"Leaving Drydock" (2017 version) Star Trek TMP Remade

[@TheLenaweeTrekker]

Now that's the ship that inspires goosebumps every time I see that scene. There was something special about that Enterprise.

[@xunit62]

Always loved that scene! Brings back good memories of that December 1979 day of seeing the USS ENTERPRISE back in action!

[@VideoSpaceFX]

Seeing that on the big screen must have been quite an experience!

[@robstoppablecosplay]

Absolutely Beautiful. I love the USS Enterprise. Great Animation.

[@xunit62]

Yes! The CGI stuff wasn't available but the old school stuff holds up in this movie!

[@VideoSpaceFX]

xunit62 I absolutely agree.

[@christopherevans5985]

Chills. Superbly-done rendition of the most beautiful starship of all time.

[@Camop-iz9kt]

A great tribute to the most honored starship of all time. If science and technology ever gets this far, it will have to look like this!!

[@somebuddyX]

Amazing. I love that shot of the Enterprise zooming past around the 3:00 mark

[@vicrobinson8485]

Brilliant, Best shaped USS Enterprise ever. Keep up the good work

[@memadmax69]

Very nicely done, you guys even remembered to change the deflector dish from orange to blue, unlike others lol.

[@kjellbjrnasmo480]

Top tier animation. There is something special about the stuff you make.

[@joshhuffines5978]

Beautiful, really liked it. If starfleet was real my life would be so different right now.

[@jackj3596]

Amazing Job with remaking a timeless scene; you seriously have some real talent.

[@PhilipIsThere]

I cried. I cried during this. Star Trek is so special to me in a why I can't just explain...

[@winterweib]

Philip TV Same here. I am happy you wrote this. I feel the same. It is the love of my life.

[@ariksoong200]

Here here!

[@ZanyJIntPictures]

My God, the hours of dedication and patience; not to mention meticulous attention to DETAIL!!!!!!!!! EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!

[@marc-emmanuelclement5403]

In France we love beautifull things..THIS is a beautifull thing !!!!!!!

[@Willpower-74205]

Wonderful! A born-again starship. I knew Scotty could do it! Excellent video!

[@TVsGreatestHits]

Perfection!! Reminds me of sitting in the theater and seeing the Enterprise again... for the first time.

[@LordVader311]

Bloody outstanding!

[@TheStarshipdriver]

AWESOME!!! wish I had the needed skills to do this with two 3d Models I had custom created for me. each was named for my deceased sister whom was a HUGE trek fan and she would have loved that. :)

[@winterweib]

Derick Wildstar So sorry for your loss, dear friend! I wished I had known your sister. It sounds as if she would have been my friend I never had, which lived Star Trek as much as me. I always only see guys, never girls. I hope you will not become angry,; I am sure she still can see this. And one day you will meet again.

[@DelcoRanz93]

That is the most amazing thing I've ever seen.

[@Xalorr]

In HD now and.....wuff. What for Details, amzaing.^^

[@TheFlashSpeedforce]

Kuddos on the fine work! Also, I noticed you restrained from using a "too brigh" palette of colors, which is technically correct as pictures from NASA (original ones without color enhancement made for the general public) reveal that in space colors show up in subtle shades. Excelent attention to detail. Congrats!

[@markuspirker4929]

Perfect and Wonderful!!....more!!!

[@TheSaneHatter]

"Ahead: Warp Point-Five!"

[@L1z43vr]

*Ship's engine roars as the song continues*

[@JasonAdank]

camera positions and focal lengths are perfect, great job matching the film! My only critique is the lighting - intensity is too dark.

[@ptaylor5014]

Wow that is fantastic work, i love it!

[@JohnWalker857]

Stunning:)

[@Iams001]

Outstanding!!! Great work!!!

[@btly-wing6531]

Excellent work, as usual

[@Michiganborn1969]

Excellent remake. I saw this movie like 4 times when it first came out in 1979 on the big screen. It wasn't until Star Trek II that I realized in the departure scene that there was a huge clamp of some sort attached to the starboard secondary hull and it was has become stock footage from TMP.

[@VideoSpaceFX]

Indeed, I never noticed it until it was pointed out to me and I must have watched it many times by that point.

[@Michiganborn1969]

VideoSpaceFX Make me wonder because the flaw was so huge, how did ILM or whoever was responsible for the FX didn't catch that?

[@VideoSpaceFX]

It was probably done to reduce the need for compositing. Having everything in the same take means you don't get the matte lines, scratches and image degradation from the techniques that were used then. It's why 2001 has amazing looking effects for 1968. Kubrick insisted on everything being in the shot for the one take (excusing perhaps a second pass to pick up the lighting etc.). Compare them with TOS shots filmed in the same era!

[@chrisstutts9319]

Wow, I never noticed, and that thing is big.

[@jamesavalos4555]

Outstanding mate !!!

[@nicholasmorsovillo2752]

The Constitution Refit Class U.S.S. Enterprise is a beautiful ship and a beautiful design it's sad that they didn't know the ship had a serious design flaw and it was that ridiculously thin neck only if they had widened or strengthened or reinforced that structure the Constitution Refit Class probably would have been in service a lot longer instead of being decommissioned in the early 2290s and also would most likely would have still been in service in the 24th century like the Miranda and Excelsior classes or could have been started being phased out by then.

[@mikegallant811]

Yes Nicholas that is unfortunately true the Constitution refit Enterprise was a very Good ship I am not disputing that but you are entirely correct there was a serious design flaw to that class in that the neck was unfortunately very slim. The Enterprise you could quite easily say had a close one when Khan hit her broadside in the torpedo launcher area it was only probably because the torpedo Bay section was very well designed that she didn't get shot in half at the neck you could say God was watching out for Jim Kirk and his crew but then Gofd looks out for idiots children and ships named Enterprise although I will add this because of the damage that the torpedo Bay took on one side from Khan's phaser shots Enterprise was down to one working photon launcher tube I believe it was the starboard one later on in Star Trek 3 The search for Spock when she went up against the bird of prey and you are right the excelsior class definitely had a thicker neck which was a good thing!

[@USAFpilot1993]

Ive been dying to see the continuation of your Wolf 359 animation. But if you didnt thats fine. Im just glad youre back.

[@ZanyJIntPictures]

DAMN that was NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Excellent Job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@johnfic4751]

The enterprise. Love this sequence.

[@mattbartley2843]

"Departure angle on viewer." Nice touch adding the moon receding into the distance. That, and the Earth-orbit views from the shuttle pod are the only parts of this scene that need a re-make. IIRC, even the original Jupiter fly-by wasn't bad, but your Celestia version was better. (I've re-created it in Orbiter enough times, with an Enterprise model. :-)

[@Gardner1701]

Where have you been? This place was lonely without you

[@VideoSpaceFX]

More videos are coming :)

[@crimsonninja6995]

This comment is the best part about this video :)

[@warhawk2001]

awesome

[@silasjones8262]

Excellent!

[@HalloranIllustrations]

Loved it.

[@knytrydr73]

I have a suggestion. This sequence, but with the TOS Enterprise. That would be pretty sweet.

[@OneAndOnlyMe]

Very nice work. Though I personally think no CG can match the warmth of the original practical effect of the Douglas Trumbull version.

[@dixievfd55]

When you get the Connie in STO.

[@jonathanbouler5604]

Any possibility of making a video showing the refit Enterprise firing her phasers from various angles? I haven't seen anyone do that yet. Great work on all your videos!!

[@BattleRogue]

Not bad. Quite an improvement.

[@timonsolus]

Movie quality animation.

[@TheDeaffilms]

champion !

[@federicoestrella2567]

Do Star Trek II - TWOK, without dry dock, maybe in space station

[@recnepsgnitnarb6530]

"Intermix set bridge. Impulse power at your discretion."

[@theamused8705]

I'd like to see that done with a Miranda class.

[@raymondstpaul4913]

Question can you provide me with advise on how to make my own hull design/pattern for use in Photoshop to be applied to my CGI models of starships?

[@chefdean7257]

As much as I love yer work, and advertise it to others, slightly saddened by the missed nerd moment . . . Where's the backflipping EAV suited celebrator ? ;-)

[@VideoSpaceFX]

I'm left wondering if you watched the video lol...

[@smileygabe22]

Finally a new video!!! My god your work is beautiful man. Truly amazing. Do you have a Facebook fan page?

[@VideoSpaceFX]

No I don't. Thanks for the comment!

[@Xalorr]

Fantastic Animation. The Details are impressiv, but wy is that not in HD?

[@MrFreesearcher]

Xalorr Draco it is in HD. Has KZbin randomly changed your playback settings?

[@Xalorr]

it gives only 360p not higher

[@VideoSpaceFX]

Should be available as 720p HD

[@Xalorr]

Great, Thanks ^^

[@shengyi1701]

Take us out!

[@recnepsgnitnarb6530]

"Departure angle on viewer."

[@bew140993]

Do you do requests of custom starships? >.>

[@VideoSpaceFX]

What exactly would you like? Kitbashes I can do, but building from scratch, no.

[@bew140993]

Two things, whichever is easiest. The launch of a Constitution-Class, USS Kongo, NCC-1710, Refit form. Or a Sovereign Class, USS Apollo, NCC-71685, alost leaving drydock. Whichever is easiest! Thank you for the reply!

[@VideoSpaceFX]

Is this an actual project or fanfilm? I only ask because, although I would love make videos for everyone who asks on a whim, it does take time and effort to do.

[@danclark1348]

Built in Earth orbit. Kelvin timeline, built on Earth's surface. I prefer the orbit space dock.

[@nathanaeleisnerafc.4594]

Why is this so dark? No lighting.

[@richardgottheil8862]

richard gottheil created print 3 three the motion picture

[@soldores693]

I think your work has actually gone down in quality. Another channel did the departure a whole lot better last year with much less experience.

[@Thin447Line]

I don't like it. CGI looks cartoony and fake. The best CGI money can buy is still no match for skilled, professional, old school cinematography and hand built models.

[@anthonythompson4135]

Too dark.

[@jeffdall1109]

I love this
