Films

Paragon's Paragon (1974)

Star Trek fan films have been made since the 1960s by individuals and various fan groups but, before the advent of inexpensive digital cameras, editing and effects in the 1990s, most were on a simple home movie level. An early effort to achieve something more was John Cosentino's Paragon's Paragon, which was an unofficial adaptation of James Blish's Spock Must Die! , an early Star Trek spinoff novel. The film ran for an hour and was shot on 16mm film using a full-size recreation of the Bridge set. It also used a wide variety of film special effects techniques on a budget of over $2,000 ($12,000 in 2023 dollars) and received considerable coverage in Don Dohler's Cinemagic magazine for low budget filmmakers. Dohler subsequently used its crew to make his first feature film, The Alien Factor (1978).

Digital Ghost (2000)

Digital Ghost was a German-language Star Trek fan film set within the continuity of the Star Trek: The Next Generation movies. It is the story of two (previously unseen) Starfleet officers from USS Enterprise-E (played by Erich Redman and German Big Brother star Kerstin Klinz) delegated to test the next, completely automated starship, the Enterprise-HC. The film was directed by Thomas Wolff, produced by Joost van Wingerden, with CGI from Tobias Richter (later involved in production of ST New Voyages and Axanar). [4] [5]

Star Trek: Of Gods and Men (2007-2008)

A three-part mini-series directed by Tim Russ and starring several original Star Trek stars, including Nichelle Nichols and Walter Koenig. [6] The first part was released in December 2007; parts 2 and 3 were released in 2008. [7] [8]

Star Trek: Chains of Betrayal (2008)

A fan-fiction comedy film written and directed by Derek Howard and Racan Souiedan, the film is an episode of approximately forty minutes in length that takes place during season five of Star Trek: The Next Generation , soon after the events in "Unification". The script was written during the summer months of 2005. The film is non-profit in nature and was meant as a tribute.[ citation needed ]

Star Trek: Axanar (2014)

In 2014, fans and former cast members organized a fan-made short film called Prelude to Axanar , setting up a Kickstarter project with a target of $10,000, but which raised well over $100,000 instead. This short film was to be followed by a full-length feature film called Star Trek: Axanar, funded by a much larger Kickstarter project. Both films were to star Richard Hatch, J. G. Hertzler, Kate Vernon, Gary Graham, Michael Hogan, and Tony Todd, all mainstream actors who were veterans of Paramount's Star Trek franchise and the rebooted Battlestar Galactica . [9] Prelude to Axanar featured both new and familiar characters from the Star Trek universe:

The short film for Prelude to Axanar was released in June 2014. [10] In August 2014, the production raised $638,000 on Kickstarter, and writer-producer Alec Peters went into pre-production for the feature film Star Trek: Axanar. [11]

On December 29, 2015 the project was hit by a lawsuit from CBS and Paramount Pictures filed in Central California federal court, stating the Axanar works infringed upon their intellectual property by making use of "innumerable copyrighted elements of Star Trek, including its settings, characters, species, and themes." [12] In March 2016, Peters' Axanar Productions filed a motion to dismiss or strike Paramount and CBS's claims, saying the elements mentioned in the court filing are not protected by copyright and is seeking premature relief from a work, the Axanar feature film, that does not exist. [13] The motion to dismiss or strike was denied by the court and the case went to a jury trial in January 2017. [14] On January 21, 2017, the lawsuit was settled.

On June 26, 2016, during the Axanar lawsuit, CBS and Paramount released a set of guidelines for Star Trek fan films to follow. Notably, these restrictions require films to: be no more than 15 minutes long and have no stories longer than two installments (for a total of 30 minutes); play on YouTube without commercials; and all participants are required to be amateurs who have never worked on Star Trek or another licensee of CBS or Paramount Pictures. [15] The creation and release of Axanar would only be allowed on these terms. [16] [17] [18]

Star Trek: Renegades (2015)

Star Trek: Renegades is a fan-created project to create a pilot for a new Star Trek series. CBS declined to pick up the show. [19] Several former Star Trek actors appear, including Walter Koenig, Robert Picardo, Manu Intiraymi, and Tim Russ. It is set 10 years after Voyager's return from the Delta Quadrant. [20] Plans have been announced for a Renegades web based series. [21] In June 2016, the team announced that in response to new requirements on Star Trek fan films issued by CBS and Paramount Pictures, their upcoming film Requiem would remove all references to Star Trek. The series itself was renamed Renegades. [22]

Star Trek: Horizon (2016)

Star Trek: Horizon is set in Star Trek: Enterprise era, directly after the 4th season of the series. The film is about the Romulan War. [23] The Kickstarter campaign launched on April 19, 2014. The film was released February 25, 2016 to backers and was also on the internet.

In April 2016, co-producer Tommy Kraft issued the following regarding a proposed follow up production. Star Trek - Horizon sequel, Federation Rising, shut down.

"Earlier today, executives from CBS reached out to me and advised me that their legal team strongly suggested that we do not move forward with plans to create a sequel to Horizon. While this is a sign of the current climate that we find ourselves in with Star Trek fan films, I want to personally thank CBS for reaching out to me, rather than including us in their ongoing lawsuit against Axanar.

"It was conveyed that the reason CBS was reaching out to me was due to the legal troubles stemming from the Axanar case. Again, CBS did not have to reach out personally. The message I received felt more like they were giving me a heads up before we got too involved in another project, rather than a group of angry executives swinging a hammer.

"On behalf of myself and Ryan Webber, my co-writer and co-producer on Federation Rising, we appreciate your initial support and are saddened that we cannot bring you what we believe was a fantastic feature film. However, rest assured that Ryan and I are committed to continuing our storytelling partnership with an original project. We also welcome other fan productions and fan film lovers to join us on this new venture.

"While we initially planned to debut our Kickstarter for Federation Rising this Saturday, we hope that you will instead stand with us as we announce an original sci-fi project that Ryan and I have been co-developing in addition to Federation Rising. We’re incredibly excited to tell you about this completely original story that follows the ideals set forth by Star Trek that Ryan and I have been such huge fans and admirers of our entire lives."

- Tommy Kraft, Star Trek: Horizon creator [24]

What We Left Behind (2019)

In 2017, eighteen years after the Deep Space Nine finale, "What You Leave Behind", aired, Ira Steven Behr announced a crowdfunded documentary named What We Left Behind, deriving its title from the name of this episode (which itself is based on the Pericles quote, "What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others"), [29] which met its goal of $150,000 within 24 hours. The documentary reflects on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine's legacy, featuring interviews with the cast and crew of the series and speculating on what would have happened had there been an eighth season. [30] [31] It was released in 2019. [32] Cast includes Alexander Siddig, Avery Brooks, Colm Meaney, Michael Dorn, Nana Visitor, Rene Auberjonois, and Terry Farrell.

Machinima

Borg War

[91] An August 2007 screening at a Star Trek convention in Las Vegas was the first time that CBS/Paramount had approved the screening of a non-parody fan film at a licensed convention. [92]

Trailers

Bring Back Kirk

When Captain Kirk was killed in Star Trek Generations , fans started the "Bring Back Kirk" campaign. The original Bring Back Kirk teaser trailer was released in 2001 and became popular at conventions, such as the 2003 Starfleet Ball and Brazilian Trek Con at São Paulo.[ citation needed ] A second trailer, released in March 2004, was mentioned in Star Trek Monthly and The New York Post 's Starr Report. [93]

The attitude of the Star Trek copyright and trademark holders toward fan works has varied over time. In early 1996, Viacom (which purchased Paramount in 1994) sent cease and desist letters to webmasters of Star Trek fan sites that contained copyrighted film clips, sounds, insignia, or other copyrighted material. [94] [95] In the lead-up to the release of Star Trek: First Contact , then-president of Paramount Digital Entertainment David Wertheimer stated that Viacom was targeting sites that were "selling ads, collecting fees, selling illegal merchandise or posting copyrighted materials." [96] Under threat of legal action, many websites shut down. [96]

Jennifer Granick, a San Francisco criminal lawyer who went on to champion cyber rights, felt that the unofficial sites should be covered by the fair use doctrine in U.S. copyright law. [94] In 1998, then-UCLA associate professor Howard Besser claimed the entertainment industry as a whole was, and cited Viacom's actions toward Star Trek site webmasters as an example of, "exploiting concerns over digitization and attempting to reshape the law by strengthening protection for copyrights holders and weakening public rights to access and use material." [97]

Star Trek fan films operated in an informational vacuum, since Paramount has made few official statements regarding their existence. Fan filmmakers have generally kept a low profile, hoping not to draw attention to themselves. However, with the demise of Star Trek: Enterprise in 2005, the fan film community began drawing more attention in the media, [98] [99] and even a certain amount of recognition [100] from the entertainment industry.

Star Trek: Phase II , one fan series, has established an understanding that Paramount must be properly credited as the owner of Star Trek-related intellectual property. [101]

On December 29, 2015 (weeks after announcing Star Trek:Discovery) CBS and Paramount Pictures filed a lawsuit in California federal court against Star Trek: Axanar stating the Axanar works infringed upon their intellectual property by making use of "innumerable copyrighted elements of Star Trek, including its settings, characters, species, and themes." [12] In June 2016 Paramount issued guidelines to assist fan-made productions from litigation; in summary:

Because of the guidelines issued by Paramount as a result of the Axanar case, Star Trek: Renegades made changes to the script of their upcoming film Requiem to remove all references to Star Trek. The series itself was renamed Renegades. [22]

A fan film is a film or video inspired by a film, television program, comic book, book, or video game created by fans rather than by the source's copyright holders or creators. Fan filmmakers have traditionally been amateurs, but some of the more notable films have actually been produced by professional filmmakers as film school class projects or as demonstration reels. Fan films vary tremendously in quality, as well as in length, from short faux-teaser trailers for non-existent motion pictures to full-length motion pictures. Fan films are also examples of fan labor and the remix culture. Closely related concepts are fandubs, fansubs and vidding which are reworks of fans on already released film material.
