I spent several evenings on Tinkercad building cells into panels. This meant that each cell needed to be about 2.5mm. I picked a size that I wanted my model to be, 35 cm or about 14 inches.

So I set my sights on another path, 3D printing my own panels. Much to big for my shelf, but perfect for a studio scale model for anyone that wants to do that. I realized my finished model would be about 80cm long or about 31 inches. But each cell is 5 mm wide, and once I started counting cells in screen captures and doing math and ratios etc. I thought I could drill a small hole in each cell and vacuum form styrene over it and it would be perfect. I bought a panel and thought I had my solution. Its a panel of honeycomb that allows bees to build their structures on. One detail of the craft are these honeycomb textured panels.Ī friend suggested something bee keepers use called Honeycomb Foundation. I did find a few things that were not quite right so I'll fix those as I go. I built the paper lander to get a better sense of what I was facing and as a visual reference. The plans are of the Endurance, but the Lander and Ranger are included. I managed to find a set of Papercraft plans for this model, without them I would not have even bothered to start this. I hope you will forgive me if I throw in the towel a few months from now, but in the mean time I'm good to go. And all those angles, what the heck am I getting into. There will be some panels that are mirrors of another, but mostly all different. I did a rough count and came to just over 100, and not one of them the same. There are obvious difficulties with this model, beginning with all those panels.

The way Nolan wanted these lit and shot was different from the way miniature effects are often done now read the full article for much more detailed info.I really enjoyed this movie and even though the lander is not the most attractive craft, I thought I would pay homage to this movie by replicating it. There's a lot more at FXGuide, and we'll leave you with this shot of the great Ranger model, as it is positioned in an upright stance for lighting and shooting. So the crazy expensive camera used for these effects shots was housed in one of these cases with a hole cut in it for the lens - which is about as basic a rig as you can come up with for a complicated shot.

So it actually rode the exploding Ranger for several frames, and then at a specific point we could cut that cable and let the camera free to get it out of harm's way. The Pelicam had a cable going off to the crane above like a tether. And that's what held the Pelicam in place. We attached it to the nose of our exploding breakaway Ranger, and then we took a pyrotechnic 'Sweeney' trip and attached it to the nose of the Ranger. We came up with something we called the 'Pelicam.' We took a Pelican case – a durable equipment case – and we cut a hole in it and mounted our VistaVision camera inside the case. Ian Hunter, the VFX supervisor who worked on the models at New Deal, explains how (spoiler alert!) the model was used with an unconventional camera rig to create the shots in which part of the Endurance explodes.Ĭhristopher Nolan wanted the camera attached to the side of the model to emulate shots that had been done in other formats, and that required some ground-level innovation. For the Ranger and Lander crafts, full 1:1 size models were also built for location work, but the Endurance was big enough that miniatures and digital models had to do. The ship was built as a miniature, and as CG. FXGuide has a great feature on the miniature work in Interstellar, and this image of the Endurance, the ship/station seen on the poster above. Below, see images of the Interstellar miniature models, and get more info on how they were used. Docking shots, a scene featuring an explosion, and the descent into the black hole all used significant miniature effects. For Interstellar, New Deal made miniatures of the Endurance, and the Ranger and Lander crafts. The company previously made a Batmobile and garbage truck for The Dark Knight, planes for The Dark Knight Rises, and a model of the hospital fortress to be destroyed in Inception.
