Opening scene for a 50+ minute animation. (It's been a while, but several people asked me to post an update to my last post when I got a little more done...this is a little more, believe it or not...)--T

Excellent animation and audio work!
Lip sync seemed a little off and rendering could use a little more dramatic lighting, imho.
Looking forward to the next update! :-)

I can easily say that's very impressive. The captain characters expressions were very well done, I think overall the lighting was good. Somehow some of the Vulcan's expressions didn't seem quite as good... but still very well done. The only critique I might dare make is, perhaps a teensy bit more camera movement during dialog. and the Outside the ship FX shot needs to feel.... bigger... Perhaps a longer focal length with the camera panning near the ship as it goes by. Anyway awesome. I can't wait to see more.

Yes I'd also like to praise the quality of voice acting, and just the overall presentation was very professional.

I second the positive reviews. Entertaining, well done and leaving you wanting to see more. Nice sound mixing as well. Also a good script and VO acting.

Very nice, very nice...
Was it actually rendered with Poser? Or something else?

I used Daz V3 models & clothing for the figures, plus some Poser-based models for most of the setting; Mimic for the lip sync; Poser 5 for animating,; Cinema 4D (using the ancient Mac OS9 plugin) for rendering (and the ship); Final Cut Pro for editing/compositing. It took me a while to figure out a working method, but it seems to work, tho it's a drag to have to keep going back and forth between OSX and OS9--I'm really hoping somebody makes a new Poser/Cinema 4D plugin for OSX soon! --T

Excellently done!
