Night of The Living Trekkies

This is the trailer for a the new book from Quirk Books.

Talk about a crazy/AWESOME departure from our usual fare! Thanks to our buddies Opie Cooper (who was a part of our 48hr Film Project) and Justin Lutsky (who directed Action Hero’s Guide to Saving Lives) we got to play around in zombie-territory for a bit.

It was a full group effort from our team – James did the branding for the trailer and the set graphics, Drew did motion graphics, Phil did set extensions (3D / effects) and along with our friend Akash Ramlogan consulted on the visual effects for the zombie kills. And I used my role as associate producer as an excuse to just annoy everyone.

Oh…if you pay close attention you may recognize a few familiar faces from Road Tripping.

UPDATE 09-24-2010:
To say we’ve been thrilled by the response this trailer has gotten would be an understatement! Considering all the time and careful thought that went into the project, our ultimate gratification comes from knowing that the die-hard fans of both Star Trek and all things zombie-related have given it a massive thumbs up. After 10 days YouTube the video has received over 100,000 views, and more importantly a lot of passionate support.

I think those long hours and late nights paid off!
