Early CGI in STAR TREK films. The “rolling fire” Genesis effect and the Reliant’s targeting computer (II), the dogfight game that’s glimpsed in III (spot the red and green planes), and the dreamlike time warp sequence in IV.
The latter was storyboarded by Ralph McQuarrie, some examples below:
‘It’s a far, far better thing I do than I have ever done before. A far better resting place that I go to than I have ever known.’Is that a poem?No, no. Something Spock was trying to tell me. On my birthday.
I love how much use Star Trek has gotten out of the “Blinking Tubes” over the years and while I won’t list every instance here, the people over at Ex Astris Scientia have a pretty exhaustive list.
