June 10, 2023, was a very exciting day, Matt Miller announced the nominees for the 2023 Trekzone Fan Film Awards.

It was very tough to come up with the nominations as in most cases you could have nine or so fan films trying to fit into six spots and then four spots and it will be tougher to whittle the four down to one.
