Was checking up some things on youtube can came across these clips of a good edit remastering of Star Trek 5 in terms of its SFX effects being redone over, via a fan CGI attempt.
He calls himself 'TREK5SE'!
I know this usually brings up the modern effects verses digital CGI creations and how one shouldn't be too involved nor taken away by its appeal so much. But this fan effort does look to be the work of a labor of love for Trek in general. And if ever a movie needed a true SFX do over its Star Trek 5. The clips of the fan effort are done by a Dutch fan from Holland apparently, and his first trailer clip was put on months ago, he has recently updated his page a week ago with 2 more.
Must say its a neat addition and i like what i see. I'll probably get my own youtube channel next year or so, with plans of my own, of what i'd like to do and maybe i'll share an opinion with this guy. The clips he's put up are sweet, although i'd comment about the shuttle sequence being out of perspective somewhat as the shot looks a little off and small-ish to be matched up, with 'POV' and progressive camera pan of the landing of the shuttle in the Enterprise bay, from so early on in beginning of the movie.
Other than that. Its quite great overall, and nice to watch. Music from The Good, The Bad And The Ugly suit this montage sequence trailer of his re-edit, surprisingly well enough.
I haven't got a youtube account yet, for anyone who does. Pass on my thanks and ask him what else he is planning with this edit of his?
