It would be better if you use HDR + PBR, as well as camera movements found in modern movies and TV shows.

Re: Cutscene Upgrade [RELEASE: EndGame (FS1)]
I disagree with the addition of needless camera movements.  This is meant to be a modernisation of the old scenes.  High definition and texture upgrades is a boon.  Adding Michael bay / BSG camera twattyness would be out of place.
Campaigns I've added my distinctiveness to-
- Blue Planet: Battle Captains
-Battle of Neptune
-Between the Ashes 2
-Blue planet: Age of Aquarius
-FOTG?
-Inferno R1
-Ribos: The aftermath / -Retreat from Deneb
-Sol: A History
-TBP EACW teaser
-Earth Brakiri war
-TBP Fortune Hunters (I think?)
-TBP Relic
-Trancsend (Possibly?)
-Uncharted Territory
-Vassagos Dirge
-War Machine
(Others lost to the mists of time and no discernible audit trail)

Re: Cutscene Upgrade [RELEASE: Intro (FS1)]
Why stop there? Let's future proof... Render in 16k and use camera movements found in FUTURE movies and TV shows. I'll also render in UDR (Ultra Dynamic Resolution. It'll be invented in 10 years.)

Hell.. Let's just make a brand new cutscene where during testing of a shield component, the Shivans burst through the walls in crystal clear PBR (also drinking PBR) and murder all the lens flares from Star Trek Into Darkness... then the North Koreans nuke the shield lab from orbit.

Re: Cutscene Upgrade [RELEASE: Intro (FS1)]
Here's a low-res preview. I decided I need to do some basic lip-syncing on the Nerd because in HD the lack of facial movement is really obvious. (In the original it was hidden by resolution and compression) So.. another couple hour's worth of work and then a few days to re-render and it'll be done!

Re: Cutscene Upgrade [RELEASE: Intro (FS1)]
I never knew what this cutscene was about. Designing Avenger? Why does he say that "it held" despite the energy loss? it's a cutscene that would have been more appropriate to test a shielding system or something.

Great work on the new version though. :)

Re: Cutscene Upgrade [RELEASE: Intro (FS1)]
...the cutscene IS about testing the shielding system.

 
Re: Cutscene Upgrade [RELEASE: Intro (FS1)]
Another work of awesomeness!! :)

One thing I noticed, however, is that the Vasudan on the screen (~second 12) has a talking head, but no body...
the retail version only shows the face.
