Marc Zicree Kickstarter for new SF Movies/Series

[NotSoWize]

Marc Zicree who wrote "Survivors" in season one of B5 and also wrote for ST-DS9 & Sliders is running a Kickstarter campaign for "Space Command" a new series of SF films. He's already almost reached his goal and with 58 more days to go should wind up blowing it away. That would allow him to shoot more than one of the films right away. Most of the featured actors are from the ST universe rather than B5, but I bet some of you will want to back this project.

I met Marc a few months ago. Very genuine person. Hoping for the best for his project!

This is a great idea and a shout-out from JMS for Space Command would be well received by the B5 community.

According to Marc Zicree's presentation they've already got some well known names onboard:
Armin Shimerman
Bill Mummy
Ethan Phillips
Robert Picardo
Rachel Luttrel

Model maker extraordinaire Steve Neill is building a practical model of the Clippership for 5% of the shots...

And it's sure to look great with With Doug Drexler in charge the visual FX.

Both of those links appear to be dead.

Power to the fans. Nice to see this doing well.

Just checking -

The RPF link leads to a series of Steve Neil's youtube videos documenting his fabrication of the Clipper Ship:

Your right about Doug Drexler's link, he dropped out of the project due to artistic differences.
Unrelated but even more distressing is that he took down his entire blog.

Fear-not, the project continues...
Marc Zicree just released this youtube clip of Mira Furlan and Jelena Mrjda and Space Command will be at the San Diego Comic-Con.

This really looks very promising! More meat on the bones here than something like Lantern City (which I also hope makes it to fruition). Will be exciting watching this develop.
