BBK Trailer shown at Starfleet Ball Reunion Con

A special custom-made BBK trailer was recently shown at the Starfleet Ball Reunion Con. 

After it was intially screened by the staff for approval, it was so well-liked that it was reserved as a finale to cap off the entire convention! 

Reaction was, to quote a con-goer, "Fantastic!"

"Committee member Bea... said that it was something she would be happy to play at any convention she was part of, and the tech team said that they were impressed and asked some technical questions that sadly I was unable to help with.

The attendees who got a chance to see it... also said that they were impressed and asked for more information.

So it got big thumbs up and I hope I will get a chance to see [the official BBK Trailer #2] at Starfleet Ball X in February.

Thanks to all involved! -- David Zabiela"

BRING BACK KIRK TRAILER A SMASH HIT AT CONVENTION!

In Sao Paulo, Brazil from February 28th thru March 1st, there was a huge national Star Trek convention.

Gustavo Leao, who is a major contributor to various Star Trek sites, and our official BBK representative in Brazil, attended as a speaker.

While there, Gustavo presented a new Bring Back Kirk trailer that was constructed exclusively for this convention. It features new never-before-seen CGI footage that gave people a taste of what is to come in the second official BringBackKirk.com trailer that is still in the works.


Gustavo Leao provided us with this great report:

"Here is my report about the screening of the BRING BACK KIRK trailer at the Brazilian Convention yesterday and this morning. I have to tell you, people LOVED it. And they loved it so much we had to screen it TWICE yesterday, plus one more time today. People applauded the trailer a lot (see photos of this below) and asked if the trailer was for some movie or episode, and he had to explain that was made by fans for a campaign for bringing back the Captain Kirk character to Star Trek and so forth. ...After seeing the trailer and getting the flyers at the stand, we can tell you that everybody now supports the BBK campaign!"

Here are some pictures from the convention in regards to the trailer:

We thank the convention-goers for their enthusiasm and support for this campaign.
We also give much thanks to Gustavo Leao for his contribution in presenting the Trailer!
