after seeing the topic for
AVPR redux i got an idea, what if i edited all predator movies into max 45min episodes for an anthology series?
The first was the original predator, i included some deleted footage and it runs at about 41 mins with credits included
this is early work, audio in particular needs lots of tweaking
Major change list:
- removed the guerrila subplot
- remove elpidia carrilo and shane black completely
- poncho dies off camera
- added butterfly deleted scene
- added a color corrected (for night time) cloaking scene from unused footage of cloaking tests
- added the predator teasing with dutch deleted scene
- added deleted footage of the dutch preparation for the final battle
Here are a few "new" scenes
Arrival - The predator arrives and we get the title, helicopter scenes are cut together and the marines go straight to the jungle

https://mega.nz/file/FDoAQQSR#59yxY3go74J5-4p7PdwhT_Aoi-fhgtkJJFQNJcndN0MTrophy - After the "Contact" scene the episode cuts to the night scene, the predator retrieves Blain's body
https://mega.nz/file/4axAyYLT#IeawLmwsZawusGq1ZnDA9CWwk091eMi5EBuAa5BQq64Billy - Billy's death is a single scene now, my first experiment with rotoscoping to remove dutch and company from the log scene
https://mega.nz/file/VXxiyIQC#D6niLTYIJ-faQ9q7Mqd_P226vLEfHdp6j6BwXDSZkfoHunter - Very raw early draft, includes a lot of deleted footage, dutch's encounter with the predator right until after the Mud scene
https://mega.nz/file/xewkHQoK#IwLR8e0N5n4w5gH5NlgDJhchRabOIdpstXvGpD-Hj2MHere you have the current
raw cut of the full episode, remember, it's
unfinished!https://mega.nz/file/pOhCQYKY#2MkmdAVVyatqF_NV84GiKdAJUjO6WdLEjSQVO78ACeYI have minimal experience with photoshop and never even edited video before, so i'm looking at this more as a toy project for learning than anything
If anyone wants to help it would be awesome to have a generic intro for all episodes
