It was included on the ''[[Meglos (TV story)|Meglos]]'' [[DVD]], since ''Meglos'' was the only ''[[Doctor Who]]'' [[serial]] to use Scene Sync. | The documentary followed a broad outline. First, it introduced [[CSO]] (or chroma key) and showed some examples of its use in [[1970s]] ''[[Doctor Who]]''. Then it showed the key flaw in CSO filming that Scene Sync was meant to eliminate. Next it followed with an explanation of some of Scene Sync's flaws. Finally, it ended by explaining how Scene Sync eventually faded from use in the late [[1980s]], and gave an overall assessment of its efficacy while it was employed. | ||
The documentary was unusual for featuring only interviewees who had never been credited on ''Doctor Who'', and for having an unknown narrator who wasn't credited. | |||
