David C. Fein

David C. Fein is an innovative and boldly accomplished Director/Producer and is most notably in 2022 the Producer of the theatrical completion of Robert Wise's Star Trek: The Motion Picture - The Director's Edition.  Offering a powerful new Dolby ATMOS sound mix, new and reassembled visual effects, and a compelling edit, the film received universal acclaim for its epic and modern presentation and relevancy to today's audiences.

As Star Trek is his most recent success, David has a track record for his ability and passion for innovating while pushing limitations out of the way to deliver unique and successful productions. Later working as a journalist, Fein developed an active relationship with the major studios' publicity, marketing, and distribution arms. He assisted with the campaigns for various films, including Fox's Aliens and LucasFilm's Labyrinth.

During this time, he began his quest to create the definitive "making of" film project. After many years of research, he knew that no film had ever been thoroughly examined and documented from beginning to end. Inspired by The Voyager Company's early special edition efforts such as King Kong, his goal became to uncover the story of a film as told through - and in tribute to the filmmakers' work. (Fein eventually would become a consultant on The Voyager Company's "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" supplemental and restoration project.)

After relocating to Los Angeles, James Cameron's Aliens was Fein's first project. The resulting studio-sponsored special edition laserdisc-ALIENS Wide-Screen Collector's Edition would be the first to be labeled "film school in a box" by many educators and industry professionals. Released in the early 1990s, the documentaries of Aliens and Ridley Scott's Alien - produced with partner Michael Matessino - became the benchmarks that defined "special editions," with results that are evident in today's best home entertainment releases. The ALIEN & ALIENS documentary projects have had remarkable longevity and are included in the ALIEN Anthology Blu-ray collection.
