helped determine angles and shots that would work together to build the sequence. Shooting at Santa Clarita Studios, Picard didn't have the most extensive backlot. But they made good use of what they had, repurposing a couple of street lengths several times. For episode three, it became District 6, where Raffi (introduced in season one) and TNG alum Worf track down an important informant. With access to a SketchUp model, I helped make the most of the setting, visualizing how to build a foot chase through a crowded alien marketplace. Admiral Picard's journey in season three hinges on a personal discovery, rather than a galactic one, which ultimately ties into his infamous past Borg assimilation, and he is led once again into a confrontation with the Borg Queen, who is facing her own existential crisis. It was a thrill to play with these iconic characters and environments, building on the fantastic concept art by James Chung, John Eaves, Michael Meyers, Igor Knezevic and Neville Page. Though this trilogy of seasons brings closure to the captain and crew of the Next Generation, we'd love to see more. Will we get the adventures of Captain Seven of Nine and the Enterprise G?
