The first four months of  2018 have seen slow but steady progress on Axanar.  As you all know, the lawsuit settlement with CBS allows us to make two more 15 minute episodes of Axanar.  These will be Episodes IV and V of The Four Years War.  With much of last year taken up by the settlement, closing the studio in L.A. and opening the studio in Atlanta, it wasn’t until the end of the year that we started making progress on the next two episodes.  So here is the latest:

Axanar Script Locked

In February we announced that the script of the two 15 minute episodes was locked.  What does this mean?  You can read all about it on our blog here: https://axanar.com/axanar-script-locked/

New Director of Fulfillment

 In February, our Director of Donor Relations, Diana Kingsbury, got some help in the form of Natalie Armstrong Gill, our new Director of Fulfillment.  Natalie will help get all the perks out as we finally get the Indiegogo patches and the Blu-rays after we film.  While Diana has done amazing work helping donors over the past 4 years, being that she is still in L.A. and the studio in Atlanta, we needed someone to help with the actual shipping of perks.  You can read about Natalie here: https://axanar.com/axanar-crew-interview-natalie-armstrong/
