Hi there. FWIW, I’d say the thing to be cautious of here and at FanEdit.org is any perception that you’ll be doing anything commercial related to fan editing. It’s kind of a prime directive sort of thing: it’s there to protect us and make this whole thing safe and able to go on.
If you ever pursue FX to remove Klaud let me know, since removing him may be an incidental support to being able to move the chess scene to the very end of the movie. (Making the scene at the start in need of starting after Klaud’s proper introduction, so removing him from the remaining shots would be cleaner. But I don’t really want to remove him were it not for this other change.)
It’s an honour to speak to you. I’ve heard a lot about your work and seen various things you’ve done.
I have no intention of going commercial or making any profit from my work. I had an idea of trying to raise cash to shoot some extra scenes in the future I.e. Rey building her Saber and reshooting Kylo Ren for TFA scenes or commisioning work I cant do myself if I couldnt fine anyone but those are only ideas for now.
I wasn’t going to eliminate Klaud completely, I just cut his opening scene as I thought his “mechanic” job was a little silly. Got a lot of hate for it.
I’ve very keen to see what your take on the movie will be. Saw you’re struggling with free time aswell.
Best of luck.
