This water stage was designed to afford not only ample surface space at 42 feet long and 24 feet wide, but also incorporates a natural undulating slope of gray tones in the deep 16 ft end that simulates the ocean or lake floors. Recessed tie-downs are built into the walls and bottom for equipment restraints and also for water solids, black, blue and green screens. The area around the tank is a spacious open deck which can facilitate surface booms, techno cranes, lighting, grip equipment and camera support.
