I would guess that those are meant for post-production so that they can add digital pillars easily on top of them.

    Every dot or square on something in these pics is for ILM to line up everything in 3D on their computers when makeing digital wheverhaveyou into the background / forground / ect.

    It's funny to watch the behind the scenes stuff on Jurassic Park with actors running in an mostly empty field that has tennis balls planted every yard makeing a grid like pattern so ILM can add digital dinos to the shot later on.

    That and remove said tennis balls from the shot as well, natch.

    When you sit in the theater and watch this scene that's being filmed you may not reconize it when they are done inserting digital whateveritis, one of the great things about shooting outdoors in natural light, give the FX guys a point of referance, the shadows are going that way so the sun is over there, therefore we do the same on our digital stuff so it blends right in.

    The problem with doing that stuff in a studio is obvious, yes ?

    The computer needs something as reference to tell it where to put stuff, otherwise they'd have to position the CGI manually for every single frame. The bluescreen also has markers on it. I'm guessing they'll insert a shot of the golden gate or something for the bluescreen.

    Just a guess:

    black/dark gray = officers
    light gray = instructors
    red = students

    There were some earlier pictures of Chris Pine wearing a red uniform. I guess he was playing Cadet Kirk in those scenes (assuming red uniform is for cadets).
