SPACE COMMAND is a new and original feature film series from multi award-winning writer/producer/director Marc Scott Zicree, Academy Award and Emmy Award winner Doug Drexler and digital film pioneer Neil Johnson, poised to enter new territory in the field of science fiction film making. A grassroots financing effort – coordinated exclusively through the crowd-funding site Kickstarter – has generated more than 2.5 times the initial budget required to produce the two-hour maiden voyage of the new series. All accomplished in under a month. "It all started with an experience I had writing and collaborating on a fan-produced Star Trek episode called World Enough and Time," explained Mr. Zicree. "That episode was nominated for Hugo and Nebula awards – the first independent project ever nominated for those awards." "If we had the right friends, the right heart and the right talent, we could make something that could stand the test of time." Space Command's stellar team includes legendary designer Iain McCaig (The Avengers, Star Wars) creating unique character looks. Composer David Raiklen (I Am Omega, X-Files). Plus actors Katherine McEwan (Humanity's End), Armin Shimerman(Buffy, Deep Space Nine), Ethan Phillips (Voyager), Doug Jones (Pan's Labyrinth, Hellboy) and Christina Moses (Star Trek New Voyages).
