Superimposition














I believe that Superimposition is when multiple images are exposed on the same film strip causing concealment of certain areas/ items on the base image. This may also be used for various effects from the added layers of images.

I think this was used in the above scene to communicate a syfi feel and aura to the audience with its blue tint and multiple super imposed layers (Black Space background - Futuristic city - Space ship). This makes it interesting for the audience to watch and is immediately recognisable  as having a science fiction theme.
