Moon

An original filming miniature used during the production of Moon, the acclaimed 2009 science fiction drama directed by Duncan Jones and starring Sam Rockwell.

This is the original return craft model miniature used during the production of the movie. Director Duncan Jones worked closely with a skilled model effects team headed up by veteran model maker Bill Pearson at Shepperton Studios to create the miniature effects. This return craft, a focal point of the Sarang base, was designed by Bill Pearson and constructed by him and other members of the effects team largely from EMA plastics and featuring imitation hydraulic landing gear and thrusters to the underside. The miniature is painted and weathered to a high standard and further detailed with numerous LUNAR INDUSTRIES decals to give a very industrial feel and provide the look you would expect of a moon based craft.

The miniature measures a very impressive 28" high and approximatly 22" at its widest point, it remains in excellent screen used condition with only light wear from on set use. The final images show the miniature on set and under construction at Shepperton Studios during the production.

With very few filming miniatures produced for the movie this represents an incredible display spectacle and a testament to the quality of the model effects work on this already cult science fiction masterpiece.
