Hello! I played the First Officer, having been a long time fan from watching Next Gen after school to Discovery/Picard. It was a real joy and a privilege to play this role, wear the uniform and work with the very talented Aaron and his team. Hope you enjoy the film!
Well done great stuff.
Nice 'Riker' beard.
Well done; hope Aaron can bring you back for further adventures.
Hey Paul! We're super glad to have finally had the opportunity to work with you after all these years. Thank you for your wonderful work on Outbreak! :) Also, I took your advice about the Borg for Film #3...
Nice job!
excellent job on the film!
Thanks for enabling subtitles. 👍
I have seen soo many fans production. But this??? I loved all the acting. No wooden characters at all, the dialogue so fluent and smooth. I Loved this. Please create more
Thanks so much for watching :) So glad to hear you enjoyed it!
@@voyagesfanfilm yes i really enjoyed. It just too short hehehe
That's due to the Great Acting Classes provided by Immunocorp.
Thank you, thank you... I'll show myself out...
One of the better fan films I've seen. This could've easily been an episode of Voyager or TNG. Nicely done. 🖖
Thanks for watching :)
Only if they'd had run for 25 and 33 years respectfully. :)
@@voyagesfanfilm -
YES , its very Voyager & TNG , better than most modern "Trek"
They could have done this in Voyager with the Vidians. This is the kind of cure the Think Tank would implement for the phage.
I don't usually comment on Trek fan films but this was Great Work! Very professional looking and acted. The Starfleet doctor, Kaitlin Okely?, was specially outstanding!
Kaitlin was great, wasn't she! Thanks for watching :)
“I’ll even waive the licensing fee.” Beautiful.
Haha! Thanks for watching :)
This is unbelievably awesome. This is so professional for a fan film. I'm a little late seeing it because it was released a year ago but wow. I love everything about this production. I'm an indie fan filmmaker too but this blows me away. Bloody well good!
Thanks so much :) Really glad to hear you enjoyed it!
FINALLY... A British First Officer or any officer in Star Trek...!!!!
Thanks for watching :)
Poor Malcom Reed....
Hah! :)
@@MarkLLawrence he was only on the first Warp 5 Starship! don't mind him.
To quote a Star Trek icon, "Fascinating" Well done to all for providing a quality item that reminded me of DS9's "Far Beyond the Stars". Thank you for making something in keeping with the traditions of Star Trek at its heart.
High praise indeed! Super glad to hear you enjoyed it :) Thanks for watching!
@@voyagesfanfilm high praise well earned. LLAP!
Let's face it, that whole "Prime Directive of Non-Interference" thing is no where as much fun as an enthusiastic Lieutenant with a phaser and an attitude!. Well played!
Thanks for watching :)
She seemed quite feisty.
Warp-capable society and/or subspace radio - prime directive does not apply.
Technically speaking she violated no rules as she was invited by the government to come and find a cure. An that what she did.
@@reubenmorris487 feisty but also pivoted to providing the coverstory for the CEO to save face and make the deal..
Amazing how quick the crickets came back from extinction on the planet in the end scene.
Haha! Thanks for watching :)
They have an advanced technology. I'm sure they preserved the genetic codes of all the species as they went extinct... and would immediately restart the ecosystem. First step is unicellular, plant and insect life...
I don't remember if they extinct all the fauna and flora or almost all. I also couldn't find the line(s) about this.
I fell right into The Star Trek Universe with this one. Ill have to check out the others. Thank You.
Amazing to hear that reaction! We hope you enjoy the other stories :)
Nice Job. I can see the thought and passion that went into it. Oh and using a Nova class as a hero ship *Chef's kiss*
Thank you for watching :)
This is what Star Trek is suppose to be. A great story that is relevant to today with sickness, pharmaceuticals and corporate greed. Very well done!
Thanks for watching :) Glad you enjoyed it
Well done and very charming. I love these 'day in a life' fan pics.
Thank you for watching :)
This planet needs a crew like yours NOW more than EVER. I usually cringe when watching fan films. NOT SO watching this one. I thought it was really well written and it spoke loudly to relevant issues we are dealing with here on Earth Today.
BRAVO!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :)
@@voyagesfanfilm thank you for making it.
Good to see Starfleet still teaching early 21st century history.
Thanks for watching :)
This was so much fun to be a part of. So nice to see so many people enjoying it and, like anything, is a little divisive across some elements of production, content and performance. Whatever the views it's got people talking :)
Thanks for taking the time to watch it and comment and share it around. Aaron and team do a fantastic job and put in a great deal of effort!
-- Science.
You're 100% right, Kaitlin! It's always nice to see that our stories can great conversation and glad to know people are still watching :)
Loved your performance! Between the kiwi accent, the implacable need to do good for others, and the snappy dialogue, your character gave me big Omega vibes from The Bad Batch. Great work!
Now THIS is how fan films should be done. It feels like I'm watching a real episode of Star Trek. I've never clicked a subscribe button so fast.
Thanks for watching :)
Congratulations Aaron and everyone involved. Another enjoyable film!
Thank you so much for your support, Nick! Glad to hear you enjoyed it :)
That's a nice looking Nova class! I can't remember how many days I've spend on making this class starship for Dark Armada. Too much I think :D
It sure is one funky ship! Thanks for watching :)
Ha! Did you make both versions, the new one also, the Rhode Island?
Indeed, its a very nice model! I wish it had more complicated interiors but...I always want a bit more fancy in my models!
@@SGUDistantHope Yes, I also made the refit one. I don't remember if they ever used it. I even made a tiny aeroshuttle that detached from the saucer :D
This was a terrific film with a timely story. Kudos to the main actors for their well done portrayals.
Thanks so much for watching :)
Tight episodic writing in the SF melodrama style. Well done. You told a more compelling story in 21 minutes than the professional Paramount writers tell in 10 hours today....and you didn't litter it with fan service Easter eggs to convince audiences this is a Star Trek story.
The subject handling is exactly what better SF writers of the past did. You took a similar to contemporary conflict and set it in an alien but similar world. You allow the audience to see the repercussions and what ifs for themselves.
Bravo.
Thank you so much for watching :) Glad to hear you enjoyed it!
TNG era however I couldn't help but notice the pins you're wearing are the same as the back of the Monster Maroon jackets from TWOK era. Just a wonderful tribute to the classics. Well done and hope to see more of you all. LLAP
They sure were - we had to make a last minute change from face masks and we needed a quick 3D printed alternative. Thanks for watching :)
The uniforms all fit pretty nicely so I knew this was going to especially good.
This is the kind of Star Trek episodes they need to make. Different kinds of adventures on different types of ships and crews.
Thanks for watching :)
I'm only at 12:40, but almost cried for The Commander, it's SO well written and acted.
So glad to hear you had that reaction :) Thank you so much for watching!
Very well done from. The acting to the special effects, loved the stations colors inside an designs
Thanks so much for watching :) Glad to hear you enjoyed it!
My Heart for Kaitlin Okely.
Thanks for watching :)
Short but exciting. Well done. Reminds me of a Perry Rhodan story of a Galactic medical corporation that secretly infected planets with diseases, then provided life saving services, at a profit, until found out.
Thank you for watching :)
I have see this Channel today at first time, and have view this episode at first.
Its one of few realy very good Star Trek Fan Production in newer time.
The Story written in a good old Star Trek tradition to reflect actual events, in this Case the damn Covid crisis.
The Props, the Sets, the uniforms, all making with many details and empressive quality.
No bad greenscreens Backrounds...They are using Sets in most times!
I love that Inmmuncorp has his own unique Style.
And to the Actors, youre have make a damn good Job.
Thank you so much for watching! We're super glad to hear you enjoyed it :)
Very good and in the spirit of star treks of old with a message led story. Well acted with good special effects. Well done.
Thanks for watching :)
Just found this now. VERY WELL DONE! Great story and drama. THANK YOU!!!
Thanks for watching :)
I was pleasantly surprised at how good the acting was. Impressive.
Thanks for watching :)
This has been the best star trek show I have seen in years, thank you so much for making it:)
Thank you for watching :)
Bravo! What terrific production value, sets, costumes, CGI, and especially the story and acting. This is truly excellent work and I hope you’ll continue making more episodes!
Thank you for watching! :) We'll have another film out hopefully before the end of the year.
OH MY GOD, YOU GUYS ARE GREAT !!!!!!!!
Glad to hear you enjoyed it :D
That was a lot better than I expected it to be. In fact, it was genuinely great! A simple Trek premise condensed into a half-hour format. Well done.
Love the CGI too! I'm a huge fan of the Nova class, so that was a special treat!
Glad to hear you enjoyed it! :) Thanks for watching
@@voyagesfanfilm I've been watching your other work, starting from the beginning. Thank you for creating content in the Enterprise-era. It's so overlooked despite being such a rich source for stories. Your props, lighting, and set design were/are all fantastic. It felt like coming home to my favourite era of the franchise.
The second Star Trek episode exposing corporation corruption involving the health of a planet.
Thanks for watching :)
They're so lucky the Federation found them before the Ferengi did. Would've done a hostile takeover.. No corp is ever so bad another one can't move in and make it worse!
This was very well done. Nice to see a Nova class ship get some spotlight too.
Thanks for watching :)
The story seems to be based on "A cure worse than the disease". The first adventure in the Star Trek Adventures Mission Compendium Vol. 2. We played it on a Nova class too. Thanks for producing this. Brought back a lot of fond memories.
It certainly is, based on the story by Fred Love! We came across it a few years ago and thought it was frighteningly close to what is/was happening in the world and perfect to adapt :) Thanks for watching
I have to say, this is one of the best fan-based productions I have seen in a very long time. Excellent and very well done!!!
Thank you so much for watching :) Glad you enjoyed it!
This was such a great film!!! Thank you for jumping back in the saddle to make this amazing Trilogy!
Glad to hear you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for watching :D
I have to say this is the best Fan Film acting I have seen. Excellent work.
Thank you for watching :)
I love how the Governor has kept up the tradition of Star Trek civilian clothing, and that spinning prop at 5.22 is above and beyond the call of duty!
'No, but it made me feel better.'
Yes, the note on the Governor's costume was 'find the ugliest upholstery fabric possible' in purple. And we spent FAR TOO LONG working on that centrifuge prop that we probably should've haha! Thank you for watching :)
@@voyagesfanfilm Where are the blinking rods though, every lab need one of those
Cast and crew and the development team great show!
Thank you for watching :)
This could be easily a secret leeked footage, especially in 2022, really well done 🥰. One small hint: to make the lab look even more accurate, one always needs a random device with 2 (red) neon lights🤭
Haha! We would have LOVED to build that :) Thanks for watching :)
Algorithm brought me here, but this is one time it did it's job properly.
Delightfully surprised by this.
Keep it up!
PS - nice CG!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :)
The quality of these shows is phenomenal!! ❤👍🏻👏👏🤠
Glad to hear you enjoyed it! :)
My case for more EMH's! Well done crew!
You're right, holograms don't catch viruses! Unless of course they were computer related viruses... :P Thanks for watching :)
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant! Just as Gene Roddenberry used future settings to address real problems here on Earth, this was the best expose of the modern pharmaceutical industry corporatocracy that I've seen ANYWHERE...
I see what you did there, very well done with such limited resources! I hope this can become a fan series instead of a single video.
Thanks for watching :) 'Outbreak' is actually the second story in our anthology series so you can find the previous film 'Beyond the Sun' on our channel!
Loved the show. I can't believe this is the first time that I have seen Outbreak. Well done to all. I thought the story line was strong and acting was great. You have me as a subscriber.
Thank you for watching! Really glad to hear you enjoyed it :)
A great short story. Somebody is a good writer.
The original storyline was written by Fred Love, for the 'Star Trek Adventures' role-playing series back in 2019. It was adapted into the fan film you just saw! Thanks for watching :)
One of the best fan films I have ever seen!!
High praise indeed! Thanks so much for watching :)
Thank you for the Voyager look and feel.
No worries :) Something not often seen in fan films so nice to do something different!
Omg this is amazing! I just discovered Star Trek Fan Productions and this is my first time watching an episode! Everything about it is amazing! Great writing, great acting! Could have easily been an actual Trek episode! Impressive 👏
Wow this just appeared in my feed. Well done, looking forward to more episodes.
Thanks for watching :) Film #3 should be out by the end of the year all things going well!
This was an excellent production! Personally I think this is on par with all the commercially produced episodes over the years great work!
Thanks for watching :)
This was fun. It had all the hallmarks of a professional production and one of the best fan films I've seen. Although the storyline is truncated by virtue of the 20 minute format, it was well-paced and held your attention. Like all good Star Trek it was topical, and managed to stay just this side of preachy, probably because the young Starfleet scientist (don't know her name) was feisty and likeable. And all the Aussie accents bring back happy memories of Farscape. Will eagerly check out the rest of the playlist.
Thanks for watching :) Glad to hear you enjoyed it!
Once again Star Trek most importantly mirrors the issues of our contemporary reality. Thank you all for another very impressive and very inspiring Star Trek fan film. 🖖🏻🖖🏼🖖🏽🖖🏾🖖🏿
Glad to hear you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching :)
@@voyagesfanfilm You’re welcome.
This was awesome. Star Trek with the story telling that made it great. Relevant social issues told to the point. Something absent in todays Star Trek series. Well done and can’t wait for more episodes
Thank you for watching :) Glad you enjoyed it!
The commentary on the pharmaceutical industrial complex is spot on! Very well done 👏 acting was very good as well! As they said in the 1900s. A patient cured is a patient lost.
Thanks for watching :)
This was great! Nice to see the Nova Class put up a fight! I really like the film and hope you do more.
Thanks so much for watching! Glad to hear you enjoyed it :)
Put up a fight and opened up a can of woop ass. That was a nice touch.
Nicely done. It felt much like a TOS episode. Revealing the villian early on hampered the tension of a solution. Delaying the villian's identity would have created a better "who-did it" mystery. But it was fun, acting was competent and believable, pacing was good. Well done to everyone!
Thanks for watching :)
Huh! I enjoyed this much more than I thought I would. Great story, great acting and nice looking for a fan film, well done and looking forward to another!
Thank you for watching :)
Best new episode of star trek I've seen in a while. 👍
Thank you for watching :)
Definitely much better from "Discovery" and "Picard" last few episodes, I can tell you that 😉
One of the better fan productions I've seen! Well done you! LL&P!
Wow, VERY nicely done - Excellent - BRAVO.......
Thanks for watching :)
Hey. I just discovered your channel & watched "Outbreak". I really enjoyed it very much. The story was done great, but you've wonderfully captured the "Voyager" era style and look.
Thanks so much for watching! Glad you enjoyed it :D
Congratulations to all the team who done it.
Thanks for watching :)
This episode reminded me of the episode Critical Care (VOY), where the doctor is forced to work on a medical ship and his treatment times controlled by a computer. Cytoglobin for everyone!
Thanks for watching :)
yeah that was a good episode of voyager
This is an excellent fan-produced Trek episode. It's very timely given what we went through over past two years. It touches upon many of the ethical issues debated during our own pandemic (e.g., Should Big Pharma companies allowed to make a profit out of vaccines and new treatment for a novel virus, should the government put its entire population in an isolation/lockdown your entire population in order to protect lives & preserve public health or should you learn to live with the virus? etc). In true Trek tradition all these ethical questions are being questioned and addressed on the background, not "in your face."
IMHO no Trek series hasn't had an episode that discussed a virus outbreak/pandemic and its consequences to given society in a serious manner. "TNG's "Naked Now" and "Genesis" treated virus outbreaks more like a parody rather than a serious reflection. Voyager did introduce us to the Vidiians as an alien race whom struggled with centuries-old pandemic that has changed its entire society, but presented them as villains instead of a homeworld that should be helped by Voyager and its crew.
Very pleased to see that this fan episode did manage to portray a new virus outbreak seriously and also best portrayed how would a Federation ship and its crew sent to help out would've reacted to what do they find once they landed and the ethical issues facing them on the ground. Well done!!
Thank you so much for your response! Super glad to hear that you enjoyed it.
'Outbreak' is based on an excellent little story from the 'Star Trek Adventures' roleplaying series, and was scarily similar to the pandemic the world is currently going through so we thought it was a perfect story to adapt as a fan film, especially in this current climate.
There was an episode on voyager with an pandemic where only the higher class was treated
@@mammutMK2 Interesting. Do you know the episode's name?
Very nicely done. I really enjoyed this fan film. Thanks again for fun entertaining.
This was really good. Done very well. I enjoyed the story. Great job acting. I hope to see more!!!!!! God bless
Super glad to hear you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for watching :)
I love the concept of anthology Star Trek fan films like this and the others you have produced. Bravo.
Thanks so much! Glad you're enjoying it :)
Excellent! Thank you all!
Thanks for watching :)
Love the story and the acting was great and of course the scenery and the CGI was on point.
Glad to hear you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for watching! :)
Definitely enjoyed your video. I sincerely hope you make sequels to this.
Thanks for watching :) No sequels to this story but Film #3 in this series of anthology stories will hopefully come out later in the year.
I very highly enjoyed this episode and cannot wait for more to come. That was very well done thank you again.
I'm impressed a healthy BMI of all actors involved in this fan production this is a genuine compliment.
Thanks for watching :)
Absolutely brilliant episode. Very well done! I look forward to future episodes.
Glad to hear you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching :)
Outstanding effort. Very well done. /
Thanks so much for watching :)
Awesome!! Produced really great!!!More please :)
Thanks for watching :)
NICE! Classic trek. LOVED IT! 😁👏👏👏
Glad to hear you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :)
This is the first I've even heard of this fan series and I really liked it. Well done!
Glad to hear you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :)
Excellent story, acting and visuals.
There's a couple of plot elements inspired from other Trek episodes but you combined them in a new and entertaining way.
Thanks for watching! Really appreciate the support :)
This deserves a lot more views!
Spread the word! :) Thanks for watching
Some excellent storytelling in near perfect vein of TNG, etc. Great work everyone. You all should be proud.
Thank you for watching :)
awesome job to all of the cast and crew... absolutely amazing!!!
Thanks so much for watching, really glad to hear you enjoyed it :)
What a fantastic story, I Loved this, More please.
Thanks for watching :)
I finally was able to watch this. Very well done!
Damn we have another winner this episode was so amazing I wish there was more. Keep up with the great work that y'all do 😊
Thanks for watching :)
That was some great acting! This could have easily been an episode from the newer Star Trek franchises. Well done!
Thanks for watching :)
I really enjoyed this thank you so much! ❤❤❤
Thanks for watching :)
I enjoy seeing new fan productions. It's one of the great things about Trek is that it is such a big universe it can have so many stories like this in it. My only suggestion would be to have the uniforms tailored professionally for the Starfleet people. Other than Phase II and New Voyages, other fan productions' biggest issue they could fix relatively simply would be the tailoring.
Unfortunately we are a small production and we don't have the scope to custom-tailor our uniforms. All our actors have a costume fitting with existing stock and those are taken in or out as best we can, but the reality is that we can only work with what we've got and the time available. Thanks for watching :)
@@voyagesfanfilm í understand the limits, I've been in small productions before myself. It was just constructive criticism. Another good thing is you have actual sets, whereas other productions had just flat backgrounds. I hope you guys make more episodes of your series.
The first officer was great. I'd like to see him be made captain of the Explorer in a future fan film. Maybe the existing captain gets promoted to admiral or something, with the onset of Klingon and Dominion tensions... just some ideas. Excellent work.
Unfortunately the actor who plays the First Officer character has since moved back home so we won't be seeing him in our final story. Thanks for watching :) Glad to hear you enjoyed it.
He’d have liked that too, thanks for the comment!
I am so happy I ran into your channel. Give me those sweet sweet star trek vibes 🎉
Glad to hear it! We've got plenty more where that came from :)
Excellent Aaron , bravo to your cast and crew :)
Thank you so much for watching :) We really appreciate the support!
This was well done! Congrats to all-well written and acted!
Thanks so much for watching :)
