Great job on the episode!


Aww, David there will be many more opportunities for you my friend Wink

Seriously, the episode is really quite wonderful. Another fantastic tip of the hat to the effects — KICK ASS!

And yet another tip of the hat to that crazy redhead at the helm... tell her I said HEY!

Just wanted to pop in here and say congrats again on the release. I really enjoyed the story, and I noticed how well everyone is starting to settle into their roles.

Nobody knows as well as the folks who try to do these sort of productions just how much effort is involved, or how much it depends on the people who volunteer their free time for little or no payback. As a result I'm not going to comment on any of the areas that may need a little work, because I know from experience that these are things you're already aware of and striving to improve. What I will say is well done, and enjoy your well-earned kudos. You guys will continue to go from strength to strength, and I looking forward to joining you on that ride. Smile

Couldn't have put it better myself. ;D

Congrats on your second release!

Thank you guys very much!

What matters to me most is that so far people have been enjoying the story we've set out to tell. In my opinion, that's what this all boils down to.. You can have the cleanest green screen key or real sets on a sound stage, spectacular CGI, and all the other bells and whistles but if you don't have a compelling story that draws people in, you don't have anything!

Nick, I'm also looking forward to you joining us on that journey as well! Wink I think I speak for the group when I say that we all are actually..

Well said Jay, I couldn't agree more. Flawless keying means nothing if the story isn't there, and your story is definitely there. Smile

And ditto on the journey. Wink

Really enjoyed your second part, of course its got issue's but as you stated you can have the best sets ect and be let down by the story, yours is a very entertaining story. great job looking forward to your next episode.
Oh! do I sniff a crossover here between your crew and the Intrepid?

Awesome! I love this story! The production, music, and everything are great and I can't wait to see how this plays out...

In other news, I was with some friends at Panera in Livonia a while ago and overheard a group of people talking about Star Trek. When I was getting ready to leave I approached them and asked if they were familiar with OSIRIS. They were, and they asked if I knew Mary. Wink They spoke very highly of the production and were nice to chat with. (They turned out to be organizing the World Steam expo.)

Looking forward to more. Keep up the great work!

- Carrie

It's Carrie B., the Sarah Bailey who moved a little too far away! (But I must say that the new Bailey is fantastic!!) It was fun working with all of you and definitely awesome to see how the final productions look, especially knowing how much work goes in to them.

... I got to watch the second part of Eclipse. I'm going to have to go back to part 1 at some point, but while part 2 is still fresh in my head...

1. Very good.
2. I liked the story line.
3. The actors need to cut down on the flitting back and forth with the eyes. They should have something fixed to look at/focus on, as in a real situation or conversation.
4. The Captain seems too concerned with being politically correct, as opposed to a military officer. The suggestions for courses of action seem to be coming from the junior officers.
5. While I'm on it... any doctor locked in the brig (or cargo bay) when a wounded comrade is brought in would probably level anyone in the way while going to their aid. This is the type of medical officer I want to serve with.
6. It would have been better (I think) to have some sort of ruse (attempt) to tamper with the cargo bay force fields. The mutineer/commander should have and would have been looking for this attempt anyway. No one in their right mind would think the captain who just lost his ship would be "just hanging around".
7. Sorry, I don't remember the character names (that's why I have to go back through Parts 1 & 2 again).
8. If a crewman can gain access to the cargo bay undetected through a hatch, WHY can't everyone else just leave. This would have provided a significant element of surprise.
9. OK. Enough.
10. Like I said, VERY GOOD!
11. Since I am NOT a participant in the movie industry in any fachion other than watching them, please take these comments with a grain. This is just what I look for in movies and TV series. Rolling Eyes

When's the next one coming out? Very Happy

Now, back to Criminal Minds.
