“Nightfall”

episode 6 – April 2013

Synopsis: The crew of the Batavia goes down to Cententa III for a well deserved vacation when they’re suddenly disturbed by a distress call from Admiral Taylor.

“Nightfall” was supposed to be the pilot episode introducing the “Dark Armada”. The release date was delayed by several years, because the production turned out to be too ambitious. We came up with the idea to create several 5-minute shorts as a preview and to showcase the progress we made over the years. These shorts became the 3 episodes “Worst Nightmare” en the “Choices” two-parter. Eventually “Nightfall” was cut down to 30 minutes instead of the intended 60 minutes in order to complete the production.

“It’s Dark… Get Over It”

episode 5 – January 2013

This vignette was made using ‘old’ footage from 2007. The scenes were deleted from a later version of the script for the episode titled “Nightfall”. The vignette was released before “Nightfall” as a bit of a preview what’s to come.
