Best enjoyed in HD, full screen. Star Trek Video - USS Constitution NCC 1700 test fires phasers (older style) and photon torpedoes. Weapons done in Adobe After Effects with Video Copilot's Optical Flares Plugin and manual rotoscoping. Mesh is an extensively modified BR5 conversion of Dennis Bailey's LWO model.

  • TMP era ships use the machine gun phasers.

  • @MrHoppers002 True, but I never particularly liked their look (or the sound effect for that matter) so I decided that, since this was a video of the Constitution itself (NCC 1700), this ship pre-dated the movies and still used the old-style TOS phasers. Trek was never that consistent so I took liberties. :)

  • really? the machine gun phasers were awesome. Sounded menacing. That's why the new star trek movie used them.

  • Cool, but still looks like a cartoon kind of. I like physical models!

  • Now THAT'S a powerful sound

  • ha, I never liked the original TOS blue phaser's. The reasoning behind the movie version firing in blast is a constant beam isn't as powerful as a broken up beam's hitting the hull or shields. Forget if Memory Alpha said that or another website? To bad the Galaxy Class didn't keep to the Enterprise A's weapon's, maybe my favorite ship wouldn't have been such a push over. :)) Nice vid though.

  • pulse phasers from ds9 defiant didn't fire as fast as the pulse phasers from the new star trek movie.

  • @MrHoppers002 PULSE phasers. they fire in pulses. don't worry, I called them machine gun phasers at first aswell :)

  • @dtstrain That second one isn't a phaser bank. It's a phaser cannon. There's a difference.

  • Would not the Torpedo detonate as it pass's through the phaser path? 

  • it would be nice if the video was longer than 3 seconds ;-)

  • @MrHoppers002 Those lines should be pasted after the youtube.com address, separated by a slash (youtube doesn't allow links in comments).
