That looked great! The emitters were on point. That's one thing that the Klingons and Romulans had over the Federation, was fire power. Not that the Federation would ever want to be aggressors, but if you're going to have weapons to defend yourself, defend aggressively and if necessary, devastatingly.
This is awesome! As much as I love TOS, it always irked me that they were the only ones with blue shipboard phasers. Enterprise phase cannons were orange. TNG onward the phasers are orange. Making it match other Treks is nice to see for a change.
I like the semi-pulse version very similar to Wrath of Khan... I like that barrage effect, always seemed stronger than the steady blue lines of the original series.
@@josephastier7421 True, but for circa 1965-67 what they did was cutting-edge stuff for a weekly network TV show. Besides, how many other TV series can say their studio miniature - almost sixty years later - commands a place of honor at the freakin Smithsonian Air & gal-darn Space Museum?! 😊
As someone who would like to see props over CG, something about this just works. The ship doesn't look so flat like other attempts (especially the TOS ship replacements). There's a subtle sheen from the surround lighting, the phasers cast a glow and the lighting itself is very dynamic. I've dabbled in a bit of 3D myself and had an epiphany one day: You can be the best 3D modeler in the world, but your work is nothing without great lighting.
Scott. I have been following your effects for years. Two things: 1) These are probably the best phaser representations I have seen in a long time. These just look -- - powerful. Something that was always lacking, I felt, even on TOS. These just feel "stronger". I also love the multiple firing from multiple ports. Your representation here makes the Constitution Class starship seem much more a force to be reckoned with. And as always, your renders are just about the best on the internet. 2) Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, finish the Doomsday Machine. Or redo it again. Yours was the absolute, 100% best version I have ever seen, blowing away the Paramount effects, which of course are leaps and bounds above TOS, but yours wee leaps and bounds above those. Consider this sincere admiration for your craft. Or, can you let me know why the Doomsday Machine has vanished from online? Thanks Scott! Top notch work!
It disappeared because it was only half-completed and it wasn't up to snuff as far as I was concerned. And don't worry, it *is* being worked on. All of these test videos are part and parcel of that project. Thanks for watching!
@@ScottGammans Scott, it may sound crazy but I am so thrilled that you are working on it. I really liked your version - your updates are great too - keep them coming!
The best phaser representations are in StarFleet Command 1&2 (the standard phaser as well as the more powerful gattling laser). They feel so impactful!
That was the most intense 41 seconds of Star Trek fan content I've ever seen! I love the classic phaser discharge personally but your version seemed much more badass.
The sequence at 0:20 is my favorite. Reminds me of the Egg Viper from Sonic Adventure DX. I can imagine Commodore Decker firing at the planet killer being like: "Get a load of this!"
This was absolutely wonderful!!! The music, sound FX, and the rendering of the Enterprise were ALL top notch!!!! Whatever it is you're doing, do NOT stop!!!
Dude!! Half the original episodes are Star Trek should have been just THIS!! Well Done! Now please do another video like this where the Enterprise is destroying Wesley Crusher's shuttle craft😂😂😂
I think the short bolts work better. They give the impression that these are fast and powerful, but can only shoot a couple of seconds before overloading.
"Gunnery, Conn combat, give then a boardside. Full sustainment fire. All batteries execute." "Roger that, all cannons configured for sustained fire, all batteries engaging now."
The cannon ports were in the middle of the disc, with one bank actually being considered both the top and bottom emitters. Two banks per location. What you have here though, is downright SEXY. Makes my inner geek smile.
LOL! I wouldn’t go anywhere near that far. I’m just a silly old man who has been staring at the Starship Enterprise and her sister ships for 50 years now.
@@ScottGammans It's nice to see humility in a person. That said, given the current state of Star Trek, I _would_ go that far. It's almost like the current showrunners are on a deliberate campaign to destroy the franchise's legacy and reputation. (ｰ_ｰ;) In any case, the portrayal of the weapons here is fantastic: both logical and visually interesting.
@@AnimeSunglasses _"Because no one wants to pay TV writers to actually think about tactics..."_ They'll happily pay the media to promote their nonsense, though. 😒
The great Sol Kaplan! He wrote (in my opinion) the best scoring of the series in this episode. Unfortunately, it was so good that the producers reused it over and over and OVER in subsequent episodes, dulling its impact.
I agree with everyone. Nice work. I like option one as I like playing things closer to the original while I do appreciate that the beams feel powerful.
Pretty good man. I like how the phasers are aimable to come to the center for the two forward facing ports. The TOS always showed them diverting to a degree that you could never hit a target with both beams at once.
@@pex_the_unalivedrunk6785 Roddenberry said in an interview that he got the idea from exactly that. Well, no, he didn't actually say that, but it would make sense if he did.
@@pex_the_unalivedrunk6785 Exactly! In addition the whole "Photon Torpedo" problem is still there.. A Photon Torpedo is an matter-antimatter explosive device with a std yield of about 65 MEGATONS!! ALL the shows except TOS show them as literal duds. Sad lack of continuity.
@@Brian-pz3wh for real, they just punch holes through the ships like a timed fuse or proximity fuse didn't go off. It would be neat to see photon torpedoes actually work the way they're meant to. Heheh, imagine a HiSHE (how it should have ended) doing Star Trek II TWOK, during Khan's initial attack when he fires that last torpedo and Kirk says, "Hang On!" And then they edit in the self destruct scene of the bridge and half the saucer blowing up, LoL!
This is beautiful work, Scott. You deserve a lot more attention for your excellent work! I actually like the first three. The glow from the phaser turrets is unique and quite exciting! I love the effect!
Just to recap, the effect was achieved by rendering the phasers in two passes: Pass #1, the phasers are emitted right out of the _Constellation_ turrets, so that the beams can light up the ship and you can see the reflections of the beams on the ship's hull, but there is no extra "glow" applied to the light emitters in this pass. Pass #2 duplicates the pass #1 camera, ship, and phaser bolt movements precisely, only in this pass the starship is completely matte black (so that the ship itself blocks the viewer's view of the beams from the proper angles) against a matte black background. In other words, the phaser bolts are now the only visible things in this pass, and the only light emitters. This allowed me to turn up the glow and bloom on the phasers to make them super "hot". It was then just a matter of compositing pass #2 on top of pass #1. Thanks to the matte black starship in pass #2, whenever the _Constellation_ herself blocks your view of the phasers they're blocked, but otherwise you get the nice glowy phasers in the unified composition.
That’s a darn good question, that I have never figured out a way to visually explain with my little movies. If you think of something, let me know and maybe I will incorporate it and give you the credit for the inspiration! (and just to clarify that mumbled sentence, you will definitely get credit if I use your idea… right now the main thing I need to do is just get back to doing *anything* on this project!)
excellent. The first I have seen to use actual details from the original ship. The shading of hull plating and deflector grids all in place. Well done sir
Great job! I think it's the glow around the core of the phaser beam that really sells it. The beams don't look "drawn in." (Good thing you don't have JJ Abrams directing this, "No, no! The Enterprise needs to have a HUNDRED phasers on it and they ALL need to be firing at once!")
The beams actually are physical objects that emit light and glow. I found it gave the best result in a GPU renderer like Octane; you can actually see the beams reflected in the deflector dish, and the beams contribute to the overall lighting of the scenes.
That rapid fire barrage looks really nice. That's my personal favourite. I think the 4 beam at the end is a bit too much. That is a gorgeous model of the Constitution class. It doesn't look flat like the TOS Remastered Enterprise. The effects seem to have a bit of punch to them, a bit of weight. It looks powerful, like if you get hit by them even in a Klingon D7 you'll feel it in your teeth. That's something that the effects teams for Discovery and Picard buggered up, the Phaser effects had no punch to them.
Like the title says, PEW PEW PEW PEW! :) be sure to check out the video where the Enterprise fires her blue phasers… a slightly different sound design there!
This highlights what sets phasers apart from disruptors or other weapons we see in the ST universe. They're versatile. They may not have the outright punch of other weapons but they can function at varying power levels, cover much wider firing arcs and track multiple targets. They're like universal beam emitters that can, among other things, be used as weapons.
I loved all the phasers lit up and charged. The Constellation had some serious weapons on her!! I love the firing from the different ports. The day this gets finished will be an awesome day! Christmas come early!!
It *is* funny without the context of seeing why the _Constellation_ is firing a volley like this. This video was only a test of the phasers alone and nothing more; when the final full scene is published it hopefully won't be quite as amusing. Thanks for stopping by!
It’s truly amazing (and disappointing) that he only scored two episodes for the series. (it’s also disappointing that he did such a good job the producers kept reusing this particular soundtrack multiple times the rest of the season.)
How I wish i had that skill!!! I need a Connie for the Yorktown NCC 1717. I need a Aeon time/scoutship coming out of a rift, circles the Yorktown as it tries to evade. The scout circles and forceably lowers the aft shields and lands in the bay. Then another view of a closing rift, when it reverses size and a larger Wells class timeship comes through and stops nose to nose with the Yorktown. I'm trying to get a teaser reel done so I can try crowd funding the film.
Reminds me of the Wrath of Kahn Phasers. The rapid fire burst fits with the refit phasers. The USS Constitution looks like it could have taken on a Borg Cube with that phaser power. Nice mix of ENT, TOS, and TWoK phasers.
I could see the Enterprise maneuvering like that while in a battle with say a fleet of three Klingon Battlecrusiers or an unknown enemy spaceship never before encountered.
I think they are all awesome - but I like the second pass the most. It keeps continuity going forward with how the phasers on the TMP Enterprise were displayed (almost like long bolts instead of a continuous stream).
Caught the 'rona and have been feeling out of sorts for about a month now. Hopefully I'll get back the energy to sit in front of my workstation for hours at a time to finish this! Thanks for stopping by.
The barrage is precisely what any tabletop tactical simulation (SFB or FASA) would entail, so it won't seem foreign to gamers, only television/movie fans. "Fire everything that bears!"
Rewatch the non-remastered TDD episode. Both ships fired orange phasers. The show was notorious for the ever-changing look of the ship depending on which VFX house was working the episode that week.
THAT was better than ALL of discovery and picard combined... Of course in reverse with benny hill music would be better than both of those combined but still. That was awesome to watch!
1. Phasers should be blue, according to Original Series canon. 2. Bussard fans are turning the wrong way (should be rotating inboard from the top). 3. Beam divergence in examples 1-3 appears far too wide for firing at a single target at any appreciable range. 4. Work on the lighting - an HDRI environment map with a strong primary and secondary fiil-light source perhaps?
Rapid fire would be useful against smaller fighters and probably more energy efficient. We didn't see smaller fighters in TOS, but then again there's a lot of ship designs they didn't have budget for.
"Direct hit!"
...
"It just... bounced off."
I could watch a video of Starships doing phaser runs all day. Beautiful work.
