I wouldn't ask you to do that for me for mockups, but maybe if FF doesn't have access to them for the final version.
EDIT: Speaking of the intro, I like the idea of using the opening of the series theme (you know, the part that the captain talks over) during the new footage, either repeated or stretched out. I love that music, and feel that it needs to be used more in the movies. We could even start out with the TOS version, and move into the TNG version to fit better with the existing TMP credits.
EDIT2: Might as well let you know what episodes will eventually need to be digitized:
- Amok Time (Spock brooding in his quarters with his harp)
- The Omega Glory (Shots of the empty hallways, engineering, and sickbay)
- This Side of Paradise (Shot of Kirk walking onto the empty bridge, shot of people lined up to use the transporter, shot of Kirk packing his suitcase, maybe shot of Uhura leaving Kirk on the bridge earlier in the episode)
- Tomorrow is Yesterday (Shot of Enterprise in orbit around Earth, the one without the moon since you can see the stars THROUGH the moon they just pasted into the second identical shot)
I'll check out those eps.
Regarding integrating the TOS theme, I found something that could be very cool. I have an audio book collection of "Enterprise: The First Adventure", "Final Frontier" and "Strangers from the Sky". In addition to the three books, Shatner does a five minute or so introduction to the collection. In that intro, he does a very reserved spoken version of the TOS speech with very subdued music under it. It's a different and interesting take on the opening...familiar, yet with that "tired" feel to it. I'll whip up an audio clip of it later tonight.
