VFX BREAKDOWN | STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS

Thank you to everyone at Paramount Plus for allowing Ghost VFX to go on another exciting journey into the far-reaches of space aboard the USS Enterprise…

“While The USS Enterprise is a well-established asset, we completely reworked it for the new season. We stayed mostly true to the original design but added much finer model texture and shading details. This proved to be essential as the asset comes under great scrutiny in the series - seen from all possible camera positions and distances.” - Ivan Kondrup Jensen, VFX Supervisor (Copenhagen)

Ghost VFX proudly provided visual effects services on the show.

Easily one of the coolest Star Treks out there.

[codenamecatatonic]

These effects are amazing. Set pieces & lighting are top notch. 🤟

[HolfordXYZ]

I would honestly love a 4K export of the final (and pre-final / pre-bloom) shots from here! Imagine those as high-quality art prints, or desktop wallpapers. Beautiful work!

[braddas]

This is awesome and the music fits in perfectly, how the hell you only have 385 views?

[alasdairgardiner]

Now, can anyone imagine how Star Trek Online would look if the graphics were of this level of high quality?

[Comedycast]

These shots are beautiful. I hope the team gets all the awards and rewards! And that last minute requests & changes are kept to a minimum.

I do agree that the haze layer is a shame. It hides so much of the work. But perhaps it's there to even out detailed and non-detailed shots or blend live action with effects a bit better. I have no idea. Just know that we'd love to see more of your work!

2:08 is such a great shot. I love how angular the Romulan fleet is and how it all stacks together.

[KamepinUA]

You guys sure hid a whole Nimitz Class ship pretty well right there

[bullseyne]

Bravo team ! Outstanding work and thank you from all of Starfleet !

[dps]

Beautiful! 🖖🏻 Thanks for sharing!
Can someone explain why the smoke/haze layer is added? The shot at the 15 second mark is gorgeous — crisp and sharp — but then this layer of space fog is added the next second. I’d pay good money to see these shots use this effect at only 10-20% strength. I apologize in advance if there’s something I’m missing.

[NormalNonsense]

The final layer of haze takes away so much from seeing the great work. Maybe rethink a bit for S2.

[奶路牛]

Congratulations on the beautiful work first, but also I must say that last layer of bloom is really killing all the beautiful details. I’m not sure if this feedback would get to your artists but next time if someone at CBS ask you to put on that awful filter again, stand your ground. A lot of us want crisp looking vfx shots to appreciate the details!

[Lumibear.]

All the way through I just wanted to wipe the lens and reset the black point.

[ChristopherSloane]

So what are those other ships behind the Enterprise?

[outcastt]

Is that an Epsilon IX-type comm grid in the back there?

[UnanimousDelivers]

Great work on the show, but this video showcasing it should have been just the before and after. All the various other clips seem to be included as filler, rather than actually showing off the work done.

[samcarpenter_]

Please ditch that last bit of processing and filter

[swpowell]

Not a fan of the haze downgrading the video quality. Love the special effects !

[johnmiller]

Yikes! That grime filter is just awful. Kills the great work being done completely.

Someday someone needs to share the cgi models
