In a special three part edition of The Trekzone Spotlight, Axamonitor’s Carlos Pedraza and I will dissect the ‘golden age’ of Star Trek fan films. From the humble beginnings of Hidden Frontier to the dark days of Alec Peters pushing forward with the copyright and IP lawsuit he found himself facing at the end of 2015, we’ll discuss it all and try and piece together where and how it all went so far off course.
We’ll also look at the fan film guidelines that split the Star Trek fan film community further and ponder what the future may hold for fans wanting to make their own live action Trek series.
