TV Idents

Uniform colours and shapes

The german tv station "Tele 5" asked my partner-in-crime David Frank and me to design some bumpers to better show off their Star Trek shows while also stay in line with the rest of their bumpers.

We developed the concept to present the various ships and stations of the 5 Star Trek series as a reduced version that resembles unpainted miniature models that fans have at home.
In the Background of the shots we pay hommage to the fabrics of the uniforms worn by the Starfleet officers in the different series.
The flight patterns of the ships also resemble somewhat the intros of the respective Star Trek shows, ranging from the Star Trek (1966-1969) to Star Trek: Enterprise (2001-2005).
