Excellent video. Look forward to seeing more. I am curious as too what program you used. I am especially impressed with your explosion and damage details on the ships.
In the future, all starships will be Sovereign class, every flyby will be dramatic, and Jedi will pilot them because no human could ever be that fast!
Okay I've seen this trailer a dozen times and still no response if this would ever be made what's the deal with this series is it only a fan made teaser trailer and the series is a low budget crap-fest or is there a serious attempt to make a show/movie?!
ok that is fairly well done, the modeling looks good and the effects not too bad, but as said b4, shields, the ships do have them.
second, it was too fast, the ships blowing up the weapons/torpedos shooting were all too fast, faster than most starship explosions thou granted it does depend on whats shooting at what (capital ship vs little destroyer)
Oh lovely...more ships that should be in star wars...and a story line that will only be skin deep...not for me thanks...And by the way, WHERE THE HELL ARE THE SHIELDS!!!
@manmonkee star trek was ment to be a "utopia" so to speak, but when roddenbery( not sure about spelling) died, things got darker and new fans were introduced to a post 359 star trek
Just a constructive comment but did you guys have a project manager? If you did sack him as none of those setbacks would have happened if he was worth his salt.
I reckon it should be Federation (all 3 crews Enterprise-D, Voyager and DS9), The Klingons, The Romulans, The Dominion, Cardassians, Breen and a whole bunch of Delta quadrent races VS The Borg to eliminate them once and for all
very nice, i too am working on a fan show calld Star Trek Mirror Imperfect, i have two trailers both do not have sound b/c the sound on my computer stoped working when i was making theme.
Okay. Great CGI. Wheres the cast? I mean, that is what the show is REALLY about, right? And we're in 2009 now & I havent seen or heard squat from you guys.
Federation starships are incredibly faster and more maneuverable than any starship in BSG. The ships do move way too fast when they get hit with weapons fire.
This video is a absolutely fantastic, but just one question I needed to ask, why are there Romulan ships from the 23rd century (at 00:55) fighting in a 24th century war?
Unless the Romulans are so committed in domination that they're using literally "EVERY" ship that they have in their conquest.
I know it's more dramatic to have ships exploding like popcorn, but one of these days it'd be nice if the crews would remember to turn the shields back on and remove the explosives they wired to the hulls.
After star trek Nemesis I don't wont to see them any more. Once it was proposed that star trek creators create a film about Borg return and then they give up of that idea. God knows way. This trailer is fine and good example that with little money you can build and create something good. If fans can create something like this way can people with money(paramount). Answer: they don't wont to or they lack of inspiration.
The ST: Trinity trailer is up. Escelce has again done a fantastic job as animation director. He has such a talented crew of animators and never ceases to amaze me. So forget what I said before... we are going to be BETTER than ILM or any other FX company.
holy crap!!! that was the most awesome fan film short for star trek i have ever seen... ST Trinity picked up these guys right? or is Protector a part of Trinity??? I am confused but excited! Look out Hidden Frontier :-P
This is Thorsun from Thorsun-Escelce. My partner's visual work never ceases to amaze me and I'm looking forward to seeing what he does on the Trinity project. I composed the music for this trailer (not my best work but it needed to be done in a hurry) and will be doing the music for the Trinity trailer as well.
yes you did everything except the last shot, and used tmp theme, but it was good, as far as trailers go. i haven't heard much of your work but i'd say you were a good tv composer.
Yes, sorry, I should have given appropriate credit. I used the theme that Mat created for that last bit and of course borrowed from the late, great, Jerry Goldsmith for the TMP theme where the United Federation of Planets logo appears.
I'm much happier with the Trinity score though. I just got a preview of the visuals that Escelce has created so far and it is incredible. He definitely outdid his work on this one. As much as I like having him as a business partner he really needs to be picked up by ILM or Dreamworks. Of course he's too stubborn to leave England for that.
Damn! very nice! I wish they wouldn't give up on making another series,I see better stuff like this on the internet,they should hire the person that did this to do the next show!
lol, yea it would be great to work on a new series. But with cbs and friends cancelling 30 shows, owing to problems with the writing staff and others, i don't think we'll see a new show for a while. Best not to bankrupt a studio over one show. But hopefully they've got some good ideas in the works. i'd like to see braga and berman put their heads together for the show.
Excellent job! And I don't say that lightly, the problem with most battle sequences is that when a torpedo or weapon hits you can feel it, here though, I could feel the impact, and the voice actor was excellent! The only recommendation I could possibly make is a more pronounced jagged gritty tear when a piece of the ship is destroyed.
HEY THATS A STEALING FROM THE PERCEPTION CLASS!!!!

I really like the design of this Sovereign-class starship better than the Enterprise.
In particular, I like that this one has a "Neck" section, whereas most starships, like the Ent E & Voyager don't.
In addition, I like that the Romulan emblem can be seen, unlike the "Next Generation" version which is barely visible.
To bad there aren't any model kits of these 2 ships. I'd certainly would love to build & display them.

So do any of the ships have shields? It looked like they took quite a beating and didn't even have them up.

You should watch the battles of Deep Space Nine; prime example, Battle of Chintoka, you'd see that no vessel has shields, not even the USS Defiant.
Or the DS9 episode "Favour the Bold" when every ship in the Dominion and Starfleet had no shields either.
