hi fanediter,s im bleedspeed. i have recently discovered the world of fanediting when i decided i wanted to do my own kill bill twba. then i found out i was too late it had been done already. however the process intrigued me. and i soon decided i would begin learning how to make a fan edit. i have done a little reading and grabbed a few softwares. then i thought long and hard about what movies i wanted to do and decided on a smelting together a trilogy. i am not sure if this trilogy has been done already but i have not seen it listed.i would like to keep it a surprise if i can so i wont go into what the movies are. but i must say it should work pretty well as the same actors and sfx were maintained throughout the trilogy. so onto the real skinny. i will be using bluray sources i hope. i noticed only one bluray edit so far on the forum and am wondering if i am getting in over my head being a complete novice at video editing. i would love some advice on how to edit my hd sources. or a link to a good tutorial describing cutting and chopping of hd material. the sources are in an mkv package however they are uncompressed. and include dts audio.the project will involve splicing 3 movies together to form a single epic film. i am sure there will be many scene removals maybe some audio cuts and video fades i am not sure of what i will need to do. so much help will be needed to bring my vision to life. mainly i am concerned about what softwares to use that will accept my source files they are mkv but i suppose i could convert them back to m2ts or whatever format will be needed to do my edit. mainly i want to keep my bluray quality,resolution,aspect ratio.so where do i begin? what will be the main software to start cutting and splicing? help is greatly appreciated and i apologize if these are dumb questions as im as noob as it gets. thanks a million.
