Surface shots were
accomplished with the 18 foot model either on Serson Lake (see
the "Special Effects" pages of this site) or in the back-lot
moat, but all underwater
photography was
done in "The Green Tank. The circular tank was 32 feet
in diameter and 14 feet deep with an excellent filter
system. | |

From a
5-foot work platform at the top, the effects people were able
to operate a variety of wiring rigs used to control the
movement of the miniatures within the tank. A man
standing on the platform could
raise or lower the miniature and also change it's
attitude. . | |
