Certainly looks like an improvement. Normally they look like high school plays, but this seems to have progressed to community theater, or perhaps even off-broadway. No interest in watching it or anything, but they do seem to be getting better.
And Admiral Chekov? It took Sulu 20 years to make captain.
CG has come a long way for low budget stuff, but I actually thought the CG looked a bit sub-par even for what it is. I put that down to being over-ambitious rather than a lack of talent, because there was actually a ton of CG throughout. The acting and dialogue wasn't particularly good considering there were a lot of semi-known actors in there.
Star Trek Continues is pro all around, although that's much more understated sticking to the TOS style, so it's obviously not an apples to apples comparison. Star Trek Horizon is looking really good so far considering it's all essentially done by one guy, although the acting in that is clearly amateur, and I'm not sure if the script will be much better than this.
I don't mean to knock anyone, as it is what it is, but I expected a little better from Renegades given all of the people involved, the money raised, and the time it took.
