I like the design. It definitely looks like a cross between Forbidden Planet/Lost In Space and Star Trek. And it looks like it will actually be in color, which is very unusual these days. 
"Polaris"
- Thread starter Admiral Buzzkill
- Start date
Due to an unavoidable schedule conflict, Meghan King Johnson is unavailable to perform the role of Valerie Young in Polaris.
We're disappointed to lose Meghan, but none the less very pleased to announce that the part will be played by Gina Hernandez:
Her recent work has included appearances on “Ugly Betty,” “Law & Order” and feature films “Precious,” “It’s Complicated,” “Wall Street 2″ and “American Gangster.”
Gina currently appears as a nurse on the Showtime hit “Nurse Jackie” and an FBI agent on USA Network’s “White Collar.”
The full casting announcement is here.
In other news, we're on schedule to begin shooting on December 7th, 2009.

Excellent!

Wow! I can't believe they're already that far along.... Looks promising.
Love the uniform! It's like the offspring of a Forbidden Planet costume and a Starfleet uniform.
We have the best cast and crew ever.

I helped...for the whole of something like four hours.
The set looks amazing. I hope you guys will be able to store or save those consoles somehow. They're beautiful.
I wish I could save or store the experience of doing this, of meeting and working with such an amazing group of people including you. It's going to be over far too quickly, for me.
For us all I suspect.
Love. Love the submarine lighting on the bridge.
The only bad part is that it doesn't show off to much of the set, at least from the stills.
Then again, knowing how little of the set there is...
