The stand-ins for The Next Generation 's main actors on Season 4
A stand-in is a person who substitutes for an actor on set while the lighting is adjusted, the action is blocked, and other production details are taken care of prior to actual filming. Generally, stand-ins look (or are made to look) similar to the performer for whom they are standing in, to avoid making it obvious to the viewing audience that it is not the same person. Stand-ins were also used for various computer-generated characters, such as Slar or the Xindi-Insectoids. Stand-ins work mostly as background performers, too, because they are always on set and are called the second team.
Like stand-ins body doubles and photo doubles were also used on-screen. They stand-in for an actor and replace the person in wide shots and also in partial shots. When a scene shows a hand that pushes a button it is mostly a hand double. They were also used in scenes which show the same person twice, one as a mirror person and the other one as the "real" person or an older version of the character.
