One
of the crucial aspects in the making of any movie is setting the
right scene. Blade Runner set the scene so well, that people are
still "being inspired" by it 20 years later. BR became
one of the most accurate predictions of a future city of any film
to the extent that in the documentary made in 2000, a flight over
Los Angeles was so like the film, some casual viewers even thought
it was an excerpt from the movie itself!
Then
there are the superb sets - and those great locations! From the
Bradbury Building to Union Station and the excellent reality of
creating Chew's lab in an actual storage freezer! Of course some
places needed to be created on a studio backlot to get the intense
detail demanded by Ridley Scott.
In
this section we explore the different locations and the people who
made them and even provide some current photos of the actual Los
Angeles locations. The BR pictures themselves are mostly copyrighted
by the Blade Runner Partnership and are used here purely in promotion
of the film. A few of the more current location photos are gathered
from the Web - if you see one that is unattributed and you know
who took it, please let me know. However, most of the current (August
2001) location photos were taken by Gnomus
specifically for this website, to be shared with BR fans everywhere.
Many thanks to Gnomus for doing this for everyone. If you should
wish to use any of the pictures taken by Gnomus on another website,
please contact him for permission.
