He's using the Fox soundstages in Sydney.

We've already seen a quick peek inside the studios too.

Awesome, the sound stage sets felt positively huge in Prometheus. I just felt that they were a little empty-looking inside the derelict ship, itself. I imagine they were much larger than Alien's derelict, but I much prefer them using tricks (kids in space suits) and cool lighting (with Ridley wafting purfume around with cardboard sheets) and darkness to achieve something otherwordly and spooky. I liked Prometheus enough, but I'd rather have the ship and temple not be empty with only holograms to fill up the space.

Sidenote: I didn't really like the holograms or the ghosts. The Orrery wasn't terrible, but the ghost Engineers were too grainy.

Nope. Definitely from Alien. It's tagged on the tumblr page with these:

Yes, you are right... The camera is not Epic Dragon - Red...

I wanted this to be from Covenant :'( :'( :'(

Corporal Hicks

Me too. I would have loved to have seen a new picture like this.

Man!! I almost died!! Imagine if Covenant went full ALIEN on us (and by that I refer to it having a heavy Giger aesthetic).

Corporal Hicks

I would love nothing more than a return to that heavy Giger aesthetic. It's one of the few things I really want.

Perfect-Organism

We want more Giger aesthetic!  We want more Giger aesthetic!!!

Is it sad my heart raced a lil when I first saw that pic and thought it was from Covenant?

Not at all.... I think this may have been all of our reactions.

I apologize for the false joy...I had never seen this before!

And it's amazing to see such impressive scenery for a film of 79'! Alien ... best of all.

But I trust for a fantastic scenery in Covenant.
