"The Polyphemus Program" -- a Star Trek fan production

[@NickCookActingScribe]

Interesting follow up. Always a pleasure to see the Potemkin crew back, not to mention a script from David Eversole. I enjoyed it, and the Descartes joke made me laugh. :)

[@ChristinaMoore79]

Dude! I did not even know this was out today -- and I am in it! So freaking excited to see this first on-screen role at last. It turned out so very well!

I'm really happy for you that you got to be in this! Congratulations Christina!

@@joshuairwin2016 Thank you, Josh! Now I just gotta find a way to get on screen in one of your films when you start another Star Trek project. Though that one Avalon credit got me an IMDb page!

You did amazing!

[@whitecatcosplay722]

This is simply amazing. Happy to see everyone look stunning on screen just as they were that day. And post production and edits are amazing. ❤

[@wsims257]

this was awesome. I cannot believe what you've done to the production value. The lighting, framing, the sound, all amazing. Always loved your story telling method. Its as long as it needs to be.

Welcome back Captain and crew of the Starship Potemkin. The best Star Trek stories are the ones that make one stop and think ... mission accomplished. I like your new Science Officer. I think Tina nailed the performance as T'Sov, especially when she began displaying the emotions unleashed by the mind meld and having to regain control afterward. Very, very well done all. Bravo Zulu as we say in the Navy.

[@MJ201254]

Tina is the consummate professional. We were all blessed to have been able to work with her!

[@whitecatcosplay722]

Thank you! It was a pleasure playing T’Sov and I hope to dig into the character more

This is probably the episode with the uniformly best cast I've had the pleasure to be associated with. There is a level of excellence from Jeff down to the extras--what a pleasure to write for these actors and to watch them make it so much more than words on a page.

[@thecopycat7153]

Good to hear that awesome theme song again and seeing him back in action and good job on the machine aliens of that planet in my opinion they were very emotional in their own way and they had a very cool looking appearance to them thumbs up to all of you for a great job you did in making this fanfilm 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️!!!!!!!!!!!

[@davideversole9767]

Thanks for the kind comment. The machine race's emotion of course came from Girgory's infecting them.

[@ronhanks4610]

I absolutely loved this, it’s a great story. Well done to all involved and thank you.

Thank You! David Eversole, Randy Landers and the Awesome Team Potemkin for the delightful trip down memory lane with many of my favorites of the past. Please Sir, May I have some more?

I've always enjoyed Jeffrey Green's performances. He's definitely one of the best actors in all of fan films.

[@MJ201254]

You're right. Jeffery is the reason I got involved with the project.

[@ChristinaMoore79]

I was so freaking stoked to meet him! It was almost like meeting a celebrity for me because I had seen all of Potemkin more than once!

Just had this latest episode pop up on my KZbin channel feed, and this fan-made film is a true loving ❤️ tribute to Gene Roddenberry's vision of StarTrek ! Well done all involved! I look 👀 forward to seeing 👀 more forthcoming installments coming soon, I hope 🙏?

[@Potemkin1711]

@allenlovell1604 we have 122 fan films on line. This particular cast and crew have 37 of them. I recommend sampling all the films and figuring out which crew, all or any, touches your inner Star Trek fan. Our channel is www.KZbin.com/potemkin1711 Hope you find many as enjoyable as this one.

[@ryanc5572]

Loved the story, and T'Sov laughing when going through Alec's memories was great 😂 Very interesting theme of the robots not really knowing what is wrong with them. A concept of individuality would be alien to something previously not aware of it, indeed.

[@richardgroberto]

Great acting!

[@quoniam426]

Good that Capt Grigory still has a close enough Vulcan comfortable enough with him for mindmeld. I guess if the Borg want to assimilate that planet, they'll have some problems...

[@lisanidog8178]

I have this burning question for years. Can someone explain Star dates to me? Are they month dates, year dates or just numbers? Thanks to anyone who can solve this mystery for me.

[@Potemkin1711]

Here are a couple of theories: We look at it as YYMM.%oY For example today , January 9th is the 9th day of the year. So 9 / 365.25 = .024 X 100 = 2.4 So the Stardate for today would be 2501.2. This system works for the TOS Movie Era, but not the TOS era, nor the TNG Era. We added a 0 as a prefix for our stardates of our productions set in 2300. So anything we wrote or filmed today would be 02501.2. Others have other ideas. Here's a couple of KZbin videos as well. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bHeQonSDrMacopo and kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2rQpouJjaqShJI Your mileage may vary, of course. :)

[@lisanidog8178]
