WIRED Article about Star Wars Fanedits

Wired published a very nice article about Star Wars fanedits and even talks a bit about my "grindhoused" version of Episode IV (The War of the Stars).

CLICK HERE to read the article.

CONSECUTION SIX - SHUT UP! has been released!

See the IFDB page for this fanedit

After some delay (but it's nothing new concerning those consecution projects), the sixth Consecution, names Shut Up! is finaly available.


Once again faneditors reunite to bring you several short fanedits following a specific theme.

This time the rules were:

No dialogue, no spoken words (except in very rare cases, but should not be understandable).
No text cards with dialogue.
No text cards telling what happens or what happened.
15 minutes max.

My short fanedit is named "Death Tango" where I use Regarding Henry and Frantic to tell a little story with Harrison Ford as the main character.

Here's the complete list of fanedits presented in this project:

  - Rêverie, by Rogue-Thex
  - I am Will Smith, by Leeroy
  -Carry That Weight, by NJVC
  -The List, by hebrides
  -Death Tango, by TMBTM
  -Schism, by Neglify
  -The Journey of Superman, by g1orkatsos
  -Reunited, by Adabisi

Thanks to all the faneditors for their great work!

COSMOGONY (early teaser)

Hello, I'm in the middle of the making of my new edit, and while it's far from being finished, I wanted to make a very early teaser for it.
Check it out.

Update: the new version of the cover art:

COSMOGONY - In the making

I started a new fanedit (about 30 minutes in for now).
This project comes from a long way and i'm not 100% sure where it goes...
at any case it could end as a short edit if I don't have a lots of ideas during the making.

So, it all started during the process of finding a theme for the next Consecution project.
This project ended being "Shut Up!" Consecution, a series of several "silent" short edits (still to be released).
At one point I had an idea about making several short edits telling the history of men and planet earth.
Each shorts dealing with a different period of time. This is the basis of this fanedit.

It starts with the making of earth then follows the story of humankind using various movies.
Of course you can already guess what kind of movies I'm using for the begining.
It will be The Tree of Life - 2001 a Space odyssey - then it will go on with Quest for Fire,
then various movies like T.Malick's The New World, maybe Apocalypto, 1492,
then various historical movies leading to more recent periods of time.
All with new music and with the less talking possible. At least no talking about the main plot of each movies.
The movies should be used here to show events that would be part of the story of men, not just several little separate stories.

The begining is a given. It's when we move to recent history that it will be more complicated, IMO.
A purpose, a theme needs to be found for the edit to be meaningful and I hope to find it as I go in the making.
Plus I already made a 23 minutes musical edit dealing with underwater creatures, using various movies and docs
(still to be released) that could be seen as a compagnion piece of this edit or as the same kind of work.
I'd like "Cosmogony" to be different and a real project of its own.

Time will tell... (hey, that could also be a good title.)

Good summer vacations...

... for those who have some, that's it. (For me it's already done.)
I also took some months out of fanediting to prevent me from becoming completely mad! I have few little new project I'm working on but nothing advanced enough to be "officialy" annouced.

But my short edit (Death Tango) should be released next month on the sixth Consecution project (more info at Fanedit.org and soon here too).

I leave you with this picture of some girls and dudes watching Jaws: The Sharksploitation Edit on vacation. That made me smile.

The War of the Stars II is Fanedit of the Month!

Thanks to all the voters at fanedit.org, The War of the Stars II: The Future in Motion is fanedit of the month for April!
I am very glad that most people who liked the first one thought this sequel was worthy.
Took me about 6 months to do, with pretty much all my spare times put in it, and although I think a faneditor should make a fanedit for his own pleasure first, this award brings "warm feelings to my heart".

Problem solved

No more stuttering motion on IRON BLOOD.

The Marvel Consecution DVD is now as it should have been in first place.

Sorry for the mess.
