Golfing through the gate - Take #1 Stargate: SG-1, "Window of Opportunity"

Back in the day, Stargate accomplished a lot on what, at the time, was a pretty modest budget. A big part of our success was thanks to our in-house visual effects team led by VFX Supervisor Mark Savela. Check out this EVA chasm jump sequence from Stargate: Atlantis's "Adrift" featuring Sheppard and Zelenka. It was shot in what we coined, appropriately enough, the VFX stage - home to the village set, some Atlantis interiors, and the hive ship.

Speaking of stirring sci-fi t.v. opening themes....

I feel this is a good day to roll out one of my favorite Stargate bloopers

An opening theme as wonderfully weird as the show itself.

Another one of my favorite sci-fi t.v. themes. Surprised?

A notable scene that shot for Stargate: Atlantis but never found its way to screen was this exchange between Carter and Sheppard at the conclusion of "Reunion", the third episode of the show's fourth season. The scene was intended to develop the friendship/working relationship between these two characters and close out the episode, but we were running long and I thought it would be better to end with the Ronon-Teyla scene since it was Ronon’s episode. Blue screen here as our heroes would have looked out on the waters surrounding the city through the magic of visual effects. The scene would have concluded with a PULL BACK ON the city, the ocean and then FADE OUT.

One more BTS VFX sequence compliments of former Stargate Visual Effects Supervisor Mark Savela, again from Stargate: Atlantis's "Adrift". The actual physical set for the Midway Station would not be built until later in the season but, through the magic of visual effects, we establish it here. The Zero-G weightlessness is achieved by having actress Amanda Tapping ride through the shot on an O.S. skateboard.

Stargate Trivia: Window of Opportunity We had no idea this episode would become so beloved by fandom and yet, looking back, it’s easy to see why it has. It’s one of those "fun" episodes with a fairly straightforward premise that allows our characters to shine in ways unexpected. Specifically, Jack and Teal’c who, in the past, have relied on Carter and Daniel to handle the science and Ancient translations, and suddenly find themselves having to step into their team members’ shoes. Yes, it’s our version of Groundhog Day. And yet, in its earliest form, the pitch for this story was very different, much darker in tone. Originally titled Ad Infinitum, it involved the team gating to a planet and becoming trapped in a seemingly endless time loop orchestrated by a dying race seeking to buy more time to come up with a solution to an impending armageddon (which became the backstory of the device’s genesis mentioned in the episode by Malakai). Exec Producer Robert Cooper suggested another spin on the time loop angle and, while I was dubious at first (“Isn’t this Groundhog Day?”I remember asking. “Yeah,”was Rob’s counter.), I was proven wrong. Now, the “Groundhog Day” episode has become a staple of most every genre show. While there’s a lot to like about this episode, it was the “time off” montage that stands out. And it almost didn’t happen. The episode was timing short, it was clear we would need to come up with some extra scenes, and that gave Brad the opportunity to do something he had always wanted to do: see our characters golfing through the stargate. And so, several scenes were added (they were all scripted, not improvised as some fans assumed): the juggling, Teal’c’s repeated door run-in, Jack riding his bike through the corridors of the SGC, Jack trying his hand at pottery, the golfing through the gate and, oh yes, THE KISS. The latter was my former writing partner Paul Mullie's idea - in his pitch, an opportunity we could not pass up. Note: We made sure to have Jack tender his official resignation before dipping Carter and planting one on her, just to make sure we didn’t catch any flak from our Air Force tech advisors.

Last year, I came across a bunch of old VHS dailies from this episode and, after having the footage converted to digital files, I uploaded a bunch of the more memorable outtakes and alt. takes. In case you missed them the first time, here are a bunch of them in one dedicated thread… Stargate - Window of Opportunity Alt. Takes and Outtakes 1/10
