Sonequa Martin-Green takes fans through her personal journey as Captain Michael Burnham. This entry is particularly bittersweet since season 5 was the last season, and includes reflection on her entire time on Discovery plus a visit behind the scenes of filming the epilogue, where Sonequa Martin-Green and David Ajala in old age makeup meet Sawandi Wilson, the actor who will be playing their adult son, for the first time in the makeup trailer.
A tribute to Olatunde Osunsanmi. Known to most as 'Tunde, he's been a driving force on set in Toronto as the on-site executive producer and in-house director for Discovery. He's by all accounts a very nice guy, and he really took the role of being the "producer on the ground" for all 5 seasons with a lot of heart and dedication to the production.
Traditionally the man behind the mask in Discovery, Kenneth Mitchell is unveiled as Aurellio in the third season. Featuring cast and crew interviews, this emotional and intimate look touches on Kenneth's life with ALS. Discussed on camera for the first time, the featurette highlights how Kenneth's wheelchair was included for his on-screen character, his own take on the various roles he played in Discovery and what those roles mean to the show.
Todd Cherniawsky discusses the challenge of keeping canon, yet doing something new and fresh in creating the ships for use in the show. He says that the designs were influenced by large navel vessels (e.g. submarines and surface ships). Taking over for Todd Cherniawsky, Tamara Deverell did production design for the second half of season one and talks about designing the Orion Embassy/Encampment on the Klingon home world.
Creating the CG characters and scenes for the show. Many different shots showing designers, animatics and the final product. Alex Kurtzman comments on how this work has to match the best seen in contemporary movies. Many shots about green screen work done on Stage 16 at Paramount Studios for the pilot episode.
