Star Trek Raven Indiegogo campaign

[Draculasaurus]

I had totally forgotten about this production until tonight. They have so far released three vignettes. There kind of ok as long as you remember that it’s a very low budget fan production.

Look out for the Starfleet officer reading his lines of a Star Trek I-pad. If you look carefully you can see the script resting on the pad!

I know it’s not great but for some reason I want to see more!

I know what you mean. For some reason beyond objective quality, I want to keep watching.

They just did a go fund me for a studio space, making a tos/ next gen era bridge set. He was asking for like 3K sadly they only got a 20.

Usually that means the show has heart.

Were you the one who gave them the $20?

I would not go that far

I just got the FB announcement that STC is starting a new campaign shortly. I would have expected fan-films to lay low until the Axanar trial is over. I wonder how the situation will impacts people's willingness to donate if they think there's a chance CBS will just shut it all down.

actually yes, I did, and the guy making it cares for Trek and the ideal a dual purpose set was interesting

Not really sure what the point of this promo is?

Does not seem very respectful to other fan productions or CBS

Well that's bizarre.

OK this is a fan film I can get behind. Quite honestly it seems fun. I had more fun watching those three vignettes than the first five minutes of Renegades. Probably becuase it's not trying to be something it's not.

ProTip: If you're going to call out the other productions in a 14 second clip, shoot more than 10 seconds of footage and try and hold the camera still while you do it.

It’s bizarre to say the least. I think that the camera movements might have been for effect, but in either case it does not work well. Also am pretty sure that I recognize where the background comes from. I do the visual effects for my Church and I am certain that I have used that background loop before.

 

[Squiggy]

That must be a hardcore church to use such a hardcore background.

Whatever.

Yes, hardcore

Whatever!

When I used it I slowed the background loop down a little to fit the music tempo. It was only used once before I sent it to the recycle bin. Most of the motion backgrounds I now use are of better quality and I have learnt how to make my own.

The point that I was trying to make in my original post is that it appears that ST:Raven have used a commercially available motion background loop, which I confess, is not particularly good quality. Also, I not sure if the licence covers its use here.
