STAR TREK V - NEW VFX 9 - THE GREAT BARRIER
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 ноя 2021
- Now this is the first part I created in 2021. The great barrier in the original was pretty bad. But what should be used instead of it ? I decided to try some space footage for the background animation. It looks not really like "a great barrier" but it gets a realistic style and I like these visuals. I also used recordings of real space nebulae for the representation of Sha-Kaa-Ree.
I hope you like my interpretation.
In 2012 I started creating new VFX scenes for Star Trek V. I will now gradually put these online here.
The aim was to design the look, the camera perspectives and the movements in the style of the 80s.
Have fun watching

I ran into the Director of Star Trek V …Years ago on the set of Boston Legal. I told William Shatner that Paramount should Hire ILM a and redo the visual effects, as they did for Star Trek: The Motion Picture. William Shatner told me then..that Paramount didn’t want to spend the extra money on Star Trek V.
Seems like more of a nebula cloud than a barrier, one that one could have just steered around. Visuals still look nice though.
Hmmm. While your barrier is prettier, it's much less dynamic and looks like a random nebula with occasional lightning. Your Sha Ka Ree is pretty decent and looks mysterious, but I think I preferred that bizarre planet we originally got. I appreciate all the work you must have done, and it's better than I could do, but I didn't get much of a sense that spacefarers would have been reluctant to go, or found the planet particularly interesting.
Really beautiful work!
anyone remember the TNG episode where Barkley gets super smart and sends them to this exact place and they meet another 'God' complete with flowing white beard?
The novelization approached this much more sensibly - it mentions Sybok instructing (Scotty IIRC?) to modify the shields... which the Klingons, who are shadowing the Enterprise, notice and do as well, hence why they can also cross the Barrier
I feel bad that I've only just discovered your channel!
Ever since I read the novelisation of this film, I've wanted to change this particular scene. In the movie, Sybok comes across as a real fruitloop, but the book references his mind being influenced from afar by the false God's thoughts. I've always felt that after Sybok says "Given to me by God," a split-second image of the planet followed by an equally quick glimpse of "God", foreshadowing what we'd see later in the film, would convey that this "vision" was being purposely sent to Sybok. Then we cut back to "He waits for us on the other side."
Do you think such a tiny edit would work, and show the false God's influence over Sybok? 🖖
AWESOME
👍👍
Nice to see you guys are back!
RIP David Warner...
Why won't the studio allow ST5 to be improved with modern f/x and restoring some 10-12 minutes of dialogue, to flesh out the story? Seems to me it would be a money maker for the studio.
In reality, there is a sort of "great barrier" at the center of the galaxy. The central hub of the Milky Way contains a huge number of stars, quasars, black holes, gas, etc., packed close together, all exerting various forces (gravity, EM radiation, etc.) on one another, making it a very dangerous region of space.
Given that they're working on a 4K restoration of the TMP Director's Cut right now, I don't see why this film can't receive the same treatment. And it really should be done while William Shatner is still with us and can participate. STV really isn't a bad film, it's the bad VFX
@@richardjohnson9543 Agreed. The FX are poor and there is a bit too much corny humor for my taste but I guess some people like the humor. But I'd like to really to 10-12 minutes restored where we learn more background to the events happening in the story. Thanks!
This movie had such great potential ... only to be ruined by petty jokes, bad writing, and REALLY obvious plot holes.
Anyways.
VERY cool concept. Making layers of deep space images move to make it look 3D was awesome.
Sadly, the overall look is like that of a nebula. BUT .... you weren't given much to work with either.
that was really cool will you be adding these sequences to the original movie so people can watch in full ?
Very well done. But what does God need with a starship

"You didn't answer his question, what does God need with a starship?"

People often forget how plagued the shooting of this film was. They lost half the budget, the companies they hired couldn't deliver the SFX in time... or at all... or anything better than subpar ones, therefore the script had to change on a daily basis... and tha release date couldn't be change to give them time to salvage the movie (curiously, kind of the same problems the first film went through... or the List In Apace feature film, actually).
1000% better than what was actually in the film. Good job!
As much as I disliked the old "Great Barrier" SFX because it was clearly colors being dumped in liquid, I don't think this is an improvement. The actual Sha-Ka-Ree planet looked very mysterious with it's strange ghostly aura; I never had a problem with that. I really appreciate the effort this took; I think conceptually it is a little off.
Ok but at the same time this is a step in the right direction for a special edition to be made it’s an improvement compared to the new Star Trek Bullshit we have been getting lately cause unfortunately Star Trek is dead cause of all the new stuff with the tv series & the remakes have been bad too so I have to disagree with u on this one cause the original series with William Shatner will always be the best
Wonderful.
The Great Barrier Looks Like Storm At Sea in space
Nice one. Chalk and cheese.
Always enjoy your videos and appreciate the hard work. I don't like disrespecting ST:V as it has already had a ton of hate over the many years. But wow...that original scene with the Enterprise approaching the camera was incredibly bad. It is such a beautiful model and such a shame they couldn't have treated it better. Great work giving the Enterprise her beauty back.
Fortis Fortuna Adiuvat!!
how does someone get hold of you for a project (movie) that I am producing (Christian faith based syfy action adventure). your home page here doesn't have an contact info...
Brilliant
Great.
I mean, yeah it looks better but that wasn’t the problem with that picture.
Nice! But I do miss the blue swirling chaos... if you could have some motion in your barrier?
The first shot of the original barrier is fine, but the second phase was lame as all hell lol
At the very least though, the band of stars shouldn't have just passed overhead, considering how long they remained in view as they approached at warp, y'know? :P
@@k1productions87 Yes, the "band of stars" was terrible. The "storm cloud is space" swirl I liked... it had a speilberg cloud quality, reminiscent of Close Encounters. But then they added the nonsensical band of stars, and on the edges there's this blue border that looks like dried glue. Ugh.
@@bigfootfound5301 The band of stars was only bad because it just shifted out of view as they approached. If it instead grew larger as they approached (you know... like far away objects do) and perhaps those "stars" were discharging energy between them, creating the barrier in question... it would make more sense.
In fact,.. I'd like to see HIKE run with that idea.
@@k1productions87 Yes, agreed
Wow, this is great! I genuinely loved that movie, even though the effects were horrible.
I like the start and the end, but the transition and the passing through the barrier are not really well executed. The original, while being clearly wafting colours in liquid, at least gave it a sense of thickness and density that was challenging to pass through.
Your Special Effects made this a better movie than those asinine cheap Special Effects back then.
Paramount should hire you to redo the Special Effects for a proper Directors Cut of Star Trek V.
Beautiful work!
Much better than the original! Congratulations!
If the effects were updated like this then the movie would be good but the old effects really ruins the film
Some of u on here feel that these new effects aren’t necessary but at the same time this is a step in the right direction for a special edition to be made it’s an improvement compared to the new Star Trek Bullshit we have been getting lately cause unfortunately Star Trek is dead cause of all the new stuff with the tv series & the remakes have been bad too so I have to disagree with u on this one cause the original series with William Shatner will always be the best
Mr Shatner will be very upset to see what he could have had for 1/4 the price!!
In the original series, the ship went through overloads of many systems. Now nothing but some vibrations?
wrong barrier
I am wondering if it would be possible to get a copy of Star Trek V with your enhanced VFX ?
I remembered Star Trek V had bad reviews because of the cheesy affects. The reason for this is because of lack in man power, most of the special affects crew was working on the Ghost Busters II film that same year.
They lost ILM for the first time in the Trek movie franchise
All I can say I Captain Janeway should have brushed up on Kirk's ways of speeding through space. " From earth to the center of the galaxy, in a matter of days". By Captain James T.Kirk.
Very well done; I would say this is a vast improvement on the original SFX.
Now, if only someone could do something about the dialogue! 😂
Star Trek V was ahead of its introduction time...they don't who said Star Trek V wasn't good they actually introduced the Cytherians to the Star Trek world...in this case...a rogue Cytherian...would everyone agree with that 😀
Is it just me or did insurrection borrow a LOT from this score?
Jerry Goldsmith composed both scores. He did Motion Picture, Final Frontier, First Contact, Insurrection, and Nemesis. And they all have that distinctive Goldsmith flavor
Nope
This movie gets a lot of hate thrown at it, But I much prefer it to
ST IV which I think is just boring and overrated IMO!🤔🙄
Older is better in this case.
Sorry, the original is much better. This looks like generic YT space docu FX... And still no sign of Sagitarius A* there. I know the SMBH was discovered a few years later in 1993, but you redo the FX, it should be there 🙂 But still nice...
Ok but at the same time this is a step in the right direction for a special edition to be made it’s an improvement compared to the new Star Trek Bullshit we have been getting lately cause unfortunately Star Trek is dead cause of all the new stuff with the tv series & the remakes have been bad too so however I agree with u on this one cause the original series with William Shatner will always be the best but a small remastering won’t hurt as long as they don’t go to far
Bad.
This is far superior to what was created for the finished film. Why Paramount never let Shanter correct the visuals is beyond me. When you watch the DVD and the visuals in the menu are better than what's in the film you damn well know you have a problem.
Nope
