The Last Words

 




The Credits / Titles for Mirror Image

 

  

 

 
 

All of the titles and credits for Quantum Leap were done by taking a black cell and cutting out the letters for each title. Then they would put the cell on a white backlit background. Then they shot it with a video camera, then with a modern linear switcher they did a simple "key" to cut out the shape (in other words take anything that's white and keep that shape), then they added the tint and drop shadow with the switcher as well. Presto....credits.

Thanks to Matt Dale for the high-res photos!

We interrupt your regularly scheduled podcast to bring you breaking news!

Quantum Leap Podcast staffer Allison Pregler has made the uncovery of the century — finding photographic proof that an alternate ending to series finale Mirror Image was likely filmed.

Allison joins co-host Christopher DeFilippis and Quantum Leap expert Matt Dale to discuss the photos, which feature Dean Stockwell as Al and Susan Diol reprising her role as Beth in a scene contained in original production scripts for Mirror Image — previously thought unfilmed.

But you don’t have to take our word for it. We also have an amazing interview with Susan Diol, who shared her memories of that shooting day and helped shed some new light on this amazing find.

So please join us was we take a new Leap — into Quantum Leap history!
