In the upcoming weekend of March 5 and 6 we will host a `behind the screen weekend’ for the first time. During this weekend on our regular location in Bleiswijk, our volunteers will work on the special effects of the episodes Nightfall and Out of Time. Bring your own PC or laptop to help us with post production. For people who rather don’t spend their times behind a screen we have other activities like making costumes. Our volunteers may bring others with them. The lunch is included.

Are you an experienced 3DS Max animator, and would you enjoy turning the models made by modellers such as Mark Rademaker (Clawhammer) and Gwen Demulder (SCaRa) to life, and work aside Ryan Carhart (Creative Inc)? Please sign up at info{adt}darkarmada{dodt}nl. Of course you can send us an email requesting additional information. Click on the ‘read on’ button for more information.

It’s hard to believe it’s already been 5 years since we started working on Dark Armada. Over the years we’ve produced several short episodes that you can view and download in our download section and of course there are many more episodes to come!

We made a short video for our 5 year anniversary. You can view it here:

 

In October last year Walter Koenig (Chekov in Star Trek) visited The Netherlands for the 25^th anniversary of The Flying Dutch. Fan Trek Productions was asked to provide the video surveillance means and experience to make a DVD about Walter’s visit to our country and the event. We agreed to help out and the DVD’s are being printed as we speak and will be sold by TFD soon.

Every single detail got recorded! And Ronald edited a short video with the shots that didn’t make it to the DVD. A little peek behind the scenes of the Dark Armada team at the anniversary.

Lastly I want to take a moment to tell you about a sad thing that has happened: Andrew Koenig, the son of Judy and Walter Koenig, took his own life after he was missing for a while. We would like to express our deepest sympathy for their loss. For more information about Andrew Koenig and how to prevent suicide, visit http://www.walterkoenigsite.com/memorial.html
