Just some ideas I had for a space game, nothing official or serious, just some VFX practice for the toolkit. I think the newer Star Trek uses Nuke? so I might look into that at a later date.
How the Idea to work on this started. This one is from the Epic July Free pack.
The reference video.
My Niagara Version 1 - This is how I remember it & how the reference video is done.
Niagara Version 2 - I watched a bit of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan & it was more this style.
Combining V1 & V2. Matches quite well to some of the Star Trek Next Generation clips I reviewed.
