Q13.

Arguably, the single most intriguing effect of them all. We see the two of them making their way along a tubular tunnel to a rotating hatch. As if by magic, the moment Dave and Frank reach the hatch they start rotating with it and have the apparently near- impossible task of threading their way into the hatch, feet first. Of course, it is the rotating set effect again, but with the added intricacy of being in two parts.

Next slide.

Q13 (Continued). While in the tunnel part, Dave and Frank

are simply clambering their way towards the hatch which is really rotating. But at the point where they move from one part to the other, the rotation is transferred from the hatch section to the tunnel. The camera starts moving, while Dave and Frank simply climb down into the now- stationary opening. Difficulty factor: achieving a stop- start rotation without a trace of jerkiness. What am I talking about?

ANSWER

2001: A Space Odyssey.
