The images of the interior of the V'Ger cloud were created using airbrush paintings. Lead by animation supervisor Alison Yerxa, a team of animators created thousands of air-brushings using white paint on black paper. These were then photographed, made into transparencies, and used as positive and negative masks on a special multi-plane animation camera. Color tints were then added using filters during the optical compositing process. The sequence was inspired by a Canadian documentary called Universe (1960), which Douglas Trumbull had seen during the making of 2001: Odissea nello spazio (1968).
