I attended the screening you had yesterday of your documentary and it was wonderful. The mix between "serious" interviews with the various cast and crew members and the stranger side of the Star Trek universe was great.

If you are looking for critical commentary on the style of the film, my only comment would be that I found the AT&T commercial-style handheld camera in the early part of the film (on the convention floor) to be somewhat distracting... mostly when it was rotating (pans and tilts seemed okay).

All in all, a great job... The overall tone of the film definitely conveyed the quality of the Trek shows that bring the fans together, the love the fans have for Trek and the sometimes strange ways in which they express it.

Congratulations, I look forward to seeing the final cut.
