Yeah, you read correctly. It's Firefly and not Battlestar Galactica or Stargate itself that inspired Stargate Universe's camera work and story telling style.

Quote:

It's not intended to be style for style's sake, or to emulate any other show," Cooper said. "Although, to be honest with you, one of the shows we both love that we did look at and say, ‘That's a style we would love to try and approach,' is Firefly. That's how Firefly was shot. There's a lot of hand-held stuff. Cameras were placed in places that were non-traditional or [not] typical of film-making. But we examined that quite closely and looked at other dramatic shows that are shot like that, as well."

The road to Hel is paved with good intentions


Cool! Thanks for posting this. I'll admit whilst I'm a Stargate fan (mostly SG1) I kinda rolled my eyes when I heard they were doing another one, thinking it will probably be just the same as the others
Not necessarily a bad thing, but if its going for the firefly look and will be a bit grittier, then it's definitely something to look out for
Just hope the show survives!
