I created some original spaceship UI for my sci-fi short film "Aboslom" I recently posted about. Went for a "retro" CRT look. Created in #Adobe #AfterEffects. Sound design by me.

I modified Alexander Klemm's Type 5 Shuttle for an upcoming #StarTrek #fanfilm. I tweaked included textures, added emission to the RCS thrusters, added decals seen on the physical models & created an emission for the impulse engines.

Made this with #Cinema4D a while back, before I got into Blender. Was experimenting with giving classic #StarTrek shots an update with modern software. Tried my best to guess the focal length used in the original effects shoot. Shot finished in #AfterEffects.
