I'm working on a series of "Star Trek" parodies, that covers several installments of the franchise. The main focus is on "Voyager," but I plan to hit DS9, TNG, ENT, DISCO and "Picard" as well.
I've been using the title "Spoof Trek," which works perfectly for me. Here's the problem.....I’m greedy and don't wanna share. Yet.
I'm paranoid that a title as generic as "Spoof Trek" will just be inviting other people to jump in right away. That if I post a "Spoof Trek" installment for "Voyager," someone else will immediately go, "That's a rad idea, I'm gonna write a 'Spoof Trek' for TNG!" or whatever.
Mind you, I'm not saying that I plan to cover every episode of every "Star Trek" series by myself, or that I won't be open to collaborations or contributions down the road; but I havea few parodies planned for nearly every series, and want to lay down the ground work before anyone else jumps in.
Before anyone brings it up, I already know about the video parody called "Spoof Trek" from the 90s, and I don’t care about that.
I've tried coming up with a more unique title, to no avail.
The best thing to hear would be that "Spoof Trek" is so lame and stupid of a title that nobody else would want to use it. I can only hope.
Am I fretting over nothing?
