A
very influential factor in the success of sci-fi has been the large
advance seen in movie-making technology. If you can imagine it, these
days, it can be done with the right special-effects equipment and
crew. We are seeing a new age in movie-making, where the limitless
storytelling once thought only possible in novels is now being made a
visual reality through special-effects on the big screen. Even
independent movie shorts released on the internet have impressive
quality, proving that the cheaper and more available effects
technology becomes, the more the entire movie-making industry is
propelled forward. Sci-fi TV series in recent years have far more
impressive special effects and higher production values than
big-budget sci-fi movies did only a couple decades ago. We are seeing
a new age in sci-fi, where hi-quality digital films can be privately
made, stored, and edited without the need for expensive, specialized
editing equipment—we can do it all at home, on a single computer,
and then put it online for anyone to see! Sci-fi is truly in a period
of Renaissance!
As seven alien races struggle to co-exist in an uneasy alliance, the Inter-Stellar Union sends Union Guard agents on missions to preserve the crucial balance. These specialized operatives must do what regional security cannot, dealing with smugglers, pirates, terrorists, and even greater challenges in order to bring stability to a universe that needs it desperately. Without the Union Guard, the races will not be prepared to face a looming alien threat they can only hope to defeat together.
