Because in the episode,they used an old AMT Enterprise model,for the Constellation shots,and the modeler (sucked) lol.My 12 year old could have done better than that.

and why does my window keep signing me out after 5 minutes,and i have to sign in again?

Or, you may still have old SFM cookies. I deleted mine and then it stopped signing me out.

Well, I don't want you guys to think I abandon the effort.

I'm having a glitch where my effect repeats itself halfway through the scene, so I've got to track that down and correct it but this will give you an idea.

The reason for the departure from the effect in the series is Kirk's like that follows the effect:

"That's increadible. The star in this system is still intact. Only a nova could destroy like that."

I wanted to show that the star was still intact.

Tell me what you think. Is it too much?

looks good to me. The rubble looks like its been around for ages though cause it's all rounded.

Definitely badass, dude. So, the Enterprise bridge is from the episode and the stuff on the viewer is what you added, correct?

Interesting take on that. My feeling was the exact opposite but for the very reasons you cited! The rubble was made within the last few days but I'm assuming when the planet explodes or collapses that it will be mostly magma. The globs would cool and I have VERY few impact craters on the asteroids.

Perhaps I should reconsider.

Thanks for looking in and thanks for the comments!

You got that 100% correct. Even the blue screen outline is the original and only the content of the screen is new.

The quality of the original footage varies wildly during the 5 second shot (ugh) so I was thinking of creating a bridge section in 3D with the screen and posting what I want onto the virtual set. Of course, that would be a lot of work but then again, so was this! LOL!

All the compositing was done in TrueSpace 4.3. I love that version of TrueSpace!

Awesome. You could always use SeanR's bridge set and include him in the credits.

True, if he would allow it!
