Idea & Help Wanted: Star Wars Dark Empire: The Movie

Love the idea, and truly wish I could help.  I had thought of something like this in the past.  I'm not sure if you've seen it, but Transformers had a moving comicbook released with the DVD  called Transformers, Beginnings, and i had thought how cool it would be to do that with the Star Wars comics. 

You can see part 1 of that video here:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vDzSgAScN4

Some of it is animated, but most of it is just still photos from the comic moving.  I'm sure it can be done!  I hope you find someone to help you with this project.  Good luck!

 

Thanks for the TF vid. That is a great refference. The cutout and the black holes in the background is a big issue I hadn't thought of. I'm thinking what I'm going to have to do is cut out the main players and Vehicles and then use photo shop to fill in the holes of the background. I'd have the player and objects moving around the background. Here's an example of a short sequence I have in mind......

What I'd do is cut out Luke and the debris in the top panel. Then with all the holes I'd fill the empty space with the same blue background. For the completed shot I have the rummble cam type effect and move Luke and the debris in an upward motion aross the background like he is being sucked up by the Force storm. I think the sequence will be my first test shot.

Does anyone have any experience with making vids. out of photos? I'd like a few pointers or FAQs if you know any. I def. need a list of some software for making such a video.

Also, I 've been listening to the audio drama along with the book and I've noticed a number of large addions in the RD. There are obviously parts of exposition that can be choped and I need to figure out what scenes to drop for time as well. I'm thinking that I may have to bring in elements from other comics to help fill in those extra scenes. I'm even comtemplating using footage from ROTJ for certain scenes with Mon Mothma and Admirmal Ackbar. That is if I can figure out how to edit the scene in a way that doesn't look stupid. I also need to get footage of the Bonus mission on Mon Cal in Rogue Squadron for the World Devestator scenes.

Anyways, sorry for the rambling. I'm def intrigued by this idea as you can tell. Any thoughts, suggestions, and help is appreciated.

 

 is this about Dark Empire (the comic above) or shadows of the empire?

STAR WARS: EP IV 2004 <strong>REVISITED</strong> ADYWAN *<em>1080p HD VERSION NOW IN PRODUCTION</em>
Time

hi everyone

 

I have been dying to see this edit for a while and I have tried a number of ways to get it with no luck.

 

I can't use the torrent b/c I only have dial up and it would destroy my computer

 

Would any one be so kind as to send me a copy.  I would compensate in any way needed (if that is allowen).

I would also be willing to burn copies and send out to others

 

pm me if you think you can help

 

thanks

Info Wanted: what version of the Phantom Menace is this????
Time

Hello

Back when the original fan edit of the Episode 1 made its rounds I went through hell to get a copy of it.

around the same time I also got a copy of an Episode 1 edit that changed Jar Jar’s (and all the gungans) and the Nemodian’s voices.  It added subtitles and edited some other parts of the movie to make it less comical.

I can’t seem to find any info on this version on the net.  Is it this edit still around.

also, I am new here and I am really interested in some of these fan edits.  Could anyone point me in the right direction to get a few of these (don’t really want to do torrents)

thanks
