I found it fairly easy to reincorporate the security guard scene just by looping the noise from either side to equalise levels, although Chekov's dialogue ended up being a touch quiet. There are more imperfections but it looks ok. It was much harder plug the gaps in dialogue at the end to name the security guard because I couldn't get vocoded dialogue to sound any good so I had to go back through TOS dialogue to find one thst fitted. RIP Dickerson.

As an aside, I have been experimenting with AI producing moving images from static pictures. I wonder if it would be workable to tweak the last few frames of Epsilon IX, so that the guy in the EV suit doesn't look so rubber?

Lots of cool things to look at.

Sadly, this reminds me of just had bad an actor Walter was. Painful.

I'm wondering what the little figures are from of the guards.

I think they are just figures from Star Trek Insurrection that someone painted to look like the security guards from Star Trek The Motion Picture, however I could be wrong about that.

So... this video is just regurgitating the special features from the Director's Edition blu-ray?

RIP Dickerson.

The novelization names the first casualty as Phillips.

These are painted versions of the licensed TMP miniatures from "Citadel" UK from 1980.

Yeah and it's onscreen in the subtitles on the DVD extras too. I tried so hard to vocode Phillips and locate other instances of Shatner saying Phillips, even other shows but none of them sounded right when slotted into the other dialogue. Dickerson was the closest I could get in tone and pace, so Phillips got a reprieve and I had to do the line off camera.

Is it? Thanks. If it is, no need to click on it, then.
