[QUOTE]Originally posted by MrNeutron: [QB] Boy, these guys are just asking for a Cease & Desist letter from Paramount... I don't think the effects are all that impressive. Hell, that nebula effect is the first shot is clearly a flat stuck at an angle with a texture map on it. And the way the Enterprise moves...ugh. As others have mentioned here, I think what sucks most about these fan productions are the writing and the acting. The acting's the toughest thing to fix, because chances are you have to rely on friends to do it, and people who act even semi-professionally are probably not going to be interested in doing a frebie. (I recently shot a short film, but I have a lot of actor friends and one agreed to do it for fun...lucky me!) The scripts...oy. I watched the Exeter film "The Savage Empire" and I then read their online draft for another episode "The Mighty Galvanaut", and both exhibit all the signs of amateur writing. No understanding of basic story construction. No understanding of conflict or theme. Characters who talk at each other rather than to each other, and bad sitcom level "banter" passing for characterization. Well, hope they're having fun doing it. [/QB][/QUOTE]
