Nichelle Nichols met me when I was a 10-year-old Star Trek fan, when the show was on the air, and was incredibly kind to me, giving me signed photos and copies of her own scripts from the show.
This inspiration led to my becoming a writer-producer-director in TV and writing for such shows as Star Trek -- The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Babylon 5 and Sliders.
Now I'm making a new science fiction pilot called Space Command and want to shoot a very special scene with Nichelle, which will be a wonderful gift to her fans.
(You can watch the work in progress first hour of the Space Command pilot at https://youtu.be/zv-tx3DdKSg)
Total cost of the shoot, including cast and crew (I'm not taking any salary myself) will be $15,000.
Time is of the essence -- we'd like to shoot as soon as possible -- and it would mean so much for all of us to be able to make this happen.
Thanks for all your help!
