We Value Your Input

The truth of the matter is that, between 2006 and 2010, Trackers was developed and written as a series. There is a total of 110 episodes. The team visited 36 different parallel worlds, some multiple times. Rather than option Trackers and risk losing our rights, we decided to convert it into a web series and produce it ourselves, thus maintaining control over it. In 2014, I proceeded to break it down into the three main plots and produce only these. This meant slashing some 50 episodes. There is a problem with this. Many of these episodes contain displacements and re-directions. It seems unfair to jam most of these into the third season and does no justice to the show. Here, I realized Trackers was no longer recognizable and the viewers would not be served well, to say the least. Besides delayed displacements (or search and rescue) pieces, I also realized there are a number of episodes with relevant themes that do not deserve to be ignored.

Trackers: Coming to Your Business

South Florida, do you own and operate a restaurant, a golf course? How about a motel, office building, or furniture store? Or even a warehouse with a small space to spare? Then let us film a scene at your business. This is for our community, so please give this due consideration. Local merchants, we need your locations! Just imagine! A small corner of a room at your business could become the Navigation Room, where tracks to parallel worlds are set. And we will mention your business in the closing credits of the episode. If you are interested in helping, please contact me at trigenre3@gmail.com. (You can also reply on this page.) No elaborate filming equipment will be used and no special lighting is required. Just location....Interior and exterior.

Stories to Tell

What do you expect to see in a science fiction story? What exactly is science fiction anyway? Science fiction (or sci-fi) is a genre used to describe a type of story. As applied to Trackers, the "sci-fi" is not only the backdrop for the series, but also a conduit for the portrayal of the unfolding stories. The team needs the rifts and parallel worlds where these stories occur. Of course, there are no known "rifts" or parallel worlds. Certainly, we do not possess the technology to transport entire crews to locations which are not known to exist! This is the first of the two sci-fi elements of Trackers. The second would be breakthroughs in locating displaced air and sea craft and Daniel's unique methods for helping people find their way back to their respective home worlds. Thus, the tagline for Trackers is "Search and Rescue Beyond the Bermuda Triangle". The second genre, adventure, is present on the parallel worlds. This is the heart of Trackers. Ref
