Enterprise Leaves Spacedock with James Horner Score - Star Trek VI - The Undiscovered Country

- I've been wanting to do this animation for years.
This is originally a scene from Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, that I re-edited with animations and re-scored with James Horner's brilliant soundtrack titled "Genesys Destroyed" from the complete score of Star Trek III: The Search for Spock.
I always felt that, given that The Undiscovered Country was the final journey of the Enterprise, her final departure from Spacedock into adventure was a bit "low-key". The Enterprise has always been a character for herself, and giving her some moments to shine in her departure to her final voyage would have been great.
Around 2010 I did the cover of the Ships of the Line 2011 calendar ( memory-beta.fandom.com/wiki/S... ), which I later turned into a tiny little animation ( • Star Trek - Ships of t... ). Somewhere around the same time I came across the complete soundtrack for The Search for Spock, and when I heard the track "Genesys Destroyed", I immediately had the vision for this animation in mind.
When I sat down to do a quick edit, the score and the live action scenes fit like a glove.
1521 hours of rendering 16854 frames later, we're finally here.
Modeling, Texturing, Animation, Lighting & Rendering all done in Newtek LightWave 3D
Multipass Compositing done in Adobe After Effects
Re-editing, sound editing and sound effects in Adobe Premiere and Adobe Audition
Thanks (in no particular order) to Alain Rivard, IRML, Matt Christou, Alexander Klemm, David Metlesits, Kevin Riley and everyone I forgot to mention for their help, support and their sharing of fantastic 3d models that I could put inside my Spacedock model.
Long story short: enjoy!

A nice reminder that 1/4 impulse is still bloody fast.
Is Full impulse equivalent to the speed of light?
@@troyx9459 Full impulse is 1/4 the speed of light in the Voyager Technical manual. So 1/4 impulse is pretty dang fast like this. But the series depictions of impulse changes every time it's used.
If you remember that scene in Star Trek 60 Undiscovered Country where the Enterprise jumps out of Warp to go to orbit at kithomer? The speed she was going at must have been full impulse. That's impressive too
Enterprise leaving Spacedock on 1/4 impulse was the equivalent of Kirk burning rubber out of the parking lot. He does it so often, I bet spacedock control makes sure there are no ships just beyond the doors when Enterprise prepares to depart.
Absolutely! One thing that grates with the stealing the Enterprise scene is that at one quarter impulse they would have crashed into the doors in the time it took Kirk to say Scotty. I would re-dub it but Stiles says it too. I suppose could edit out the word impulse maybe and take Kirk's thrusters from TMP?
The money shot is the thrusters firing and the ship turning around, wow. That captures the scale of the ship and its movement perfectly. I love this.
Agreed 👍
Oh yes, I completely agree! This is what I'm missing so much in all the "nu trek" they simply dont understand anymore that the Ships and how they are presented is such an important aspect of Star trek... It has ben said so often, but I't seemingly can't be said enough: The ships in ST are - so to say - characters of their own and should be given as much attention as every other member of the main cast :)
yeah, that was definitely the coolest bit!
@@florianN132 I think if there was anything to actually like about the JJ-Trek films is that he absolutely appreciated the sense of scale and personality that ships were supposed to have, even if everything else was pretty off the cuff and hyper-exaggerated.
The thrusters firing is my legit favorite part. Such a small detail yet it yields a massive payoff.
"You heard the order lieutenant" was absolutely Kirk's version of "Sorry Goose, but it's time to buzz the tower."
🤣🤣🤣
Well said.
Jim Kirk's career survived violating numerous orders, stealing a ship, scuttling the stolen ship...
What's one violation in Spacedock? 🙃
I wonder if the Spacedock traffic control officer spilled his coffee as Enterprise zipped out of there.
@@samspeed6271 I mean he only blew out of there at around 41.7 million mph lol
I love that "one quarter impulse" finally gets put into perspective. In the original, it seemed like they went out the doors pretty casually. I was always like "what's the big deal? why would regulations require you to go even slower than this?"
But impulse engines have always kinda been described as being fast. Crazy fast for something that *isn't* warp speed. The way it's depicted here, both the regulation and Valeris' hesitation make much more sense. Starfleet's basically like "Do not peel out of spacedock. You will end up smashing your ship into the space door or clipping another ship or worse. Unless you're James Kirk. Then you just do whatever the hell you want, we guess."
Star Trek equivalent of Maverick buzzing the tower.
That...and it explains all the cadets around the bridge grinning when Valeris finally says "aye sir"
Those are enlisted crew members
I don't know why, but I read this in CinemaSins guy's voice
I know speeds in Star Trek can be iffy far as what it what but I think in the the tech manual full impulse is is 1/4 the speed of light. Which is plenty for zooming around a star system. So that would make 1/4 impulse 11,00 miles a second. So crazy speeds. This seems like an accurate depiction of what that would be like
OK, the shot of her turning on thrusters in Spacedock made my jaw hit the floor.
Even the nice touch of that little 'deflection crystal' at the top of the engine mounts lighting up..
My reaction also, must have repeated that scene 20 times...LOL
Wonderful! Your depiction brings back the feeling of size, power and majesty I've not seen since the Drydock scene in ST-TMP. I first watched that scene just a day or two after visiting CVN-65, walking down the pier she was moored to. I easily could believe the Starship was every bit as big and massive as the Carrier Enterprise.
The Constitution Refit is still my favorite version of Enterprise with the 1701E a close second. You've treated this Lady well.
The Enterprise refit is the most beautiful ship in all of science-fiction.
Honestly, Paramount should bring Cliff Eidelman back to rescore this scene so it matches the rest of the soundtrack (although the Horner STIII score is perfect) and insert THIS version in a remaster.
Just fantastic work.
Of all the fan made renditions and edits I've encountered in my travels, this was the most... human.
The needs of the one out way the needs of the many !!
"most... human."
What does that even mean? Or you just meant "the coolest looking"? 🤣
@@Jason75913 not a true fan are you? Wrath of Khan ring a bell?
@@coreymartin5185 What does _Wrath of Khan_ have to do with this besides the music?
@@Jason75913 the line that the op quoted, ffs, if a person has to explain it.
The sound of the main deflector coming online. Goosebumps! 😮❤
Everytime. 😊
Yes! It’s amazing. I had to rewatch it like 10 years already and still can’t get enough
I think the sound used for that may have been built from Godzilla's atomic breath.
@@agerothn Doubtful, being a Big G freak I’d be surprised if this was the case. However, it’s an amazing sound regardless.
So much to love about this video!
I believe the correct term for this is "starship phonography". The thrusters being used, the deflector dish powering up, the damn thing BOOSTING out of spacedock... just. just beautiful.
That was agreeable to watch!
Brilliant!
you must be very proud to get pinned! ...
@@akjackhd5804 lol
@@akjackhd5804 "I don't believe so sir."
I agree.
This puts great context in Kirk's praise that Valeris piloted the Enterprise well out of spacedock. The original portrayal looked like pretty straight forward flying.
"I've always wanted to try that!"
That scene should have been appended here.
That, and the scene where crewmen in engineering were wondering what the hell they were doing, while Scotty is thoroughly enjoying it.
@@mattbartley2843 Really? I took it more as shock at what Scotty was able to pull off.
The original just looks like a standard departure with aft thrusters. This really does look like one quarter impulse power.
Isn't that kind of the point of steering out of space dock in a good way? To go straight instead of, idk, zigzagging and crashing against a wall?
@@coloradoing9172 So you’ve seen Galaxy Quest!
You did this scene and the movie justice. I would love to see the whole movie re-edited and animated like this. Incredible work.
want a link to just that?
@@markcraig5974 I want that link!
@@markcraig5974yes please !! 😂😂
@@wayneskelding3412 i sent you a link
Absolutely! This was awesome.
It’s absolutely amazing how much VFX tools have improved since 1991. But, tools alone don’t make a scene this good. The scale, pacing, and angles were all superb. Truly a work of art.
the play of light across the engineering hull as the Starship comes about to face doors......its just perfection
@@Wolfe351 Those are the RCS Thrusters.🤓😅 I am such a nerd.
And you just can't beat good character development. The central characters had been making television shows and movies for nearly three decades at this point. I love Uhura's head shake/tsk-tsk/wry smile response when Valeris quotes departure protocols to Kirk. She has clearly seen that done more than once before. Undiscovered Country was a fantastic homage to the original crew. What a journey they took us on!
I absolutely loved her coming about and the deflector coming online. What a gorgeous shot.
It felt...REAL.
Yup. Gave me goosebumps and I was only watching it on an iPhone 6 Plus's screen lol
I agree! I'm besides myself! I can't stop watching it!
And the sound it made... like Godzilla waking up.
The beauty of it all I'm not crying your crying!
The music, the timing... the integration of the effects with the acting... this is an absolute masterpiece. This is not just reworking effects for effects' sake. This was a reinvention of the entire scene. Absolutely magnificent.
AMEN !!
🤌
That really captures my thoughts as well. As much as I admire the folks who have been able to "duplicate" the original model work with computers, this is one of the few I've seen to really properly "reimagine" was this sequence could be with modern computing hardware. I am now spoiled.
Absolutely brilliant. Could not agree with you more.
James Horner always did absolutely top notch work for star trek.
If they hadn't pissed him off, he'd a done them all.
@@TheMadMonk9How did they piss him off?
James was at his BEST when he did star trek.
Uhura’s “oh hell no she didn’t just say that!” expression was hilarious! The whole bridge crew turned around with “oh crap” looks on their faces! 😂😂😂😂
I didn't catch that the first 50 times I watched this! 😂😂😂
Even the redshirts in the background turned round 😀
Love how you made it explicitly apparent that leaving space dock at 1/4 impulse is very much “buzzing the tower.” Awesome!
Kirk really is the type who would gun it out of the garage, just for the hell of it
God DAMMIT Kirk
Yeah, now that you mention it, most of the movies never really made it clear just how fast impulse power could drive the ship. The only thing I can readily think of is actually is either I or II (can’t recall which), when they showed the planets whipping by on the way out of solar system at full impulse (IIRC)
@@rmTheWalrus 1/4 Impulse in the Star Trek technical manual is about 18,665 km/s.
@@Ami-vh7sr Which is ~41.752 *million* miles an hour
Star Trek 3's soundtrack is so under appreciated. Way to go on giving it a "new life"
I don't think Star Trek would be what it is without Jame Horner's work.
Check out a vid called "why Wrath of Khan has the best space battle ever". It really showcases how much he knew and what to do.
Star Trek Soundtracks are the reason people LIVE prove me wrong
This was truly worthy of James Horner's singularly brilliant score.
These scene never gets old. Still a beautiful ship 😢
The best looking ship in Star Trek
From every angle. It's just not possible to take a boring picture of the Enterprise. I have admired her since I was a child in the 70s.
How this doesn't have a million views already is beyond me. A travesty even
The biggest thing for me is not just the obviously incredible CG work, but how much time you've spend making it look coherently as one, all the exterior shots match the source materials lighting styles and palettes. Might seem like a small thing, but damn, it makes all the difference. If I didn't know better I'd just assume this was a deleted scene.
It's funny you say that I thought it was a deleted scene the first time I watched it too. Fantastic.
Me too
Same here! 😉
There's even a Right-Way-Up-Reliant in the shot where they're lining up with the door. It was originally meant to have the nacelles above the saucer section.
That was something to see. a busy space dock, RCS thrusters being fired, and that departure *chef's kiss*
Tears at the memory of Star Trek. R I P.
Well it's 32 years since The Undiscovered Country was released, so when I settled down to watch this clip of that film, my first thought was, 'Funny, I don't remember that fantastic scene'. In the theatrical release, this was a non-event but your version sent tingles down my spine. Well done.
I was a young man when that movie came out. Now I am past middle age. Shatner is about the last one kicking and he is in his 90’s.
@@sartainja Shatner, Koenig and Takai. The rest are all gone ☹
@@sartainja I hope a) I make it to my 90s and b) I'm still kicking as well as him.
I didn't see it as a none scene. It's fun. Her trying to push regulations on the captain, it introduces the dynamic.
Goes to show you that effects were damn expensive back then. None of this new stuff was impossible then, just costly even for a major feature such as this. It would be awesome to revisit these films and update their effects.
Wow, i'm speechless. Rest Easy, members of the crew that we lost. Their spirit of discovery and exploration lives on in creators like you.
Well said, well said 👏 👍
Beautiful! Absolutely beautiful. Not only the Enterprise but the San Francisco background, ESD flyby and details and all the TMP era ships outside and inside Space Dock. Once again proving that the fandom loves Trek more than it’s owners. It would be wonderful to see such scenes in remastered versions of the movies. 🔥👏🏼
definitely need to hire this person to redo all of them. Just like the STTOS remaster with option of original and enhanced version to chose. Either way this was just wow.
The rights owners have always had a love hate relationship with Star Trek, they love for the money it makes but don't really like Star Trek fans all that much.
This is a massive improvement on the original, and that is saying a lot. I especially like the shot of the reaction control thrusters firing, but the gold medal shot is the 1/4 impulse rear view of Spacedock getting real small real fast, which puts into perspective just how fast impulse speeds really are.
I can't think of any scenes in the various Star Trek incarnations where the actually fast speed of impulse was shown in a way that we could grasp easily. This clip really demonstrates just how crazy fast impulse can be. And to think this was only 1/4 impulse speed! Just imagine if we had anything approaching the lower end of the speed of impulse right now today. People would be all over the Sol System exploring in person. Oh well, as Professor Farnsworth said, "A man can dream. A man can dream."
@@JerryFisher Exactly, and impulse doesn't have set numbers. full impulse for one ship might be 3/4 impulse on another due to size of ship, design, amount of impulse drives ect. In the TNG manual it states that the Enterprise D could reach Warp 1 velocities at maximum impulse which would be light speed, but unlike warp they would be susceptible to time dilation.
That would mean that for the Enterprise D 1/4 impulse could be around 168,000,000 MPH.
@@JerryFisher TMP shows off the speed of impulse, in fact when he gives the order for impulse, they do it in decimals of warp. There's less of a easy scale to see the speed, but it is there.
Beautifully done! When the main deflector dish powers up, you can really feel the ship coming to life.
When I was a kid and it was just "the blue light on the front", I always thought it looked like some great eye looking out upon the universe.
That ship still gives me goose bumps. As much a character of the series as the actors are. You did a magnificent job honoring her.
Same here. The Enterprise was the vessel of my generation's hope for a future among the stars.
Likewise. The attention to detail was outstanding.
She is a beauty.
This is my canon now. Absolutely stunning work. So many beautiful details! 🥺
I'm starting to consider fan productions more canon than what's being put out there "officially". Especially if this is the kind of quality I can look forward to!
I’ve watched this well over a dozen times, and I STILL grin from ear to ear like a giddy schoolboy EVERY time! 😁
I grew up on the original crew movies. That was MY Star Trek. The Constitution Class refit was MY Enterprise. And she’s never looked better! Thank you!!!
i still come back to watch this often, with sincere admiration, from one tuber to another
That's gorgeous! The sheer sense of heft she's got after that maneuvering thruster burn made my heart sing. And what a rush! Just flawless! Thank you so much.
Rather a bit like Starship Troopers' battlecruiser "swinging" around out of its spacedock parking spot. That was nicely done also!
Indeed still the only thing I actualy liked about this was how that manuvering thruster was used to turn the ship around 180 degrees. That ofc reminded me of how the ships in the reboot JJ Abrams film did a similar 180 degree turn in prep for warp in a similar way that 180 degree thruster turn from the tmp enterprise was quite well utilized :3 also forgive me for mentioning the reboot jj abrams film and the ships from there but the 180 thruster turn from the tmp enterprise Thruster reminded of that scene and the JJverse ships doin that.
This might be the best rendition of the Enterprise Refit, I've EVER seen. The turn/thrusters, the activation of the Deflector Dish and Sound, I've rewatched that like 10 times, and it gives me goosebumps each time. WELL Done.
This is what happens when the entire product is elevated - the visual quality, the cinematography, the proper use of music emotionally, tying it in with the actor's scenes, and still all operating within canon rules as far as the Constitution specs. On top of that, giving us tidbits we've never scene before. Fantastic. You can tell the creator loves the material. I would compare this to scene 38 re-imagined Vader/Kenobi fight as far as high quality fan-made productions go.
This is not the Enterprise Refit, this is the new Enterprise 1701-A after Refit was destroyed in Star Trek 3. It was the Yorktown but was redesigned Enterprise. They both look the exact same though from the exterior.
@@Firefyta2 I was alluding to the entire Constitution Class branch being Refit that happened in the early 2270s. This is clearly supposed to be “from” Star Trek VI, with the interspersed dialogue, so saying it was the 1701-A is kinda obvious.
Full impulse is .25 times the speed of light... so 1/4 impulse is still really, REALLY freaking fast. Kirk was basically peeling out in the parking lot.
Yeah, 1/4 impulse works out to 11,625 miles/second. Pretty freaking fast!!
This is wonderful!!! I loved seeing the activation of the thrusters and the movement of the ship under their influence. Showing the activation of the impulse drive was awesome also! This might be the first time I have seen an accurate portrayal of the speed that can be achieved under impulse power. What I read decades ago was that light speed can be achieved under impulse power. That looked like a relatively accurate depiction of one-quarter impulse while keeping that in mind.
That was nothing short of absolute perfection! As someone who grew up with the classic Trek films, this made me grin so hard my face hurt! The integration of James Horner’s score, the beauty shots of the shuttle, the detail on the Enterprise (her lights & the glimpses inside her through the windows, and - AT LAST! - her maneuvering thrusters in action!)…. And the Enterprise screaming out of Spacedock…! Thank you for this! I’ll be rewatching this a LOT,😁
dude, watch it with a VR headset. mind will be blown even more.
Agreed!
I love the shot at 2:55 you can see the big recreation/assembly room from "The Motion Picture" through those windows in the saucer section.
@@Felamine Alex3D's Enterprise model is just a brilliant piece of work. You can get it here: www.alex3d.at/downloads/classic-1701-a/
Seriously, I'm immensely impressed. I love how this really sells how reckless 1/4th impulse power really is.
If I were to have a critique, it would be I'm really missing the lights from the cities on the moon. :)
Or better yet, having the top person, who controls the comings and goings of ships, spilling a hot beverage all over themselves and swearing at Kirk. Like in the scenes they do in Top Gun, when they buzz the tower.
Seeing how full impulse is supposed to be 1/4 lightspeed (at least in TNG), 1/4 impulse is 1/16C. Or 11,243 miles per SECOND!
And yet, in ST3, Enterprise and Excelsior were supposed to be at 1/4 impulse during the theft of the former, despite both ships being depicted as moving at a leisurely pace.
@@shaun3423 Well, it doesn't mean they get there instantly, 'one quarter' is a throttle setting, not a speed per se.
Kirk gonna Kirk.
The Enterprise-A is still my favourite incarnation - great sequence. You should do the "stealing the enterprise" sequence from Search for Spock too - that would be awesome.
That was awesome, Great CGI, and the Star Trek III music was well sequenced in.
The launch out Space Dock is so perfect, I haven't seen a scene like that in ages. Excellent.
This remake literally changes the entire dynamic of that scene, from the music, to the exterior shots. Grand adventure vibes. Great job.
Completely agree, but I’d say inside spacedock ships should be smaller and numerous. That’s a huge spacedock tiny white windows indicate that so the traffic for that inside should be heavy and abundant
No reason for the ship to bank like that. It’s not an airplane. Takes away from how big they are.
It's impressive
@@YourFutureExwell if you really want to get into it nothing in Star Trek has really ever followed orbital mechanics even remotely
I really get a sense of the ship movements in this scene and how big and powerful this ship is. Great job.
Nice to see the RCS actually used. And the thrust from the impulse engines, very nice touch; the shot shows just how powerful those engines truly are.
Beautiful work. The film as originally presented didn't really show how nuts it is to engage the impulse engines in Spacedock. The novelization stated it, but couldn't really show it. Now the visual matches the text. Bravo!
Right? That sense of speed is only really on screen once in the movies that I can recall: in the first film, there's a rearward-facing image in the viewscreen as Enterprise powers away from Earth, and you remember that impulse power is supposed to get the ship to something not far from light speed. They never used to use the warp drive until clear of the solar system...
@@n.w.1803 the TNG TechMan states that Full Impulse is 1/4 Lightspeed. So 1/4 Impulse is 1/16C or 11, 243 MPS
@@shaun3423 Thanks!
I can't stop rewatching this. The way you conveyed the sheer scale of mass as the ship swings around is hypnotizing. The ignition of thrusters, thrum of the deflector energizing, and the amber glow of the impulse engines are all wonderful. The way you jumped between scales - from shuttle to starbase to starship - was seamless and truly made these objects enormous. Love the use of Horner's score and how you built anticipation and tension energy into this. Well done!
yeah, I'm with this too. this is a rare YT re-watcher 😀
I think i've watched this video at least once, every day since I've seen it. And every time I notice some new detail that I didnt the previous time. This is a truly marvelous piece of art.
Funny to see you here too, bro. Lolol
Enterprise and Enterprise A, two of the most beautiful lasses to ever grace the Stars…
James Horner is BOSS! I love this. I actually bought the TREK III sound track on audio cassette tape years ago !
I can't stop watching it. The visuals, the music... PERFECT 👌
The needs of the many.... are satisfied many times upon rewatching!
The look of "oh shit" on Valeris' face is even more poignant in this edit. It's not just about the regulation they're about to break, but the fact that somehow she's gotta put it though the door on impulse power, something that didn't translate quite so well in the movie. Well done. Looking forward to more. Subscribed.
Best exit Since the Enterprise heist in STIII
I really hated this scene in the move because that 1/4th impulse power order breaks canon.
The Enterprise moved so slowly it made it seem like Valeris disobeyed the order anyway and that Kirk and the rest of the crew were so old and incompetent at the time they didn't even notice. czcams.com/video/YgJeAfxEHfU/video.html
I imagined "It's an old ship on an important mission. Don't crash it," is what was going through her head.
@@Novusod the cgi just wasn't advanced enough to do that so it's forgivable
@@Eradicator-jv9xr And the reduced budget thanks to ST5's flop and money being focused on TNG (I'd also assume money was spent on the unnamed spin-off soon be called DS9).
Came back a year later. Still get chills when the maneuvering thrusters fire and the deflector dish powers up.
Every friggin TIME :)🤗
Paramount needs you. They just don't know it!!
Without question, the BEST version of the Enterprise, hands down.
Some of the shots from the back really made me feel like this was the TOS TV series enterprise, incredible work and probably the very first one of these that I genuinely thought is head and shoulders above the original.
Oh come on. You didn't like the Bobblehead D? LOL
@@1badsteed Hah! Bobblehead D, nice! They should actually release an actual Bobblehead D.
Still the most beautiful version of the Enterprise. Nothing will ever top this concept.
It's a nice refit for the Connies, but I still like the old Bussard domes on the original nacelles. Bad move, making those go away.
I agree. Have always been in love with this Enterprise!
ABSOLUTELY!!!!!
I find the Connie in SNW that bad either.
Whatever the future may bring for mankind’s true journey to the stars, I hope those ships are as beautiful as the Constitution Class Enterprise. I won’t be there to see that (my biggest regret), but in my heart I know Einstein will not stand in the way of faster than light travel to take us to the final frontier.
100 out of 10 on this. Always loved the score from ST2-ST3. The VFX are so on point. the Entermise-A almost looks as real as it did in ST6, and the beauty shots you did of it were way better than anything we saw in the movie. That very last scene where the enterprise speeds out of Spacedock, that last part of the musical score, evetime i hear it, in my head I always say "Goodbye David". I'd love to see more, Stealing the Enterprise from ST3, the Battle of the Mutara nebula, the Ambush of the Enterprise from ST2.
That sweeping shot across the back of the ship as it lines up the space dock doors - Magnifique!! Chef's Kiss!!!
Finally, an actual proper representation of impulse speeds! She's a real dragon in this one, majestic in scale and regal in visage. Outstanding work on this!
Connie Enterprise is best Enterprise, in any incarnation.
Considering that 1/4 impulse is 0.0625c, then, yeah, that's exceptionally fast!
The sound design makes all the difference!
Nothing scarier than a ship that can make sound in a vacuum!
Get back to reviewing Apple products!
I must be honest, the Undiscovered Country’s real soundtrack score works much better
As George Lucas once said "sound is half the experience".
We miss your reviews
One of the best non-commercial jobs I've seen. Great work. Thanks for your time and effort.
Such an awesome re-imagining of the scene. I especially loved seeing all of the TMP-era variant starships inside spacedock, An Oberth class, a Miranda class, and some others sharing the same engine nacelles as Enterprise.Thank you for making this.
Came back to watch it again! When the deflector dish powers up...chills! This is so good!! Bravo!!
Most definitely. Love the bass as it powers up.
Big Engineering Noises, like a dam's generators starting to turn.
I got tingles and started to tear up during that part.
Man, you make the Constitution-class look good. The choice to use James Horner’s score is fantastic. As his effort to give Enterprise her own motif allows her a true sense of majesty, even when she’s doing something as simple as “pulling out of the garage”.
This gave me chills!!! You can edit the whole movie as far as I’m concerned. Great Job!
The look on her face is perfect. A lot of people don't realize just how fast you travel under impulse power. The Enterprise could have bounced any smaller shuttle easily. Many of them might have thought they had plenty of time to move out of the way of a ship under thruster power.
The moment the gates open the other ships know to GTHOOTW
This is so beautiful, that you just made a grown man cry, who grew up with Star Trek since the 70's. I will be re-watching this many times to come.
You made a wonderful new version of the departure in ST6. 👏👏👏
The Horner music on this scene totally changes the tone. While ST 6 tends to be a little somber and old, this recut and score captures the youthful Nostalgia of Kirk and the crew, and makes it a more meaningful send off. This is amazing. Well done!
I never understood why the makers of Star Trek 6 didn’t ask James Horner back to do the music for this flick?
If I recall, Horner actually declined. He felt his career had outgrown Star Trek
RIP James.
@@echipman He must have wanted recognition, he did keep reusing musical ideas and motifs from his earlier works for later films, possibly preferring less popular films to source ideas from. Khan's motifs can be heard in Wolfen, an older film Horner scored, as one example. Once he was getting the recognition, and likely salary, he was after, then he must have felt that Star Trek was later "below him".
@@ChrisRoth1972 James Horner seems the type to try and "paraphrase" others' contemporary music to use as his own, with just enough change to avoid legal troubles most of the time, but never crediting his inspiration sources. I would personally find someone else to hire for the music. Horner is both pretty cool and uncool.
The original was low key because they weren't given the budget. What YOU have done is amazing :)
I loved the re-edit, but I miss the scene of the cadets in the engine room looking at Scotty with those awed (or is it _terrified?_ ) expressions. Otherwise, _perfection!_
It's never a bad day to see the Enterprise move like beauty and grace cast in steel. What a lady!
A lady that will fight to the defend and bring you home.
@@Drakesonone Absolutely!!!
imagine seeing it leave space dock and trying to take a picture to remember to only see a fuzzy imagine because they used impulse instead of thrusters to leave the docking doors.
It's quite amazing fans of Trek can put together better scenes than the major studios.... 👍 Live long and Prosper..
No wonder they shut down stage 9s D simulator, they were jealous
This is very good, but the original is still better. Nothing matches scale models and practical effects.
@@Dr.TJ_Eckleburg have to disagree there - I think the unimaginative model work in the last two original cast movies are a big let down
fans are doing the best work
@@MarkHevingham True, the later films are not as creative or impressive as the early ones, but they still beat CGI almost every time. I just can't get invested in what I'm seeing if it's a cartoon. There's no physicality to it; it really breaks my suspension of disbelief.
Wow....I don't understand how CZcamsrs can do SO MUCH BETTER than hollywood?
Because Hollywood is no longer invested in story telling.
As a lifelong Star Trek fan, this is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. Well done! 👏
That is proper movie quality CG! Well done and edited. I especially like the utter absence of any and all lens flares! Also the very detailed textures and windows with actual depth make the model feel very real. This is the kind of care and respect an iconic ship like the Enterprise deserves on screen!
The timing of :13 to :20 is breathtaking. The flare of the sun obscuring the shapes that resolve into Spacedock; I've never seen anything like it. The music even lines up!
The center of gravity and the feel of inertia when the thrusters fire is also masterfully done.
Your retiming of Horner's music for the whole scene is also pretty impressive. Especially still managing to hit with the Courage theme in the same place where Eidelman did.
This hits in all the right spots. ❤
How I miss these movies. They were escapist entertainment at its finest. :)
This is so beautiful. The Probert Refit Connie is the most beautiful Enterprise there ever was and I don’t think she’s ever looked better. Instant sub.😃
This is one of the most fantastic private/fanmade effects pieces of the Enterprise I've ever seen. The thruster rotation sequence is phenomenal. Absolutely fantastic.
You just made that scene 100x better.
Normally these kinds of edits with new effects come off as overindulgent, but this is just perfectly judged, edited and scored. Very well done!
I would paid good money for a version of ST VI remade with these FX. This scene looks incredible now. Great job!
I totally agree.
I don't comment much on youtube, but this is utterly fantastic, the details, the feelings with that score, seeing how 1/4 impulse SHOULD have been shown, takes me back.... *raises a glass* thank you.
Hello Fans. It is so wonderful that so many of you love Star Trek, and the beautiful ship. The refit and A are my favorites. Never will forget the first time seeing the Refit in TMP. So beautiful and awe-inspiring. Seeing Enterprise on the big screen blows my mind.
The thrusters firing is a great addition. Also the 1/4 impulse shows just how fast that really is.
Fantastic job! Words can not describe this 3 minute presentation.
The thrusters firing and seeing the inside of the widows is beyond words. This is FANtastic!
Enterprise leaving Spacedock that fast and the aft shot of it doing so gave me SERIOUS Beyond vibes when Enterprise left Starbase Yorktown and I LOVE IT. ❤
Oh, and the thruster scene was just PERFECT. My goodness, you REALLY get the sheer scale of the Enterprise as she maneuvers like that!
If ships and stations have soul the spirit of Yorktown say to her little sister enterprise “ show them what you can do and come back safe and sound”
It is better than beyond though.
@@tr4480 To be fair, I *really* like that launch scene in Beyond (Beyond was decent enough imo for a Kelvin Timeline movie, at least those movies are in their own timeline...) and seeing it in this video made me happy : )
It's even better with the classic Enterprise as well!! Great job all around! ~-~⁰(◠_◠)⁰v~-~
The first 30 seconds is god mode, it is absolutely amazing.
I keep coming back to this video to watch it. It's absolutely magnificent and original, showing a different perspective then we get normally - especially the thrusters and the actual acceleration of 1/4 impulse, which we never get to see in the series/movies. I think it's my favorite fan-made ST video of all times. Bravo.
This is absolutely amazing! Beautiful job. You really captured the majesty of the TMP Enterprise. The sound design is incredible, as well as the integration of James Horner's timeless score.
Faaaascinating! Absolutely fantastic! You accomplished making the Enterprise look so good and in such a grand scale. Also that first shot of Spacedock just had me in awe!
You should redo every single shot in the movie STVI. I’d pay to see it!
"I'D BUY THAT FOR A DOLLAR😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣"
Agreed I would too but we couldn’t. Paramount would trip out.
agreed
I still watch once in awhile. Whoever you are, Thank you!
Fantastic work. Thank you for going to so much effort to produce this version
I was having such a crummy day and this made me so happy. Thanks for making it.
Now that makes me happy. Thank you!
Fantastic. If only the professionals could do it this good. Simply outstanding.
I just watched this on my 49" curved OLED display. It looked stunning! Well done. Those non-canon ships in the dock were a beautiful touch.
Beautifully done. And bravo using James Horner's score
This should have been the scene in ST6. Very well done.
That was....God, where do you begin? That was spectacular. Your SKILL is spectacular. The thruster fire. The deflector dish powering on! The INTERIOR of Enterprise visible through windows. Just incredible. I can only imagine what Nicholas Meyer and the ST6 crew at ILM would think were they to stumble over this. Only 63 days of rendering!
If they say anything other than "Please update our film with your visuals and editing", it would be a travesty
Don't forget the sounds that accompany the visuals. they alone sell the scene... at least they do for me. But to each their own.
@@shep9231 Oh good audio goes hand in hand with good visuals. The deep humm of the deflector dish coming online is the one that gets me the most :3
@@k1productions87 ikr, my windows were rumbling all over the house, epic
@@whatthafuckisthis It doesn't count as a good powerup sound if the windows don't rattle
Thats so inspiring - gives confidence in the possibilities you have as a filmmaker today, not to wait for anyone
A confession: I'm more of a Star Wars fan but I loved the Original Series as a child. This is epic, and did bring a lump to my throat. Finally someone shows impulse power as fast!
