i suppose you could try using arms to simulate fear, surprise ect. . anyway i hope these stories are not sumat weve seen already . maybe 1 or 2 'Q ' stories would be welcome tho...

[cerberusfilms]

@mrlogicalman1 Haha... Do you play STO?

If not, then you probably won't know that we can't control everything about the characters... There are only a small number of set animations we can use.

The overall story is completely original. The whole premise of this series hasn't been seen in star trek films/series before.

As far as I know, we have no Q involvement...

crew expressions dont matter, you can use body language its just as good and easier. aswell as 2/3 crew being on screen on the bridge like the actual tv show is better than 1 at a time since the bridge is so big. to get more in you have to show bridge from a distance, which is not good. maybe if you make the bridge smaller.

[cerberusfilms]

@mrlogicalman1 We can't use a smaller bridge. This is the smallest we can use. Until More bridge assets are made available to us, we have to make do.

Body Language isn't particularly easier either...

Do you play STO?

[mrlogicalman1]

also i think although a big bridge looks nice it is unpractical , aswell as you cant see much of the bridge crew at once like in the show you can clearly see atleast 3 or 4 cast members. you wana see the crew expressions or something theyre too far spaced.. in a battle theyd have to run from console to console.....

[cerberusfilms]

@mrlogicalman1 I actually agree with you on this, but we can't do anything about it for the moment anyway.

Crew Expressions... they're our biggest nightmare... The games facial expressions, even lip movement is extremely difficult to do...

Another reason why episode two has been delayed once more

there sould be a love button on youtube:)

[cerberusfilms]

@enforcerknight We're already recostuming all the Actors, none of the main characters are actually costumed in the correct costumes. So we're a couple steps ahead of you there ;-P

Thanks for your feedback though.

I hope you'll stick around to watch our (much improved) Episode 2. We learned a lot from this one. And of course... if the first is perfection, there's nothing to work towards ;-)

looks like and walks like second life. you need more people in the background walking and

talking to each other.

Looks like a SIMS episode.

Acting sucks

Nicely done. Interesting story and the visuals are pretty good.

[bryanttillman]
