Screening of Sci-Fi and Star Trek-Inspired Short Films
Venue: DiverseWorks
Address: 1117 East Freeway
Houston, TX 77002
Phone: 713.868.2101

Date: July 25, 2009

Join Aurora Picture Show for a night of sci-fi and Star Trek-inspired fan films at 7 p.m. on Saturday. Members of Austin-based Starship Exeter, creators of one of the fan films in the program, will be in attendance.

Short films featured in the Not So Final Frontier program include everything from CGI animation, appropriated hyperspace scenes, and talking action figures to a short 16mm Star Trek fan film produced in 1969. Concluding the program is a modern day original fan-produced pilot from Starship Exeter entitled Savage Empire. The screening will be approximately 80 minutes in length and will be followed by a question and answer session with the Starship Exeter team.

Starship Exeter is a modern-day fan film project. Attempting to replicate the look and spirit of the original 1960's television show, the team behind Starship Exeter conducted research, wrote a number of possible story lines, storyboarded, created costumes and props, and shot live actions scenes themselves before editing and adding visual effects to end up with a series as close to the original Star Trek as possible. It took seven years, but Savage Empire from Starship Exeter is a show that no fan of the original Star Trek series should miss.

Saturday, 7 p.m.

Ticket Info: Tickets for the Not So Final Frontier screening are $7 for non-members and free for Aurora Picture Show and DiverseWorks members with an RSVP. For more information, visit www.aurorapictureshow.org or call 713-868-2101.

Although it says on their website that the screening is of their first episode, The Savage Empire, the Exeter members in attendance will be Scott Cummins, Joel Sarchet and Joe Azzato, respectively director, producer and actor on The Tressaurian Intersection (although Joel was heavily involved in The Savage Empire)

Hopefully they finally have the episode done, so many have patiently waited so long to see it finished.

Yes we were hoping for a "Ninja" release...
However someone posted on the Exeter web site that NEO FX was working on some shots and Jimm was still at it.

Hopefully before Christmas 2009

I found someone from Exeter is posting some "Behind the Bridge" videos on youtube. This looks very good w/ interviews with cast and crew! Part 1 was posted a month ago, Part 2 was just posted Sept.2. This is some movement in the right direction. Looks like there might be a Part 3 or more in the works. Here's the link.
