Title: Project Pandora (Working Title)

Synopsis: From the perspective of a derelict spaceship starting back up after something arrives in close proximity. It would be like a trailer to a sci-fi mystery movie. It might be a bit vague of an idea that requires a lot of planning to make a spaceship, but keeping the camera view to just the bridge would limit the things that need to be modeled.

Keeping the camera from the bridge, a second ship will arrive from hyperspace waking up the ship. The mystery will come in from the startup sequence of the sleeping ship. I think in this case some short audio from synthetic voice could help out. I want to use the title of the project ambiguously to invoke a sense of wonder at what the purpose of the ship is supposed to be used for.

Objective: I want to use the title of the project ambiguously to invoke a sense of wonder at what the purpose of the ship is supposed to be used for. Ideally making the audience have a sense of wanting to know more if there is follow up work.


Target Audience: People who enjoy sci-fi and mystery.

References: Reference images from Stargate Universe have a very strong steampunk design to them and something like Firefly might work as good references too.
