New "Starship Exeter" Released

(July 1, 2005) — The first part of Starship Exeter: The Tressaurian Intersection has been released and can be downloaded at www.starshipexeter.com. The entire episode will be released in serial format and distributed via the Internet over the next several weeks.

Tressaurian Intersection features James Culhane as Captain John Quincy Garrovick of the Federation starship Exeter, Holly Guess as Jo Harris, Michael Buford as Cutty and Joshua Caleb as the Andorian communications officer B’Fuselek as well as Elizabeth Wheat as Vandi Richards and Gary Peters as Kosnett.

The video was produced by Jimm Johnson, Josh Johnson. and Joel Sarchet, and directed by Portland, Oregon resident Scott Cummins. It continues the deep-space adventures of the crew of the U.S.S. Exeter, introduced in Starship Exeter: The Savage Empire.

Upon its initial release in December of 2002, Savage Empire attracted attention and praise from genre and mainstream press outlets both online and in print.
USA Today hailed it as “A fine example of the heights that can be reached in online productions”, while the SCI FI Channel's online news service called it “better than some of the ‘official’ Trek that's been produced”, adding that “Everything about the episode broadcasts authenticity”.

A mention of The Savage Empire on www.slashdot.com in January of 2003 resulted in an upsurge of demand so great that Apple Inc., which hosts www.starshipexeter.com, had to shut the site down for six hours while mirror download servers were set up.

Starship Exeter is an Exeter Studio production. Exeter Studio is a non-profit corporation organized in the State of Texas for the purpose of creating science fiction, fantasy, and mystery stories for development as independent film, video, and audio presentations.

Well, I loved the crashed ship in the new teaser - excellent work, man.

Thanks from all the folks who worked on that sequence. It wasn't CG, though -- a combination of an extensive digital matte painting by Bruce Jensen, effects work by Jimm Johnson and a crashed saucer model by Tom Sasser,

Nice work overall.

looks professional, great work.

Anything new about the Exeter?

Bumping Old Threads ~ Read Before Posting
This is mainly for new members.
