    Trek Shorts is proud to present a fan film love letter, to the love letter that was OTOY's "Unification" Short film. • 765874 - Unification (4K) This was made by passionate and talented film makers and Trek Alumni and we at Trek Shorts dropped everything to
    craft an ambitions "Prologue" story of sorts. While Unification has a certain level of...ambiguity...we wanted to put forward our vision for what would have come...before.
    This is the return of Samuel Cockings as multiple ages of Will Davis and a ambitions use of stock footage and CGI digital doubles to bring the Character of "Yor" into this film as the lead character.
    Yor, a temporal cold war agent who was born in the Kelvin Timeline has been summoned to New Vulcan in his home timeline. While there, the dying Spock has one last request, to see his old frind, James T Kirk, once again. Yor must travel universes and through time to track down Kirk and
    allow him to be there at the end of Spocks Journey, as we see in Unification.
    A BIG Thank you to the OTOY "Render Network" for giving us access to a high end render platform which allowed us to create elaborate sequences in a fraction of the time it would have taken us on our home PC's. The scale of the Daystrom sequences are entirely down to the Render Network, thank you!
    Thank you to Dennis Choo for creating these amazing hero TNG uniforms for Samuel and Steven.
    A big thank you to Tobias Richter, without his true talent as a CGI model maker, we would not have been able to bring the Kelvin Enterprise D, Excelsior Class and Runnabout to life at the quality we did!
    Thank you to everyone who supported the 2021 & 2022 Trek Shorts Indiegogo along with 2023 & 2024 Gofund me and now Patreon! Without your funding we would not have been able to get these films made. If you enjoyed this film then put a comment down below!

    Very compelling narrative Sam, easy to follow and loved the transitions between decades, the Nerendra Class D was awesome, and the effects were superb. Really liked Yor's fades in and out and the focus/lack of focus in shots, the detail and closeups, it was all honestly fantastic. A fitting tribute to Unification, to Star Trek and to OTOY's work, I hope they see this and love it as much as we do

      ​@SGUDistantHope what's sad is when the first Excelsior was shown a lot of people didn't like it. I personally have always been a fan of the design.

  • @PsychoStreak
    @PsychoStreak Месяц назад +13

    Nice! I like the slightly off development with the Ambassador prototype being the Enterprise-D.
    Makes sense, and opens up speculation that this is the event that collapses the Kelvin timeline.
    The detailing on the ships was very good. The Excelsior class was nice and sharp and well lit - something we don't see enough of.

      @ In my opinion your Trek Shorts are one of the two greatest Star Trek fan filmmaking ventures ever. It’s you and Axanar at the zenith!
      The use of CGI was the best I have seen from you so far. Also, your aging and de-aging is flawless. And I always love to see father and son acting together.
      You are really making great Star Trek and I can’t wait for the next one.
      Excellent work!

    I enjoyed this. It has been made clear by the creator of this film that “Time is the fire in which we burn” by seeing Garry Mitchell observing all of time in the form of Fire itself. My feeling is that it will all work out. Kirk will live on through Project Phoenix.

    This is very well done. The ships in both universes looked great. Loved the shifting of the timelines along with the references to Captain Sisko and Spock. I always thought it was horrible writing to kill off Captain Kirk. You don't kill iconic heroes. Your short film along with Unification goes a long way to right those wrongs. Thank you and Happy Holidays.

I also love the way that one of the suddenly more-important (in a way) characters, that fans are really engaging with was born of both Discovery and the Kelvin Timeline. To me, this really shows that having people with the right heart makes all the difference to Trek (and other franchises).

      Technically, you can see more of it, in Star Trek Online. The ship is called the Narendra Class Support Cruiser, and was originally supposed to be the class of ship, that the Enterprise-C was going to be, in early seasons, of TNG, cause it was on the ships, that the Enterprise was named.

      Thanks so much! We are currently massively over budget on our current set of films and need to go ahead with our $30,000 goal indiegogo very early next year to ensure we dont have to just, pause for many months. Due to the and the...more...ambiguous nature of Unification, it would not feel 100% right to go further into it. Besides, you can do so much with limited quality CG versions each character, i think we pushed it about as far as we can go.
      Support or next Indiegogo or us regularly on Patren to ensure we can bring more films to the audience.

    Thank you for a visually lyrical film that worked very well with the music.
    Yor makes me think of a creepy Yoda, but he’s very intriguing. Thanks for keeping him so mysterious.
    Loved the D of the Kelvin timeline. I was eagerly anticipating the name reveal and was happily rewarded, thanks!
    One question-I saw Nick in the credits as Hunter but didn’t notice him in the film, so I guessed I missed him. That has happened to me missing him a few times in these shorts (which I’ve really loved them all!)
    I was really happy to see Lt Cmdr Davis make a quip or two about the time travels of Yor. And I really enjoyed seeing you and your dad in the same scene, but I’d love for the next step to happen and you both obviously being in the same shots.
    Nonetheless, thanks for another outstanding film! You’ve rocked the Galaxy again!

    On a similar note (and kinda of topic) it always bothered me how there wasn't an Enterprise between 2344 and 2363 why wait so long to make another, why wasn't the D just another Ambassador like the A was just another Constitution
    And who was the flagship during that time?

    @ManAtDeskProductions Месяц назад +3

    Interesting. There are a few really neat details in this - I especially love the Alt-D from the opening. As a prologue to Unification from Yor’s perspective, it’s perhaps a touch sparse on details of who he is and why he, of all people, is doing this - conversely, “sparse on details” is probably best, since over-explaining would get in the way of the visuals (and likely be impossible given tech constraints and, frankly, the lack of canon on the Temporal Wars and Yor’s part in it).
    Those tech constraints are perhaps a touch more apparent in this piece than in other works you’ve done - a couple of the Yor close-up shots don’t quite stand up, and the walk cycle is a touch basic. I found myself reminded - not unpleasantly, mind you - of Star Trek: Elite Force 2 there. That being said, the effects work generally is up to the usual standard, with solid interior work and beautiful ship flybys - the bridge crewman in the back of the Intrepid bridge is an especially nice detail, and an improvement on the background CGI extras sometimes seen in these films. The darker bridge and out-of-focus probably helps mask it a touch better: the TNG bridge does, by virtue of brightness, expose the CGI for what it is a little more, but I point that out more as an observation than a criticism: I doubt there are many fan films that could do sharper work there.
    A note I’m confused on - is Yor fulfilling a request Spock made _in general_, or of him specifically? Ambassador Spock’s death being in the 23rd century of the Kelvin timeline suggests the former, but the narration isn’t clear. Again, chalk that up to time and tech constraints.
    Overall, getting this out in both short order and good condition is an impressive achievement - there’s much to be very proud of here in effects and storytelling, and it serves well as a love letter to Unification.

    Although I disagree with the story. The idea that section 31 stealing Kirk's body and reviving him is not very good story telling. Honestly, a better solution would of been to pull him out of the Nexus again (you never leave the nexus) or have the one God like being from "where no man has gone before" bring him back to life. He is shown floating in space in front of a sun.

This felt very personal and i felt we got to know them a litt.e
      I created a film in 6 days as a reaction to Prodigy being cancelled, and in 9 days after Lower Decks was Cancelled.
      I am able to react to content which Newley comes out/or news...this does mean that i put aside any paying work and spend the massive time and sometimes budget to get these filmed for the fans.
      This was conceived and created since Unification came out...madness aye!
