Who does not love, LOVE, Star Trek: The Next Generation!? If you love Voyager, great. Deep Space Nine, alright well, that’s fair too. But surely in your heart you know you love that sweet even lighting and cheesy scifi taste of The Next Generation. TNG. This week we start our own voyage through a top ten list of Star Trek: The Next Generation. We get some swing Klingon action and a smidge of Tasha Yar. Find out what makes the cut and whats ejected into the cold dead vacuum of space!
Why is this so weird?
We are starting the list from the bottom at number 10. This list is comprised of nothing but champions. Each one a triumph to watch.
Yes I know we have used this one before, but it was just too good not to use again.
A Pogo remix of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Details below.
Temba, his arms wide! In Tamarian this signifies the giving of a gift, first heard in the excellent episode Darmok. Data & Picard is my tribute to one of the greatest TV series of all time. It is an original track featuring the voices of Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) and Commander Data (Brent Spiner), accompanied by a music video I shot entirely in my living room with a green screen and lights.
The track opens with the Klingon Victory Song, followed by a remix of Data singing Che Gelida Manina in the episode ‘In Theory’. This episode was the first ever to be directed by Patrick Stewart and I didn’t realize this until after the track was finished.
I sourced the Ben Nye makeup that was used to turn Spiner into Data, and a replica of the iconic Star Fleet uniform. Unfortunately I couldn’t get the contact lenses in and I could only get the uniform in red, so I spent a huge amount of time changing the colour of my eyes and uniform in post.
The video was shot in Slog 4k ProRes HQ using a Sony A7SII and an Atomos Ninja Flame. Lights included 3x Arri 800w Tungstens, 2x Socanland LED banks to light the screen, and one 2000w Blonde to simulate sunlight. BIG thanks to the guys at HD Rentals in Perth for helping me out. http://www.hdrentals.tv/
