Star Trek fan films are films and videos inspired by the various Star Trek series, but created by fans. Fan films vary in length from short clips to full episodes, some even comprising of several seasons of episodes. In the past, production technology and cost were major limitations to amateur projects, but in modern times, films are distributed cheaply via the Internet, and convincing visual effects can be created using home computers. What follows is a partial list of the many such projects available to the public.
