    To comply with the CBS Guidelines, fan-films may not be released on DVD. Correct??

    Origins wasn't a fan film.

    From the IGG

    Origins" is first of many great projects that will be produced by Axanar Productions. This documentary is a must for any Axanar fan as it gives a behind the scenes look at the making of three different Axanar projects, as well as a deep dive into building the mythos of Axanar.

    [​IMG]

    1. The Making of Prelude to Axanar

    An extended documentary looking at the making of Prelude to Axanar.

    2. The Four Years War

    A look at the various incarnations of the Four Years War with Alec Peters (Axanar), John Thiessen (FASA's The Four Years War supplement) and Stephen Fender (The Four Years War novels).

    3. Shooting the Vulcan Scene

    A behind-the-scenes look at the shooting of the Vulcan Scene from the unfinished AXANAR feature film – a project that launched a 13-month legal battle between Axanar Productions and CBS/Paramount

    [​IMG]

    4. The making of "Heroes"

    In November 2015 the Axanar team shot a vignette about Garth of Izar on the sets of Star Trek New Voyages.

    This documentary is being produced by the award winning Axanar team of Alec Peters, Robert Meyer Burnett and Diana Kingsbury and as a documentary, is fully protected by Fair Use Laws and not subject to any CBS guidelines.

    OK, that is a bit bigger than I expected when someone said it was in a strip mall, but I'm pretty sure it's still not even close to the kind of real studios you find in places like LA or Vancouver.
    I'm assuming the novels are fan fiction? I obviously don't have every official novel memorized, but I know enough to recognize the titles and authors, and I don't recognize either in this case.

    It is, but it's famous fan fiction, and at one point it was the basis for AP's entire Axanar concept.

    Ya, that is just a regular warehouse space . There is no soundproofing, the electrical supply is way to small (see the breaker box on the left) , there is no proper rigging for the lighting, etc.. I could go on but you get the picture. ;)

    We filmed Project: Potemkin in an almost identical space in Albany, Georgia, from 2013 until the end 2014. 2000' sq ft was large enough for our bridge, ready room, transporter room, Klingon bridge, engineering room, sickbay and brig.

    Is that a Captain America shield. Does that mean he’s . . no, he wouldn’t would he.

    As for the boxes. Could be 9mm shells. Maybe he’s expecting another visit from Paramount.

    Indirectly related: Lucas the Spider creator put copyright claims against Daddy Spider, so all the Daddy Spider creator removed all his videos from YouTube.



    What's sad is reading the user comments on YouTube and seeing how much misinformation there is about copyright law.

    EDIT TO ADD: Well, it wasn't all bad. Here's a couple good exchanges:

    Daddy spider easily falls under fair use and parody. I have unsubbed from the Lucas channel personally. Unfortunately though, the daddy spider channel is totally empty thanks to the strikes. Due to the number of strikes as well, I have a feeling daddy spider will have their channel deleted by YouTube.​

    It's not a parody though, what Daddy Spider did was called a derivative. A parody would be to make fun of Lucas the Spider or even try to make some kind of commentary on Lucas the Spider but Daddy Spider did none of those things. Daddy Spider imitated Lucas and though it was fun, it was illegal​
    ------------
    I THOUGHT BOTH ACCOUNTS WHERE RUN BY THE SAME PERSON​

    I did too at first.....People dont understand that is exactly why the creator of Lucas went after Daddy Spider's creator. If the Daddy spider videos suddenly took a dark turn and started becoming politcal or racial at some point than that would make viewers think that Lucas' creator is doing that. I dont really blame him. They were cute but not the same quality.​

    So, it appears that a few people actually do understand the rational behind it all.
