Prime Direction - ”What is Starfleet” with Sharon Lewis

Director Sharon Lewis joins us on the debut of Prime Direction to break down her work on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3, Episode 7 — “What is Starfleet.”

We talk about growing up with Star Trek, flying drones across the Enterprise, and even making M’Benga angry. Sharon shares how she brought a documentary style to Strange New Worlds, and how it shaped the acting, camera work, music, and editing of this one-of-a-kind episode.

It’s a behind-the-scenes conversation packed with insight, laughter, and Trek love—the perfect kickoff for our new Prime Direction series!
