    Hey guys!

    We just launched VOYAGE TREKKERS SEASON 2 with the first new brand new episode! We're really excited about the new season, we wanted to raise the bar not only in terms of storytelling but with the production value as well. We built a bridge set for the crew, we have a beautiful CGI starship now, and we recorded the first episode with a fifty-nine piece orchestra!

    Let me know what you guys think -- And if you like it please share it with your friends!

    I remember you guys! I somehow stumbled across the first season last year or so and it was totally goofy fun. Production values look like they've gotten better, are you still working out of Tempe?

    And I did a doubletake on the end credits, when I recognized the name of David Stipes. That ship was wonderful.

    Good eye! Yes, David Stipes was a visual effects supervisor for Star Trek: The Next Generation and we were so lucky to get his help for our show too. The CGI model is created an animated by Sigil FX by S.E. O'Brien, in Australia, who was a fan of Season 1 and wanted to help out.

    We're an all volunteer outfit, no one gets paid, and its been really awesome having the help from so many talented people who just want to help us run around with ray guns and lizard masks! :)

    The Transolar Galactica filmmakers are real good guys, I've talked to them a few times. Yeah, that would be funny.

    Voyagetrekkers, are you still operating out of Tempe? I might have to take the light rail over to there some day and look you up. Afraid I don't see well enough to be of any use though.

    Good deal, I'm near Camelback, between I-17 and Central. Maybe something like this will get me out of the apartment more. ;)

    Wow! i'm impressed with the first two episodes. The ship and the bridge look great, and I thought the actions of the space creature were hilarious!

    Keep up the good work!:bolian:

    Pretty fun.

    I liked most of them pretty well. Laser Swords at Dawn was really good.

    I get a little weary in the ones where the characters just argue and argue, but that's just my taste. The one with with the kids just felt like it was ended without a punchline, though.
