Star Trek Movie

In 1989 a group of year 11 drama students made a Star Trek film as part of a mates GCSE project. This is the end result. I played Spock by the way. My hair gets longer throughout as it was made over the course of a year!

To give a bit of a co-star commentary on this, a few things worth pointing out.

#1 The video quality is poor due to being an old tape and also it's about a 4th generation copy.

#2 Probably the only level you'll enjoy this on if you don't know any of the cast is trying to recognise some of the dialogue from the original films.

#3 Look out for a scene where there's an explosion created using a white fountain type firework. This was meant to be on bench mats but we forgot the bench mats and destroyed the drama room carpet. One of the out takes shows the drama teacher picking at the debris with a vein about to pop in his head.

#4 The final scene is in black and white as it was meant to be a showdown scene between Kirk and the head alien, but we couldn't get the colour camera and had to borrow a clapped out old one - with no microphone. The scene cuts off as the clip hits 10 mins.

#5 If you can follow the plot of this you are a better man than me. Some of the dodgy editting I guess doesn't help.
