Okay, newbie question here… but what is FanFiltration? Obviously they re-edit moves, but is it just one guy doing it? A bunch of people? Do they do a good job? How do you see some of their work?

First off, I am not very excited with the deleted scenes. The only parts I can see including in the FanFiltration 2.0 Edit are the ones from the end of the movie, the Shadout Shouts bit, and some of the death of Jamis. FF

I agree. The issue I have is the obviously lower quality of these scenes, both image-wise and sound-wise. Perhaps some music might help, but the image will be noticably lower in quality than the "normal" scenes.

Agreed. Some of the acting is awful -- my guess is they were planing on fixing this in looping.

I'm doing one. I utterly loathe the editing done to the extended version, however. Those voice overs are painful, and the use of music is dreadful -- it's like they had no clue about how to effectively use it. The pervasive use of music creates another problem -- the theatrical release has many scenes with no music or different music, and then you insert a "new" scene and suddenly the music changes!

What software did you use to achieve this? After Effects? I would think keyframing this would be a real pain. Could you post a still of your work?

Newbie question here... what is FanFiltration? How do I see some of their work? I've been re-editing movies for years and would love to see someone else's work.

What version of Blade Runner was that?

The version that was recently posted to myspleen. It's a two DVD set with the first disc being a dual layer DVD that was made from an HD broadcast of Blade Runner. I haven't compared the quality with my retail DVD, but from what everyone else is saying, it puts it to shame.

Is there anything different about it content-wise, compared to the "standard" version and the director's ut?

They're cut out in my version.

Is there any way to extract the music from a scene so you are left watching only the dialog/nat sound? I'm 99% sure there isn't, but I thought I'd see if there is some miracle software that can do this (on a Mac preferably).

thank you....

I'm begging you... please email me about this. I am a professional video editor (like yourself, I am guessing???) and have re-edited TTT and am starting ROTK, both to coincide with the books as closely as possible. I would love to swap ideas, DVDs, etc. PLEASE! excaliburvideo@adelphia.net
