A pair of rather useless stills:
Mr. Rush, of the regal camera
Mr. Zimmerman, of the mighty drawing board

Unfortunately, those two stills show the grand total of everything that's to be seen. They also show Rick Berman, but he's just on a black background. Everything else is clips from the other shows and movies.

I find the first still of Mr. Rush informative. This still shows, if this is the bridge of the S.S. Enterprise, that the bridge is smaller than later Starfleet bridges and that the color of choice is beige. And the controls don't look too ridiculous. They look functional and a few generations away from our present day technology.

I dunno if the bridge set is really *smaller*, though it could easily be so. For all we know, there could be a linear design instead of the circular one we're used to. Also, if you look at the right side of the pic, there seems to be a monitor in the console he's leaning against. It looks like a flip-up version, or a derivation of today's flatscreen monitors.

I'm also interested in the placement of the button consoles. THey seem kida haphazardly placed, with irregular spacing between the panels. That seems odd, considering the space constraints on today's space vessels and the relative order seen in stuff like the ISS, and even in the E-nil. This may say something for the origin of the Pre-E. Interesting.

I also had some trouble when trying to access the promotional clip for the new ST series. There is a way around this,

1. download Gozilla from www.gozilla.com

2. click on the link, allow the "action cancelled" page to pop up

3. Gozilla will then open a new window a deadlink recovery page, follow the instructions on this page and you have it.

Looks good.

Huh. I think it looks cool, but yeah, the control arrangement... Reminds me of the Motion Picture bridge consoles and how the panels were arranged on that. Odd shapes with odd spaces and odd buttons. God knows how many times I tried to come up with something more ergonomic.
