One of the things that's been perplexing me lately is this: Why sometimes blue screen, why sometimes green screen?

When filming started, Stage 8 and the Airlock set both had blue screen. 'Normal,' I thought, 'Blue. Normal.' Then suddenly, without any warning whatsoever, Stage 8 and Stage A had green screen. Why? Why green? Wasn't blue good enough?

I know that both blue and green can be used to separate the live action from the background image, but I had no idea why both were being used on this film. The man to ask is the Visual Effects Supervisor, Tom Wood.
