Enterprise Leaves Spacedock with James Horner Score - Star Trek VI - The Undiscovered Country

I've been wanting to do this animation for years.
This is originally a scene from Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, that I re-edited with animations and re-scored with James Horner's brilliant soundtrack titled "Genesys Destroyed" from the complete score of Star Trek III: The Search for Spock.
I always felt that, given that The Undiscovered Country was the final journey of the Enterprise, her final departure from Spacedock into adventure was a bit "low-key". The Enterprise has always been a character for herself, and giving her some moments to shine in her departure to her final voyage would have been great.
Around 2010 I did the cover of the Ships of the Line 2011 calendar ( memory-beta.fandom.com/wiki/S... ), which I later turned into a tiny little animation ( • Star Trek - Ships of t... ). Somewhere around the same time I came across the complete soundtrack for The Search for Spock, and when I heard the track "Genesys Destroyed", I immediately had the vision for this animation in mind.
When I sat down to do a quick edit, the score and the live action scenes fit like a glove.
1521 hours of rendering 16854 frames later, we're finally here.
Modeling, Texturing, Animation, Lighting & Rendering all done in Newtek LightWave 3D
Multipass Compositing done in Adobe After Effects
Re-editing, sound editing and sound effects in Adobe Premiere and Adobe Audition
Thanks (in no particular order) to Alain Rivard, IRML, Matt Christou, Alexander Klemm, David Metlesits, Kevin Riley and everyone I forgot to mention for their help, support and their sharing of fantastic 3d models that I could put inside my Spacedock model.
Long story short: enjoy!

Enterprise leaving Spacedock on 1/4 impulse was the equivalent of Kirk burning rubber out of the parking lot. He does it so often, I bet spacedock control makes sure there are no ships just beyond the doors when Enterprise prepares to depart.

Absolutely! One thing that grates with the stealing the Enterprise scene is that at one quarter impulse they would have crashed into the doors in the time it took Kirk to say Scotty. I would re-dub it but Stiles says it too. I suppose could edit out the word impulse maybe and take Kirk's thrusters from TMP?

I love that "one quarter impulse" finally gets put into perspective. In the original, it seemed like they went out the doors pretty casually. I was always like "what's the big deal? why would regulations require you to go even slower than this?" But impulse engines have always kinda been described as being fast. Crazy fast for something that *isn't* warp speed. The way it's depicted here, both the regulation and Valeris' hesitation make much more sense. Starfleet's basically like "Do not peel out of spacedock. You will end up smashing your ship into the space door or clipping another ship or worse. Unless you're James Kirk. Then you just do whatever the hell you want, we guess."

So that would make 1/4 impulse 11,00 miles a second. So crazy speeds. This seems like an accurate depiction of what that would be like

@@JerryFisher Exactly, and impulse doesn't have set numbers. full impulse for one ship might be 3/4 impulse on another due to size of ship, design, amount of impulse drives ect. In the TNG manual it states that the Enterprise D could reach Warp 1 velocities at maximum impulse which would be light speed, but unlike warp they would be susceptible to time dilation. That would mean that for the Enterprise D 1/4 impulse could be around 168,000,000 MPH.

The look of "oh shit" on Valeris' face is even more poignant in this edit. It's not just about the regulation they're about to break, but the fact that somehow she's gotta put it though the door on impulse power, something that didn't translate quite so well in the movie. Well done. Looking forward to more. Subscribed.

I really hated this scene in the move because that 1/4th impulse power order breaks canon.

Right? That sense of speed is only really on screen once in the movies that I can recall: in the first film, there's a rearward-facing image in the viewscreen as Enterprise powers away from Earth, and you remember that impulse power is supposed to get the ship to something not far from light speed. They never used to use the warp drive until clear of the solar system...

Can we just take a moment to appreciate the INSANE amount of detail that we can see looking into practically EVERY external window that passes close to the camera? Some is indistinct still - but there's STILL PERSPECTIVE MOVEMENT in even the TINIEST sliver of window that passes close enough to show it! And other times - like the windows on the trailing edge of the saucer you can look in and see what are fully realized ENVIRONMENTS inside! And all of that has to stay synced up and on perspective angle to the proper deck and window angle while both the ship AND the camera are moving! Absolutely a tour-de-force par excellence of planning, composition, framing, and rendering execution from start to finish! Mind blowing!
