After Stargate ended, I would receive all sorts of request from fans for the onscreen graphics used at Stargate Command or the Destiny.  Sadly, I never had the files so the best I could do was offer videos of the onscreen playback.  I’ve sought to rectify that oversight on Dark Matter by uploading and spotlighting all of the amazing work being done by our own playback team led by 1st Assistant Art Director Kelly Diamond.  A lot of these are simple non-featured background elements, but they add so much visual texturing to scenes and the amount of detail that goes into them is incredible…
