Star Trek VoyagerThe original Voyager launch campaign had served us well, won us our first award…and, after the better part of a busy year in which I had no time to replace or significantly update it, it had outstayed its welcome as well. With a year of 3-D animation experience under my belt, I decided to do away with using footage from the show, opting to create my own Star Trek scenes instead, using Lightwave models of various ships from the series. None of those ships, however, was Voyager itself. Out of necessity and desperation, the promo became about a galaxy-wide search for Voyager – and it told viewers where they could find it at its new time on UPN 32. The Lightwave animations were some of the most elaborate and best-executed 3-D scenes I had done, and were accompanied and composited by graphics created in Targa TIPS+. The fans loved this one – aside from one who hade taped the promo, gone through it frame-by-frame, and called up to complain that my quickly-made graphic accompanying a searching Klingon ship was incorrect in giving the name of the ship – in tiny, almost unreadable print – as the “K’boom.”
