This is fantastic! I have been a follower of Axanar for sometime now - backed both the Prelude and the full - I cannot wait! Cheers for the good read!
Out of all the "fan made" or "independent" Star Trek films, this is by far the best - and most in keeping with the Prime Universe!

I also backed Prelude and Axanar itself. I was blown away when they had sample ship video for the Prelude kickstarter and when I saw the quality of production I instantly backed Axanar feature as soon as it went live.
Honestly with JJ trek now prevalent, and on it's own merit - entertaining, it pales to the long history the franchise has established which JJ's world seemed to have thrown out the window. So we are left with this avenue - the fan made films, to enjoy the Prime universe and I have a feeling that Axanar is just the start of many more like it.
If you haven't checked them out yet, I strongly encourage it! Thank you Remissus for the write up on this, I really enjoyed the article and thank you Torinth for editing!
Perhaps someone could approach the Axanar staff for an interview down the road?

I'm surprised at the talent they've got lined up and the quality of the visual effects.

That is the best Star Trek I have seen in over 10 years. We should have been given this instead of the J.J. Universe.

BREAKING UPDATE TO THIS ARTICLE:
As of this weekend, Garrett Wang has joined the Axanar cast. Most popularly known for his role as 'Harry Kim' in Star Trek Voyager, he will be playing the Klingon commander of the very first D7 class ship to enter the war. I for one am really excited to see Garrett joining in; Harry Kim was always one of my favorite Voyager characters, due in no small part to Mr Wang's acting.

With the dismal performance of Nemesis and Enterprise, as well as the phenomenal success of JJ's, I had kind of sadly written off all hope for the prime universe, and sort of assumed I'd be having to tell my kid about Trek as a 'back in my day...' kind of thing.
This gives me hope.
Fandom, talent, and a low budget, has brought a great deal of creativity to this piece.
Plus, it has Micheal Hogan, as in Colonel Tigh, in there, which is a selling point by itself!

Just watched the Prelude, its been a long time since Trek has given me goosebumps. Looks like i'm going to need a few cold showers to recover from such awesomeness.

I watched Prelude last night and I have to agree. It far exceeded my greatest expectations for an independent project.

Absolutely, before watching Prelude last night, I was expecting the usual fan film quality stuff, but that was amazing.

The pledges have really rocketed over the last two days. 3 separate individuals have each pledged $10,000. I wonder if this kickstarter campaign will reach half a million?
