From the "objective" classical staging of the 90s to JJ Abrams' kinetic camera work, let's break down Star Trek's visual evolution. We examine how cinematography techniques like lens flares, handheld motion, and soft lighting have replaced the motivated camera movement and active blocking that defined Star Trek's style for decades.
