KINGSLAND, GA USA – Effective immediately. STAGE 9 STUDIOS will now be known as THE NEUTRAL ZONE.

Why the change? In late September 2018, a cease and desist was issued to the STAGE 9 Virtual Reality UK Enterprise-D venture (https://stage-9.co.uk) just prior to Kingsland’s Fan Appreciation Weekend. While this was certainly NOT the STAGE 9 STUDIOS in Kingsland GA, and through no fault of anyone, that event seemed to cause a bevy of confusion among fans that our studio had been shut down. After extensive damage control, and even with the successful attendance of our weekend, the experience made us believe that a name change was in order. In fact, confusion still abounds even as this announcement is being written.

The good news is we’re still here and we’re still growing! We have 6 fan Productions scheduled to film at the studio between now and the end of March, a wedding in February on the bridge, and Fan Film Appreciation Weekend 2 in April! Check out what’s coming by clicking on either the OTHER FAN FILMS link or CALENDAR.

In addition, we will be filming several of our own vignettes to be introduced as Tales from the Neutral Zone! These will be really cool stories with different ships and crews, and explores their adventures when they enter a strange area of the neutral zone!

We’ve also posted a SITE CONSTRUCTION link with pics of the construction of the Kingsland studio from its beginning.

Check out the new Neutral Zone Studios at www.neutralzonestudios.com! And stay tuned because there are more very cool events and changes on the way! And don’t worry. If you’ve bookmarked our Stage 9 Studios website (www.stage9studios.com), you will automatically be redirected to the new website.

THE NEUTRAL ZONE STUDIOS contain a full-scale suite of Constitution class starship sets including: the bridge, transporter room, engineering, sickbay, briefing room, captain’s quarters, auxiliary control, a 100 foot-long corridor, a near-by green screen facility, and much more!

From The Bridge! Stage 9 Studios Manager Ray Tesi: an interview on the Hangin With Web Show

(audio interview with RAY TESI)

This is a MUST HEAR interview with the man who purchased the STAR TREK CONTINUES sets!  Learn the answers to such questions as:

• How is a person who needed to crowdfund his fan film last year now affording the thousands of dollars of monthly rent on the warehouse?
• What life-changing event(s) convinced Ray to take a leap of faith and make this purchase?
• Why will there soon be a fan film titled “I Smell Egg Rolls”?

Many thanks to Jonathan Lane and Fan Film Factor to getting this out of me!

KINGSLAND, GA USA – Stage 9, the studio that has been the home of the award winning web series STAR TREK CONTINUES since 2013 has transferred the set ownership to Ray Tesi of STAGE 9 STUDIOS, LLC. The new entity will remain in the same building where STAR TREK CONTINUES filmed its 3 vignettes and 11 full length episodes.

Vic Mignogna, executive producer of Star Trek Continues, says, “The main priority for me was to see that these beautiful sets remain intact where we built them and know that they would be preserved and well cared for. I’m extremely gratified that Ray Tesi has ensured that these priorities of mine are accomplished.”

According to Ray Tesi: “This is a life-long dream-come-true for me. This is NOT a money-making enterprise, but an opportunity to share the passion that millions of STAR TREK fans have for the series! What Vic and his cast and crew have created is remarkable. The mission of STAGE 9 STUDIOS is to pay homage to the legacy that is STAR TREK, and remain respectful to STAR TREK CONTINUES & CBS.”

STAGE 9 STUDIOS contains a full-scale suite of Constitution class starship sets including: the bridge, transporter room, engineering, sickbay, briefing room, captain’s quarters, auxiliary control, a 100 foot-long corridor, a near-by green screen facility, and much more!
