It is a common practice during special occasion celebrations to feature the evolution of the journey. This is often done in the form of a mixed media presentation of visuals, music, and of course language. We saw this featured in Tess’s wedding rehearsal slide show in Chapter 8. We see this featured at award ceremonies, retirement parties, graduations, the completion of projects, fund raisers, and other millstone events.
This 50th anniversary tribute to Star Trek is a montage of themes, ideas, and human experiences delivered throughout the many years and evolutions of the series. Through this method, the essence of the story is portrayed.
