“Star Trek Into Darkness” Viral Campaign Wants Your Original Artwork! Caleb Hamilton, May 9, 2013May 9, 2013 Briefly: We’ve been following the lackluster Star Trek Into Darkness Are You The 1701 campaign quite closely since it went live last week. The first “mission” was to submit pictures to Instagram and videos to Vine that were inspired by Star Trek or “the future.” 1701 fans were rewarded with a special advance screening of the domestic trailer rendered in anaglyph 3D.
