Star Trek: Renegades

So this is happening as a kickstarter thing.
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/145553614/star-trek-renegades

Their kickstarter page thingy said:

We, the team who brought you Star Trek: Of Gods and Men, are proud to announce Star Trek: Renegades, a professionally produced pilot intended for presentation to CBS as a possible online series.

This film will be funded by the generous donations of fans from around the world. All monies will go directly to the costs of making this high quality broadcast pilot. It is our hope that CBS finds "Star Trek: Renegades" to be a worthy endeavor and will continue the Star Trek franchise and legacy as an online episodic series (or on their own broadcast or cable network).

Should CBS pass on Star Trek: Renegades, we will explore all avenues to release the film on a strictly non-profit basis. If we are successful, we would like to produce future episodes via donations and release them, also as non-profit, since we have a five year story arc planned.


If you've not seen Star Trek: Of Gods and Men you can view it on their Youtube channel Here.

All in all I'm interested in what they'll do with this story. It's also nice to know that the JJ Abrams movie didn't destroy the potential for the regular timeline to have more story.

Wow!  Didn't know about either one.  Very cool!

The ROTJ collaborative thread is a wealth of ideas, both on how to edit Return of the Jedi, as well as how to collaborate in an edit.  Emanswfan has taken leadership of the project.

I wonder who else they'll be adding to their cast. Since the only ones listed right now are those that they knew they could contact beforehand. Personally I'm interested to see if they get someone to play B'Elanna's and Paris' kid. As it's set 10 years after Voyager and Klingon kids grow up faster (see: Alexander) she could have stuff to do on one of the ships.

They updated their cast list on the main page and in their updates section added some rare footage of Neil Armstrong.

I obtained Of Gods and Men thanks to this thread. Now I'm excited to see this new one. Nice to see Trek actually boldly covering some of the same ground in a new fashion instead of boldly going where Star Wars has already gone before.

There's some interviews they've added to their site.

I've only watched a little bit of some of them. In particular the Tim Russ and Walter Koenig interviews.
