A Twins FX fever dream come to life!
"Make the Supreme Dalek levitate over the heads of a stadium audience without using camera tricks, steel wires, or a giant crane! Oh, and the audience can't see how it's done; we need this to be the WOW moment of the show!"
That was the request from the BBC for the final, epic onstage battle of Doctor Who Live - The Monsters are Coming on a nine city, 25-date stadium tour. We delivered that WOW moment! The Supreme Dalek levitated more than 35 metres high into the air to the gasps of a shocked audience.
Everything had to be bespoke; the flying system, the white Supreme Dalek and various stadium illusions for cast members and the Cybermen. We also made a number of hand-held props for the tour.
