Fedcon 2009 Opening Animation

[vladmcjagger]

Love the detail that the Kevlin has some kinda "ehh" shields that keep the hull from getting damaged for a bit while the Enterprise has a bubble shield that is clearly much stronger. Makes sense with the tech upgrade and what their ships function would have been and I think details like that should be in the actual films honestly.

It's a pity the actual movie didn't have the slow, majestic shots of the ship like this does, giving a feeling of just how enormous these things really are. That was one of my favorite aspects of the original movies, and it's been sorely missing from everything since. The Kelvin is actually quite a cool-looking ship when you have time to admire it. This was a pleasure to watch!

This work is almost a decade old, and it still holds up and looks fantastic today.

More than 10 years later and this video is still going strong. Was my greatest pleasure to write the music for this .. and I can only hope it gave all the fans chills with that ending. Very satisfying for me personally. Tobias’s incredible model actually made me fall in love with this Enterprise design .. wasn’t such a fan before hand. Superb video made by one helluva talented 3D artist. And love it or hate it .. the music was my pleasure to write for this epic film and I’ve no regrets!

This class of ship especially with the TOS era deflector and collector really tickled my fancy ngl

this is beautiful!! so fantastic!! as if jim kirk, when he and his fine ship come on in, is saying, in essence: "I'm here to save you, Dad!!" such a very wonderful little vignete....

Thanks for all the recent comments.

This movie was done 6 years ago. It was purely done to show the Kelvin and the Enterprise prior to the actual movie (based only on images from the trailer). The "story" is intentionally simple.

There are no phaser cannons because at the time I made this animation, the movie was not out yet and I did not know the Enterprise had these Phaser cannons.

There will be no updated version or continuation of this short little movie.

You can see more of my work in fan-produced movies and series like "Star Trek - New voyages", "Star Trek: Axanar" and "Star Trek: Renegades".

[tlwtobiasrichter]

Thanks - the visuals were done by just one person in around 4 months time (including modelling the two ships). And of course Hetoreyn doing the music.

“Space: The Final Frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Her ongoing mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new lifeforms and new civilizations, To Boldly Go Where No One Has Gone Before.”

[thereclaimer]

Loved the music & sound effects perfecto!

[UniqueModelCreations]

Love the video!! I really appreciate that your work allows us to see both ships in full glory, with slow passes, like original Trek movies of old, showing the beauty of the ships as characters and not just the ships the cast were flying around in! Great Work!!!
