   Stunt Performer Anita Nittoly

   This week we’re joined by Anita Nittoly, a stunt performer, fight choreographer, and rigger whose work has helped bring the action of modern Trek! Anita takes us behind the scenes of creating the fights, falls, stunts, and physical performances that make Trek’s biggest action moments believable. We talk about what goes into choreographing a fight for the screen, the difference between performing a stunt and making sure another performer can do it safely, and what it takes to build a career in the stunt world. Plus, we get into Anita’s journey from dance and stage combat to working on some of the biggest shows in the Star Trek universe. It’s a conversation about creativity, collaboration, safety, and the people who literally put their bodies on the line to make Trek exciting! https://anitanittoly.com (https://anitanittoly.com/) 🚀 Join the HFO Community! 🤩 Patreon (There’s a Free Option too): https://www.patreon.com/hailingfrequenciesopen (https://www.patreon.com/hailingfrequenciesopen) 💬 Be part of the conversation on Discord: https://discord.com/invite/BqWVXXXdW6 (https://discord.com/invite/BqWVXXXdW6) ☕ Buy us a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/hailingfreqopen (https://ko-fi.com/hailingfreqopen) 📱 Follow HFO: https://linktr.ee/hailingfreqopen (https://linktr.ee/hailingfreqopen) 🔮 Trek Deck Tarot by: https://deosildesigns.com/ (https://deosildesigns.com/) ⭐ If you enjoyed this episode, please Like, Subscribe, and leave a comment—it helps more Trek fans discover the show! 🖖 Live Long and Prosper.

   Cosplayer Jessica Crouse!

   This week on Hailing Frequencies Open, we’re joined by lesbian cosplayer, actress, model, playwright, and all-around nerd Jessica Crouse! Jessica talks with us about her journey into cosplay, bringing iconic characters like Xena Warrior Princess, Seven of Nine, Jadzia Dax, Black Widow, and Bellatrix Lestrange to life, and what it means to create characters that resonate with the LGBTQ+ community. We also dive into convention culture, queer representation in fandom, the art and craft behind cosplay, and why sometimes the most important part of being a queer nerd is simply finding your people. And of course, because this is HFO, expect plenty of ridiculousness, some spicy opinions, and a whole lot of queer nerd energy! www.instagram.com/jessicacrouse/ 🚀 Join the HFO Community! 🤩 Patreon (There’s a Free Option too): https://www.patreon.com/hailingfrequenciesopen (https://www.patreon.com/hailingfrequenciesopen) 💬 Be part of the conversation on Discord: https://discord.com/invite/BqWVXXXdW6 (https://discord.com/invite/BqWVXXXdW6) ☕ Buy us a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/hailingfreqopen (https://ko-fi.com/hailingfreqopen) 📱 Follow HFO: https://linktr.ee/hailingfreqopen (https://linktr.ee/hailingfreqopen) 🔮 Trek Deck Tarot by: https://deosildesigns.com/ (https://deosildesigns.com/) ⭐ If you enjoyed this episode, please Like, Subscribe, and leave a comment—it helps more Trek fans discover the show! 🖖 Live Long and Prosper.
