Star trek Ascencion an animated DS-9/Voyager era spin off series needs your help.
For 300 years the United Federation of Planets has been a peaceful society endeavouring to improve the quality of life, expand knowledge for its citizens and the interstellar community, exploring the unknown regions of deep space. However, beneath this utopia lies a deadly organisation that undertakes extraordinary measures to protect the Federation no matter what the cost. It’s existence is not acknowledged, but it has absolute power, and answers to no one. The Starship Swiftwind is their defense during a bloody war the Federation is losing.
One man must uncover a terrible secret, face adversity amongst his peers and stop the most devastating weapon conceived from falling into the enemy’s hands. But success often comes with huge sacrifice.
I am Solarbaby creator of Starmada an animated series I made using goanimate Star Trek Templates. Over 3 years I learned how to use flash to animate my own stuff. I'm ready to leave GoAnimate and animate my own series
I have written an outline for a spin off series set on The USS Swiftwind an experimental ship that is under control of Section31 until events lead the ship on an amazing adventure into another galaxy. I wanted to explore the darker side to Trek that DS9 opened up. I also wanted to set this series away from the milky way entirely- to explore totally new stories and not be bogged down with canon. This is absolutely not a Voyager remake. There is an overall story arc that will explore the lives of it’s motley crew in flashback to explain how they came to serve on the ship.
This is definitely NOT going to be a section31 series. That would get boring. Instead it’s going to have a crew pushed together under extraordinary circumstances. Some have very colourful and murky backgrounds and have been recruited in a last chance effort to save their careers. Some are good officers who have come unstuck or hit rock bottom. Some have made bold choices for their beliefs and defied Starfleet. Some were simply just in the wrong place at the wrong time.
I am going to deal with an issue Voyager royally screwed up. The friction between 2 crews forced to coexist. No reset buttons. No cosy wrap up resolutions at the end. At times it might get uncomfortable, at times it will take you places no Trek series dared to go.
Yet at the core of this series it is a ship on a mission of exploration with a story arc that will remind you this is Roddenberry’s Star Trek.
I have an overall arc written and the pilot. I have yet to write the script as I am still tweaking the plot.
Here’s where you can help.
I need 3D modellers, musicians, voice actors, flash artists, web designers and story editors, audio engineers, FX creators Although I pretty much have the series laid down, I'm open to suggestions to improve story, dialogue, character development etc. I haven't really done anything for the series animation wise- except for designing the ship http://www.cygnus-x1.net/links/lcars/quantum-class-starship.php. I hope to create a modern marvel comic style look to the characters.
If you are interested then please email me with examples of how you can help at goanimator at gmail dot com
Thanks a lot peeps. Live long and prosper
