Star Trek: Secret
Voyage.
The Original Series—or at least the late 23rd century—tends to
be the focal point of today's fan productions; but that doesn't
mean Kirk and Spock must always take the lead. There was a gap
between the end of the five-year mission and the refit of the
Enterprise as we saw it in The Motion Picture. What happened during
that time?
Star Trek: Secret Voyage, a creation of Craig Sheeler, is the
story of a special mission carried out aboard the historic 1701 but
under the command of a different captain with a different crew. In
this episode of Continuing Mission we're joined by Craig to learn
more about the series, various aspects of production—including
creating visual effects, composing original music that's true to
TOS, shooting in the desert, the premise behind the first two
episodes, and more.
