1
00:00:12.970 --> 00:00:15.097
So these are our new
Federation uniforms.

2
00:00:15.097 --> 00:00:16.682
We first see them
in Episode 5

3
00:00:16.682 --> 00:00:18.684
when we finally find
the Federation.

4
00:00:18.684 --> 00:00:22.479
We start here with
our admiral's costume.

5
00:00:22.479 --> 00:00:24.606
You know, we're now a
thousand years in the future,

6
00:00:24.606 --> 00:00:25.899
so we had to
up our game

7
00:00:25.899 --> 00:00:27.818
and come up with a new
version of our uniforms

8
00:00:27.818 --> 00:00:29.778
when we thought we were
already doing a really great job.

9
00:00:29.778 --> 00:00:30.737
10
00:00:30,737 --> 00:00:32,030
We had to go a
little bit further

10
00:00:32.030 --> 00:00:35.534
and come up with something
that was more futuristic.

11
00:00:35.534 --> 00:00:37.077
We've been using
this fabric before,

12
00:00:37.077 --> 00:00:39.204
but not in the way that
we're using it this time.

13
00:00:39.204 --> 00:00:40.789
What I loved about
this in particular

14
00:00:40.789 --> 00:00:42.124
was the cleanness
that it gives.

15
00:00:42.124 --> 00:00:44.126
It makes it so clean
and so streamlined

16
00:00:44.126 --> 00:00:46.128
and that sort of like
what I was going for.

17
00:00:46.128 --> 00:00:49.172
For the admiral,
we wanted to...

18
00:00:49.172 --> 00:00:51.133
You know, we needed to
create our different ranks,

19
00:00:51.133 --> 00:00:53.218
we wanted to make his a
little bit more special

20
00:00:53.218 --> 00:00:57.055
and looked at some old video
game references for ideas

21
00:00:57.055 --> 00:00:59.766
in terms of how to
change what we were doing

22
00:00:59.766 --> 00:01:01.685
and add some
different elements.

23
00:01:01.685 --> 00:01:02.936
So one of the things
we were thinking of

24
00:01:02.936 --> 00:01:05.063
is how can we make them
look a bit more techie?

25
00:01:05.063 --> 00:01:06.898
These things are 3D printed

26
00:01:06.898 --> 00:01:10.027
and then we mold them
with a thermoplastic.

27
00:01:10.027 --> 00:01:11.528
And then we chrome them

28
00:01:11.528 --> 00:01:13.864
and then they turn out to
look the way they are here

29
00:01:13.864 --> 00:01:15.198
which it's quite a process

30
00:01:15.198 --> 00:01:16.908
but they're, you know,
I think it adds to it.

31
00:01:16.908 --> 00:01:18.160
And I've seen them
on camera now

32
00:01:18.160 --> 00:01:20.871
and I'm really, really happy
with what we were able to do.

33
00:01:20.871 --> 00:01:22.748
So, here we did a lot
of laser cutting.

34
00:01:22.748 --> 00:01:26.293
So these pieces here are laser
cut, like this is laser cut,

35
00:01:26.293 --> 00:01:29.212
and then this is done
with a bonding system.

36
00:01:29.212 --> 00:01:32.132
So there's no stitching in
this, these top pieces anyway,

37
00:01:32.132 --> 00:01:34.634
we did stitch the zipper
and stitched on the inside,

38
00:01:34.634 --> 00:01:35.761
so you can't see it.

39
00:01:35.761 --> 00:01:40.390
But just creates a nicer,
cleaner, more beautiful design.

40
00:01:40.390 --> 00:01:41.975
No top stitching
are on these,

41
00:01:41.975 --> 00:01:45.145
so they just have this sort
of molded look to them.

42
00:01:45.145 --> 00:01:46.897
And there's a little
bit of neoprene

43
00:01:46.897 --> 00:01:48.690
on the inside of
them as well.

44
00:01:48.690 --> 00:01:50.233
Shooting Oded in this, too,

45
00:01:50.233 --> 00:01:52.402
he just looks so
great in this uniform.

46
00:01:52.402 --> 00:01:54.780
Like, I don't know, it
just, it's like a dream.

47
00:01:54.780 --> 00:01:56.698
I couldn't have asked
for a better first actor

48
00:01:56.698 --> 00:01:58.116
to actually be wearing
it, because he's actually

49
00:01:58.116 --> 00:01:59.659
one of the first
people that wore it,

50
00:01:59.659 --> 00:02:00.952
and he looks so great in it.

51
00:02:00.952 --> 00:02:03.497
And it just-- Everything
about the way he,

52
00:02:03.497 --> 00:02:07.209
his look and his height and
everything just looked perfect.

53
00:02:07.209 --> 00:02:09.252
You know, he carries
it really well.

54
00:02:09.252 --> 00:02:11.880
And then this is our
captain's uniform.

55
00:02:11.880 --> 00:02:12.631
To make it look
a little different

56
00:02:12.631 --> 00:02:17.302
from our regular uniforms,
we added the shoulder caps.

57
00:02:18.303 --> 00:02:20.764
And then the collar bar
with pips in it.

58
00:02:24.017 --> 00:02:27.896
This is our science uniform

59
00:02:27.896 --> 00:02:31.233
and the yellow is
our operations.

60
00:02:31.233 --> 00:02:32.651
So a little different from
what we've done

61
00:02:32.651 --> 00:02:34.361
in Discovery, in terms of color.

62
00:02:37.447 --> 00:02:39.282
And then also we
designed the boots.

63
00:02:39.282 --> 00:02:42.536
Those are made as well for
us by a company in Portugal.

64
00:02:42.536 --> 00:02:44.788
The soles we chrome here.

65
00:02:44.788 --> 00:02:47.040
And then the white
uniform on the end

66
00:02:47.040 --> 00:02:50.877
is a hollow character
called, Eli.

67
00:02:50.877 --> 00:02:53.421
Here we printed the fabric, I
don't know if you can see it,

68
00:02:53.421 --> 00:02:55.298
it has like a honeycomb
print on it.

69
00:02:55.298 --> 00:02:56.758
So this is something
that we printed.

70
00:02:56.758 --> 00:02:58.969
And this, instead of
sewing, this is all bonded.

71
00:02:58.969 --> 00:03:01.304
So this is all bonded
onto each other here,

72
00:03:01.304 --> 00:03:03.557
which is something we wanted
to do for this character

73
00:03:03.557 --> 00:03:05.892
because he's supposed
to be fully virtual.

74
00:03:05.892 --> 00:03:07.769
So I didn't want it to
look like it was sewn

75
00:03:07.769 --> 00:03:08.979
like regular clothing,

76
00:03:08.979 --> 00:03:10.272
wanted him to look
a little different.

77
00:03:10.272 --> 00:03:13.150
And then I had this idea
to print the bow tie

78
00:03:13.150 --> 00:03:14.359
and you know, so that's,

79
00:03:15.735 --> 00:03:20.735
we 3D printed it and then
molded it and painted it here.

80
00:03:20.866 --> 00:03:23.326
Alex really liked the
way the actor came in

81
00:03:23.326 --> 00:03:24.744
with a bow tie on, and said,

82
00:03:24.744 --> 00:03:27.622
"Could you incorporate that
into the design somehow?"

83
00:03:27.622 --> 00:03:30.667
And so this is what we came
up with, we kind of love it.

84
00:03:30.876 --> 00:03:32.127
Your limbic system
has been getting

85
00:03:32.127 --> 00:03:33.461
quite a workout,
Commander.

86
00:03:33.461 --> 00:03:36.131
Are you prone to
emotional exaggeration?

87
00:03:36.131 --> 00:03:37.549
That'll be all, Eli.
