"Star Trek: The Beginning Teaser Trailer" (Fan Trailer)

[PixelMagic]

Hey guys. Sometime last year I was excited after watching the teaser trailer for J.J. Abrams' Star Trek, and started to create a trailer for fun along the lines of "What if I was in charge of rebooting Star Trek?" So to that end, using my knowledge of filmmaking and CGI, I set off to create a teaser trailer based off that concept. This includes a differently designed Enterprise, drydock, and shuttlecraft. So without further ado, I present the fan teaser trailer for "Star Trek: The Beginning"...

Also for those interested in how the visual effects were done, I posted a little write up on my blog...

Wow, PixelMagic, amazing work. Bravo! Nice to see Dan Uyeno/MadKoiFish's Enterprise in all her glory. Simply a stunning piece.

 

[Tom Servo]

Ah......DAMN!

As a person in school for VFX, all I have to say is stunning work sir.

May I ask what programs were used for the modeling and compositing work?

 

[Chess Piece Face]

Fantastic job and the blog article was interesting as well.

 

[Aragorn]

Sweet! Prepare to have someone steal it and pass it off as their own on YouTube!

I love when the E goes to warp, the audio is as great as the FX.

 

[Captain Pike]

Thanks for the comments guys. I had a great time making this. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE what JJ is doing with Trek, but I thought this would be a fun project in its own right. I'm glad you enjoyed it too.

I used Photoshop, 3ds max, and After Effects.

I like that model of the Enterprise. Cool work.

 

[think]

Why can't I feel this??? it is the music!!! that is what is wrong ..,?

needs less string tension motions and more like a dripping gripping droning buzzing blends of a firery bass lines or @least balance the dame thing already.

other then that I will not complain again till after the movie. LOL (maybe)

 

[Warped_Speed]

Might I ask what music it was that you used in that teaser trailer, Daniel?
Thanks.

Excellent trailer.
CGI is very cool and loved the music.
Scottys voice is like a cherry on top
