To create the space ride at the film's climax, Douglas Trumbull combined aerial footage of Monument Valley, Utah, shot through colored filters, with other aerial shots originally made for Stanley Kubrick's Il dottor Stranamore - Ovvero: come ho imparato a non preoccuparmi e ad amare la bomba (1964). He also invented a split-scan effect by keeping the camera's shutter open to expose a single frame of film while he moved the light source toward the camera to create fantastic light patterns. A digital tool for creating slit scans is a now standard plug-in for off-the-shelf movie editing software and has been for over twenty years.
