It never ceases to amaze me how this show has stood the test of time!

Thanks Bryce, that makes more sense now.

Eric, actually I’m not a Trekker, Trekkie, whatever. Just an editor that watches a lot of movies and TV shows and has a very large collection of DVDs/Blu-Ray discs. I like Star Trek, but I’m more of a fan of the movies than the shows. I did watch re-runs of TOS as a kid and a few seasons of TNG, but none of the other Trek series.

Leave it to a Trekker (I count myself in that crowd) to point out timeline inconsistencies.

We should clarify that Daryl did not only edit TNG, but also a few other Star Trek series including Voyager and Enterprise. So his experiences he has referred to apply to his Star Trek experience as a whole, while we primarily mentioned his experience on TNG in the article headlines. If you have other questions for him, let me know and I will send them along.

Interesting, but a few things don’t add up. TNG ended in 1994. FCP wasn’t even a blip on the radar at that point. Montage was used by a lot of shows at the time TNG was in production, but Avid didn’t really come to dominate the post landscape until a few years after the show ended. Could Daryl have been talking about Avid in question 1?

Also in regards to the effects, I’ve heard for years that though the show was shot on film, the effects were finished and composited on video tape. In order to make TNG in HD all of the effects would need to be redone. This wasn’t the case for the original Trek, as all of its effects were done on film (because of the era in which the show was produced). This is a big reason why the original is available on Blu-ray and TNG is not.
