Good idea, what do you suggest for a storyboard? How would you like to see a game trailer play out?

I had an example (from another game) youtube video on here somewhere, I'll have to go find it plus I'll try and come up with something you can play with.

Long time no hear.

I have a few ideas on this...I'll write up a script if you want.

EDIT:

[Galaxy class starship (camera angle like in the final scene of TNG intro before warp)]

Human voice: Let's see what's out there. Engage! (The vioce shouldn't be perfectly clear, perhaps we could add a minimal echo effect)

[Now we cut to various 1-2 second scenes of Federation starships flying in varous space sceneries (Gas giants, nebulae, M class planets) no more than 3-4 scenes like this]

Big words: EXPLORE THE GALAXY

[Now we cut to the beautiful Klingon high council model made by captain...edited a bit to add some low-poly background buildings and a few klingon ships (BoP, D7...) flying in various places]

Angry Klingon voice: Our claim to Archanis IV and the surrounding territory is ancient and indisputable.(the same echo)

[Scene of a Klingon fleet leaving Qo’noS and passing near Praxis( a bit of an eye candy for the fans )]

Big words: EXPAND YOUR EMPIRE BY WAR

[We see a Cardassian gul from the back (to remove the need of animating lips) in front of him a wall with a big viewscreen and a Federation admiral on the channel]
Cardassian voice: I’m glad we came to an agreement on this matter, I assure you that your colonies on our side will be protected by the Cardassian military(the same echo)

Big words: OR PEACE

[A few Founders forming from the great link]

Founder: We cannot trust the solids, they are too chaotic.

[Fleet of Jem’Hadar ships heading to a class M planet]

Big words: BRING ORDER TO THE GALAXY

[Romulus scene we have with a few ships flying by]

Romulan voice: The peace between these powers is a threat to our security, we must find a way of sabotaging it.

[Three Romulan ships moving away from a Klingon and Federation hulks and a destroyed outpost.]

Big words: OR CHAOS

[A quick scene of Earth, Qo’noS, Romulus, Founder’s homeworld and Cardassia with race insignia overlayed, 1-2 second per scene, then cut to a scene of the milky way]

Big words: STAR TREK SUPREMACY

My vision of it.

Those are both very inspiring. I am giving it some more thought.

We could also add some foggy effect on the video scenes...like mild "dream" effect or some blur of you know what I mean.

Hey you guys!
You've got wonderful ideas for scenario! For the fun of it, I will also add a piece of mine.

While changing scenes, there could also be some images of some big events featuring in the game, like in a slow swirl before you see the milky way, or in a flipping style, in semi transparency. Your choice "Michael Angelo"Kenneth as to where to insert them...
I will also create a semi slow tension music track with changes that will reflect some of the scenes flowing in and out.
That's my seasoning for the sauce, .

Wouldn'c cloak be better for the Romulan emblem...it's more their thing.

Also I noticed that in some of the video some stars get streched (eg. federation intro, the stars behind NX a few seconds before warp)

The Klingon could have some sort of cooling effect like it was just forged from hot metal.

Here is a link to the first scene in the Dominion Intro / YouTube



I hope you like it.

I very much do! Just a little more slowing of the formation of the Founder. Close though. I am in a personal position to understand how much learning and effort and just plain blood, sweat and tears went into this. Way to go Ken

All I can say is....WOOOOW! (As if I didn't already know you could make it, Ha!) A superb job!

Very Cool

There are a couple of very sudden transitions (0:14 and 0:16) but other than that it looks really cool.

Freaking awesome dude!!!!!!!!!!

While scene one is backing the final updates I have been working on scene two.

Here is an early test run. There is a lot left to build and refine.


This will us models made by Captain B and be the first team effort with all original models.

Nice again, looks almost perfect already. If thats just a test can't wait for the final versions.

To play with words: That rock ROCKS! Yess sir!

Wow, you're really making progress. I've got some issues to solve with the Jem Hadar warship (read - there's a section I have to do over), but am progressing.

Some work this weekend



Special thanks to Luke Whitehorn

Awesome

I might just use that as my wallpaper for a bit, very nice.

Hey Kenneth, we should do a very large render of that for wallpaper. PM me.

I am trying to use mesh Sculpt Tool in blender to make it look more like

Need some impact creators from blender and then some particle emitters with a jet look in Lightwave.

I still want people to thing of the TV DS9 intro but with a better looking comet.

Knowing you guys, I believe we'll have another Masterpiece soon!

Dominion Beetle progressing.

And One D Beetle coming up! Now Brewing....

Very nice
