Horizon, a superior Fan effort
4 March 2016
Warning: Spoilers
This is a fan film produced with a budget just over $22K. The Executive producer, Tommy Kraft, wrote script, built props (some he CAD designed and 3D printed), sewed the uniforms, filmed, directed, created the VFX/CG, edited, wrote and played the musical score by himself. With the help of some talented professionals, family and friends, he was able to finish the movie in just over 3 years.

Horizon is set during the same time as the series "Enterprise" and Capt. Archer (Scott Bakula) and is done in cannon making use of and references to prior productions (Enterprise, STNG,Star Trek 2009). The movie is very dynamic and adept at filling in holes in the time-line and expands on the history of the Iconians. Paul Lang does an admirable job as Capt Harrison Hawke. The other actors interact well and create a believable and a bit tongue in cheek real-life feel.

Tommy's effort is an example of what can be done with a bit of passion, drive, and the desire to excel. It is deserving of praise as this is literally something out of nothing. Tommy should be recognized for his accomplishment and hopefully have great career in film and movie production.
