Star Trek: Reunion - Press Release

It is my pleasure to announce the most exciting project that Cerberus Films has been involved with to date.

Star Trek: Reunion.

ST: Reunion is a brand new, completely original fanmade series based in the Star Trek Online universe. (All of the stories have been designed so that they fit inside of established STO Canon)

 

Over the past two months, Myself, along with a team of Foundry Authors (User Generated Content engine in STO) from the Starbase UGC community have been working on this wonderful project. 

After the initial release of the teaser trailer last week, we have had well over 400 views on YouTube, and each day we keep getting more and more. The feedback from the community in general has been amazing, everyone is so positive about and it helps motivate the team to work even harder.

 

Every author has been assigned two episodes to write and make the maps/backgrounds for. We have 4 Foundry Authors in total, Sabredruid, Soriedem, CaptPFDennis and Cass.io.peia, aswell as well known FanFiction writer TerilynnS and editing Wizards Chaddy18 and Etherghost (who supervise the writing and are responsible for the majority of the editing respectively). 

Every episode is at least 30 minutes in length, some being as long as 50 minutes and there will be 10 episodes. The 9th and 10th are being collaborated on by myself and TerrilynnS.

 

Each episode will be fully voiced by a wide selection of people. The best thing about this project is that it's international, we have people from as far away as Canberra Australia, Manchester England, New Mexico U.S. and back to the Highlands of Scotland. Such diversity in people, makes for diverse stories, just like a real series.

 

Unfortunately at this time, the majority of the plot is still undisclosed, however I can reveal that the first Episode will air on Tuesday the 14th June at 5pm* (PDT) or Wednesday 15th June at 1am* (GMT) at www.livestream.com/cerberusfilms. Then once every two weeks. All episodes will be available in full 1080p at www.youtube.com/cerberusfilms a few minutes after the episode airs.

I can also announce the names of the first three episodes which have completed scripts.

Episode 1- The Gathering Storm (by Sabredruid)

Episode 2- Come Babel or High Water (by Soriedem)

Episode 3- The People of The Ice (by Cass.io.peia)

 

Every now and then we'll be releasing some sneak peeks at upcoming episodes and behind the scenes stuff.
