Question about Enterprise bridge (star trek 2009)

[gekkehenkie50]

In this scene we see the camera zoom out from the bridge window, then it flips itself, and then we see the entire ship, but the place where the camera came from would be the bottom of the scaucer section :S. Does this mean that the shot was badly coordinated? or is it a secondary bridge at the bottom of the Enterprise? And if so, then what the hell is gravity doing (all the people in the shot would be upside down)?! I was really confused about this bit and I would really appreciate it if anyone could clarify this for me

(i couldnt place the entire clip in here because of copyright and the amount of uploadable data, and i could not find it as a clip on any other site)

PS: (sorry, I did not see the Star trek XI+ section, my post should probbably have been there)

The camera flips, ending with an upside-down shot of the ship (note the "NCC-1701" which isn't on the saucer bottom). The bridge is on deck two, at the top of the saucer. Here's a fan-made cutaway showing where everything is.

Why is there a spoiler tag about a movie that's been out for 7 years?

Plus there is no spoiler anyway.

Here's a similar shot, an extended version of a scene from Into Darkness, a zoom-in on the bridge window.

There is no up or down in space. The camera is just rotated 180 degrees. Very cool shot if you ask me.

Yeah, a spoiler tag really doesn't make any sense here, so I've removed it.

Thank you all for explaining it to me
and sorry moderators, I placed the spoiler tag because, well, maybe someone might not have seen the movie, and a spoiler (however small), in my experience, can make BIG flame wars. The spoiler being in this case the shot/clip explanation.

Meh, if they haven't seen Star Trek in seven years then they deserve to have the movie spoiled by this point.

Flame on.

Well, that was pretty

I really do like with the new movies how some shots are set up with no up and down- the very first view of the Kelvin is still one of my favorites.

What I like about this is you can see some people sitting off to the side who don't have to put up with constant lens flare.
