June 8, 2015: 4 Days to the Dark Matter Premiere! Tons of Dark Matter goodies: cast featurettes, videos, and behind the scene pics!

4 days to the Dark Matter series premiere!  Some of the cast and I will be live tweeting the premiere (both east and west coast airings!) on Friday, June 12th at 10 p.m., so get ready!

Let’s start by meeting the crew courtesy of these individual behind-the-scenes featurettes…

A shot from one of my favorite scenes from episode #102.  Watch for it!

New sneak peek videos from the gang at Space Channel:

“We can do more.  Commit to something.”

“Do you think you can do a better job?  Didn’t think so.”

“You’re saying it was me who screwed with everyone’s memories?”

Executive Producer Jay Firestone oversees the action, with 1st A.D. Brandon Tataryn and Executive Producer Paul Mullie.

A friendly reminder from the gang at io9:

Director T. J. Scott on set for episodes #101 and #102.

Director T.J. Scott heads up our read-thru.  Roger Cross (Dark Matter’s SIX) is in his default mode: happy!  Line Producer Norman Denver, on the other hand, looks like he’s received some troubling news.  Hope it’s not budget-related.

The corridor’s colors, texture, and build give it exactly the look I was asking: “Think Nostromo”.

Testing the emergency lighting…

It’s like The Shining meets Alien!
