Hey,
Scott comes through again with the cinematography!
Wonderful use of angles as usual.
Love the phaser pan around.
Setting some Trek precedents now huh?
Well done.
Just noticed the reflectivity of the silver metal strips on the inside of the warp nacelles.
Nice detail!
Now only if the back domes were shiny too
Can’t wait to see more!
One suggestion,
We’re learning in film school that if you use canted (slightly tilted) angles it makes things more upsetting. I was thinking if you tilted this angle slightly it would make the situation look more desperate for the Enterprise.
Oh I’m not going to be using that camera angle or the relatively motionless Enterprise flight path in the actual scene. This was strictly a test to see how the phaser effect I devised looked from a distance and close up. (I’d imagine that what you see next month will look more like that desktop wallpaper-sized still image.)
Hey Scott,
I just want to say first of all, you’re very talented. Keep up the work you do. I love all of it.
Now is it too late and/or too much to ask for the phasers to be blue? As a TOS fan I do have an appreciation for re-imaginings, but I do also like continuity. If you can’t I understand.
Finally, it’s not too late to submit something for TNG! Those effects are LONG over due for a retouch.

Oh, and great choice of lighting angle as well!

Love that still (deckers revenge)
Nice ambient glow around the impulse engines as well.
