Renegades Fans-
This has been an incredible campaign. The outpour of support and well-wishes has been amazing. We've unlocked two Stretch Goals now and we're about to unlock a third. With less than 24 hours to go, if you haven't jumped in now, this would be the perfect time to do so, especially now that there's free stuff included with every pledge.
This is truly a momentous occasion, as Nichelle and Walter join forces for the last time to tell the story of Ominara's rise to power in the galactic underworld and her lifelong conflict with Prof. Steiner (Koenig).
Their ship travels the cosmos sometimes helping those in need and sometimes helping themselves to other people's treasures. Join the crew of the Icarus for this incredible origin story and get involved in a variety of ways ranging from pre-ordering incredible products, to getting producer credits. Jump in now, while you still can.
Below are the unlocked Stretch Goals with the next one on the horizon.
Some great stuff unlocked and with your pledges, shares, and posts on social media, everything helps to get us to the next level.

Hi, Renegades supporters,
If you've been following along, you've seen that not only are we now funded, but we are about to hit our first stretch goal, with hopefully more to come. We are only a little more than $3,000 away. That's awesome progress in a week and we still have another week to go. Let's keep posting and pushing so we can get you all some FREE STUFF!
Below is a video that includes an interview with producer Frank Zanca about Renegades: Ominara and the making of the production. (Fast Forward to 1 hour in.)
Tim Russ and Frank just did an interview today for Den of Geek. We will post that once it goes live. It's very exciting that the world has taken notice and that you're all taking part in it.
Post it, Share it, Give it Love :") - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/atomicstudios/renegades-ominara-phase-2
Though it looks like everyone is prepared to go through surgery, this is really Tim Russ and our co-producer going through shots on the Icarus bridge set in Laurel Canyon Studios, CA.
Thank you again for all of your support and diligence in making Renegades: Ominara a reality. Have a great week.

Thanks to your continued support of the project the world has taken notice. Hundreds of great media outlets have picked up the story and ran our press release. Everyone is really excited about the project that you're helping to create. Below are a couple of examples. You can click on them to follow the links to the articles.
We are now only $10k from the goal and shoot dates are being scheduled. Please keep sharing, posting, and tweeting for us. Just a few more pushes and we'll reach our goal.

We're hoping to continue Ominara's exciting exploits alongside her crew as they continue to battle Steiner and attempt to wrest the throne of the criminal underworld from Reza. All of these story points are set up in this episode and we're looking forward to all of you seeing it.
Returning Donor Level

Hi, Renegades & Nichelle Supporters.
Several of you have reached out to me about adding some perk levels that previous donors can get, since the perks are generally the same. There's only a limited amount of perks we can do for a film, but if anyone has any ideas for products, I'd be happy to consider them.
Below are autograph perks and the Nichelle autograph perk is for previous donors only as Nichelle's signature is selling for $100 plus each right now at conventions, etc. We have discounted it 25% and it will also include 8x10s from the new cast.
So, check out the Kickstarter page and you'll find the new rewards there. Also, please share the link.
Thank you so much for all of your input and support.

Production Continuing

Hi, Ominara Supporters,
This has been a very exciting project thus far. Despite the Governor of CA shutting down production, we were able to push some shooting days through. So we are just about halfway done with physical production. Of course, costumes, sets, props, etc. have taken up quite of time prior to actually shooting. The footage looks great and our actress playing the young Nichelle Nichols, as well as the rest of the cast has done an amazing job. As you can see, actress Loren Lott (Young and Reckless, American Idol) looks a great deal like Nichelle and the original Ominara concept art.
Loren Lott as Ominara
We have doubled the size of the script since our original campaign. In addition, we've added a new character that will be played by Jason Faunt, better known as the Red Power Ranger.
Here is the poster. As you can see, a lot of work and love has gone into this project to make it a great send-off for Nichelle. Please share this link, so we can continue with the next phase. We will be launching the Kickstarter for the second half of production in a few days. Please share and post the link below.
We're looking forward to all of you seeing it. You can help by posting and sharing the link above. Thank you as always for your tremendous support. Stay safe.
