Official Release Trailer for L5!

L5 is a crowd-funded, independent miniseries project that began on Kickstarter.com.

Plot Synopsis:
Imagine returning from an exhausting adventure only to find that your home is abandoned, empty. Not just your home, but your neighborhood, your city, in fact, everyone, everywhere, seems to be missing. This is what happens to the crew of the first manned mission to Barnard's Star -- they return after awakening from suspended animation to find that their ship-board AI has sent them on a relativistic tour of the stellar neighborhood while they slumbered, dilating time so severely that nearly 200 years have passed on Earth. After coming to, they discover their vessel is adrift at LaGrange point 5, within visual range of a vast O'neill cylinder-colony. The night side of the Earth shows no lights, and no one answers their calls across all frequencies. They have no choice but to dock with the colony and explore its cavernous interior in the hopes of finding help. When they find the colony to be airless and devoid of life, the remains of human civilization baking in the Sun for decades, their predicament becomes even more dire. Following in the traditions of great legendary hard science fiction, their exploration of this relic of their own civilization will take them on a trans-humanistic and spiritual sojourn.

With an overall budget of $15,000, the Hemogoblin team worked countless hours in post production over a year to create the pilot episode. Our desire was to demonstrate how far you can go on a shoestring, outside the system, using disruptive innovation to build a film from the ground up.

Well, we are beginning to come out of our caves and see sunlight for the first time in ages. Exhausted, with bats in our beards and nearly penniless, we are finally approaching our release day for L5, living proof that cloud based, low budget production can produce wonders.
