And of course a beautiful bridge
Do you mean interior or exterior? Like Timo said, they used the bigger model for the big screen, as was necessary for the higher definition. Still, it seemed like they skimped in costs by reusing shots from the series.There is something about the GEN version that just looks different from the TNG one, but I can't figure out just what it is.
i think they added the port and starboard consoles so there weren't just blank beige walls on either side of the set. but yeah, the lighting was done so the sets would hold up better to scrutiny on the big screen since they weren't originally built for that.I thought the expanded bridge, port & starboard consoles, were excess, changing things for the sake of changing them, and didn't make the Enterprise appear better.
fair assumption, but i think they look a lot better than the equipment bays so i was down with the "facelift". and i even liked the moody lighting. though the green-ish hue of the blu-ray transfer makes the warm yellow sunlight coming in through the windows look a sickly green. so that's unfortunate.IMO not necessary, those new workstations should've had a purpose instead of just to be blown up and have crew people flying all over the bridge set.
When the DS9 camp hired Jim Martin to illustrate, he was a great addition IMO and the designs were beautiful and very Star Trek and I thought he should've been hired to at least make an attempt to design the new Enterprise. Nope, they hired Star Wars super fan John Eaves and his ugly work has smeared Trek til this day. There's nothing smooth or sleek about his work. Bleh!Love it. After TNG ended, I can't name a single new Federation ship design I like. One or two interesting approaches, but nothing good. Just one ugly ship after ugly ship.
And the Enterprise designs F to J, official and not, are worse and worse.
I'm guessing due to the CG Enterprise doing a slooooow warp-stretch away from Amagosa?For years, I thought the Enterprise-D in "Generations" had been refit on the outside as well as the inside, so that the nacelles were placed further back on their struts. Below is a comparison image I edited together:
