Fanedits (TMNT and Others)
 

I used to do a lot of fanediting back in the day, and I even attempted a cut of a Fast Forward episode back in 2006. Lately I've gotten back in the habit and chief amongst my projects are a few TMNT edits.

Change List

Heh, sounds cool! Did you ever get the chance to watch my "TMNT Gone Wrong!" abridged parody series of videos before I decided to take them off the interwebs?

That sounds like a neat idea!! Looking forward to it!!

D'Oh, no I didnt...why'd you take them down? Copyright banhammers or something?

Hmmm... this sounds interesting. I am curious about the logistics of how everything will be cohesive, but I guess I would have to wait for the finished product. :D

I think you'll really like where I place the "Shredderville" potions...with a little fine-tuning it can slot pretty easily into the opening act of
"The Big Blow-Out"...though granted the only dodgy part of that is trying to justify the Turtles dozing off while Shredder causes havoc uptop:lol:

I never could upload them on Youtube for copyright reasons (from Lionsgate), so I used dailymotion, since they had looser requirements at the time. I had a thread for them here, but none of them ever got that many views.

Right after the US government went over to New Zealand and shut down MegaUpload, I got a little jumpy about the future of copyright law enforcement in this country and decided I just didn't feel like taking chances anymore.

But if anybody is interested in seeing them, I can always oblige a private request! I released 11 episodes, with a special 12th episode that was never revealed. Like I said, they weren't as popular as I hoped they'd be, but I had fun making them.

I even did two parodies of The Big Blow Out episode!

Maybe, but I think the real reason nobody watched it was because it was on Dailymotion. :lol:

The primary traffic I got was through the Forum thread.

If you want to PM a preferred email address, I could probably send you a temporary download link[

Hey, cool!

Sure thing, looking forward to seeing them.

Update: Well, I've tried my ideas out on a prototype workprint comprised of copies I ripped from Youtube, and so far they pan out very well. I've removed the commercial cuts as well so the whole thing feels like a more complete experiance. Due to video quality issues (particulary with the "Shredderville" portions), I will have to do this all over again with high quality DVD rips of the episodes, but I now have a blueprint to work off of so the job will be much easier down the road.

For some reason, I find that really hilarious!!:lol: And that trailer looks great so far!

I'd love to see them sometime!!

Thanks

I've put together a custom title card for the edit too...just to make it that extra bit authentic looking:)

I want to upload the blueprint workprint to Mega to get general feedback, but I have such a slow and piddling server over here and I always have trouble putting anything up on it. I'd try torrents, but I'm hopless at properly seeding anything.

Right, big problem....apparently the reason why my blueprint file is so big is because of the custom title card I added to the video that balooned it in size...it works fine on DVD, but it's torture trying to upload on Mega with that kind of file size...even when you stick it in a RAR file.

At the moment, I've decided not to bother uploading the workprints and instead will carry on testing out my ideas for some things...I'm going to start work on my next edit project today, which will be a hybrid edit of the seasons five and six premieres plus the season seven finale. I'll let you know how I get on.

Just letting you guys know work begins on the new edit soon, it might be tomorow, I've just been very busy putting together other fanedits unrelated to Turtles.

I'll also be putting up a "timeline" detailing all the changes I've made to these episodes just to wet people's appetites and to give you a general idea of what to expect from the finished product.

Changed my mind and "Return of the Tecnodrome" is now back in.

I'll get around to the timelines soon

Hmm.... wait a minute, so did you edit it where Baxter becomes that green substance in the jar that Donatello has?
:lol:... lol sorry I'm just trying to piece things together.


On another note, I don't know how you're able to do it Zarius, but you are managing your Movie Script, OT novellas, and your TMNT fanedits all quite well. Pretty impressive! ;) I don't know if I could juggle all of these projects at the same time as well as you, if I tried working on them. :D

Tee hee...that'd be something, Donatello giving Master Splinter "soylent stockman":lol:

No, instead of mutating him with the fly, Krang just kills Baxter.:)

Helps when you have a goverment-appointed allowence and all the time in the world

Wow. Awesome cover, Zar. Good job.

We finally turn the topic back to TMNT in this thread

Here's my stab at an alternative opening to TMNT II

Cutlist/Changes

Awesome fan edits, Zar. You're awesome at this stuff.

Thanks Bubbly, I've really come a long way since starting out on these, I just keep improving.

Yep, and that's a good thing.

Here's my take on an alternative ending to "Ooze"

Ooh, that's awesome, Zar. Nice work.

Pretty cool, Zar. Good job.

Awesome edit, Zar. Loved it.

Thanks Bubbly, glad you enjoyed it. I just finished a fifteen-minute trim of Superman Returns today as well

Remember after I completed my TMNT movie script I was going to write a Captain Planet one? Well, I decided to go one better and do a fanedit of several episodes instead. Captain Planet: Scorched Earth

What's this about? It's a fanedit of four Captain Planet episodes centering on the Planeteer's struggles against Zarn, the former spirit of the Earth and rival to Gaia. The edit chronicles three encounters the Planeteers have with Zarn, begining with his initial apperance in "The Conqueror" and culminating in what I have always considered the season two finale, "Summit to Save Earth"

Here's a look at how the edit opens

Oh man, I used to LOVE Captain Planet. Great work, Zar. Loved it.

Reuploaded the X-Men edit, it's significantly different from the last version and IMO, much improved

Fred Wolf episodes with 50% the footage removed? And it works?

I reckon so too, do you have any in mind that could be done in about five minutes?

I think the Mutagen Man episode could be done in five minutes, most of it consists of MM running around and the Turtles just standing at gun point, if I'm not mistaken there's also a subplot about Vernon injuring the heir to the company that can be trimmed down.

I'll give that a go next then

Its crazy when you cut how the fat of these shows and leave the best parts how much better it can be.

I've recreated my very first fanedit, a feature length version of "The Big Blow-Out" with "Shredderville" bolted on as the opening act, bonus easter egg include trailers for other cartoons using brand new footage created with Sora2 (no watermarks) and an alternative ending that destroys the Technodrome (using Sora2 also)
