Paramount+ 60th Anniversary Intro

[Dukhat]

It isn't for me to prove, the artists who were ripped off have been very open abou tit.

What artists were those? Where have they been open about it? Just curious, since this is the first I’ve heard of this.

You made the claim, so yes it is. Provide links to the posts where those artists have said this.

They certainly haven't here. As it is, you're the one making the claim on this site, so the burden of proof is on you.

Ok, let me nitpick this to death:

• This is the first time we actually see the classic TOS connie jump to warp
• They used the SNW opening titles cgi model - not the in-series ship model (round neck)
• The two saucer exhaust ports of the Ent-D shouldn't glow red - the impulse engine is the thing at the neck
• The sizes are a bit weird - looks like the Defiant is gigantic, but the Athena fragile & fiddly
• Why are the surfaces so shiny? It looks almost like they're mirrors
• Animator put the wrong texture for Defiant's yellow Starfleet delta decal. That shines brighter than the actual windows.
• They forgot or ignored the ships from PIC, S31 & the Kelvin ships. Good.
• However ignoring the Ent-E (while having the classic & the -A) is blasphemy
• The red & yellow in the warp tunnel look goofy
• The Ent-D should have asymmetric shuttlebays. #notmyTrek
• Voyagers nacelles not in warp mode (already mentioned)
• Wrong windows on Discovery's neck
• I do like that they went by by production date, not in-universe chronological

Overall - a cheap copy of ENT's "These are the Voyages" montage. I love it.

Also, as long as we're nitpicking, the Enterprise-A's warp nacelles should be blue since it is flying at warp speed.

Can we rename this thread “The Nitpicker’s Guide to the Star Trek 60th Anniversary Logo?”

Mods?

They took assets that some very good artists released for non-commercial, personal use released and used them yeah. And again, they effed them up when converting and using them. so whoever was behind the wheel was ignorant as well as insulting and thieving.

Could you elaborate?
I have been wondering where some of the models that were used for the PIC season 3 fleet museum scenes came from. Were any of those used for this logo as well?

It's a 30 seconds clip. It takes around the same time to read the first post as to watch the whole thing.
Every discussion that is longer than "I like it" is going to be nitpicky.
And this is what I love this site for.

The Trek CG Fan Art community isn't that big, especially narrowing it down to people who put up good-quality models for downloads. I can rule out Chris Kuhn, since he explicitly releases all his fan-art as "CC0," no restrictions on use whatsoever, but that still leaves at least three people I can name off the top of my head, and I'm not familiar enough with the quirks of their specific models to be able to identify them on-sight.

 

[C.E. Evans]

(But srsly - this show has a lot of DS9 connections - would be awkward to skip that if you have the NX-01 in)

The intro likely is meant for Star Trek's 60th in general, not just SA.

Humor. It’s a difficult concept.

Can you please use SFA. 'SA' has some negative connotations.

I liked it! It made me smile.

And they are? Where do they make this claim? This is more than likely on the same level as the game maker who sued Discovery because they used blue uniforms and tardigrades.

Blending modern era Trek and legacy Trek doesn't work for me. They want to pretend it's the same. It's not.

Funny you should mention. Separating modern era Trek and legacy Trek doesn’t work for me; doing that’s wanting to pretend they’re separate things. They’re not.

It got a huge applause in the theater!
