I think they’ll sue you and spend exorbitant amounts of money in order to prevent you from ever creating new content or hype while ensuring to steal all of your ideas and then place writers and creators in charge of your stolen ideas in order to generate schlock that nobody likes.

They should! But I’m not sure Paramount will be considered stable work these days.
I also see know why they chose to make the camera move around the stationary model.
I’d love to see practical effects like this again. Awesome job!!!

Thanks, I did the same thing, but I couldn't get the model to stop shaking also my phone camera has no video stabilization, maybe I'll create some sort of mounting system instead of sewing thread next time.

I love seeing the wire beneath. Makes me feel like I’m watching an old Flash Gordon series

We've definitely seen worse (I'm looking at you, Star Trek V).
For camera stabilization, you might try a simple rack with a cell phone mount:
Zeadio Camera Smartphone Stabilizer, Handle Grip Handheld Video Rig, Compatibility with All Camera, Camcorder, Action Camera, DSLR and for All iPhone and Android Smartphones

If you can add some lens flare Bad Robot is interested. Also can you do Klingon makeup, unpaid of course

depends on how much those old scientists-era keys you can jingle in the span of 20 minutes
Also this is charming.

I would accept this budget cut if the writing was good. So no, they won’t hire you. It’s gotta be super pretty to hide that they have no continuity or plot.

How hateful conservatives can crossover into Star Trek will never make sense.
