Fanedit Title: Friday the 13th Part X: Jason Goes to Space
Faneditor Name: youngy94
Tagline: "Evil Gets An Upgrade."
Original Movie Title: Jason X
Genre: Horror
Franchise: Friday the 13th
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Original Release Date: 2001
Original Running Time: 91
Fanedit Running Time: 65
Time Cut: 26

Brief Synopsis:
Jason Voorhees returns with a new look, a new machete, and his same murderous attitude as he is awakened on a spaceship in the 25th century, once awake Jason begins killing the students and crew of the ship.

Intention:
I'm a huge fan of the Friday the 13th series, unfortunately this movie was a mess and didn't live up to the previous movies, so I felt it needed an edit to give the series the proper send off it deserved. To remove all the bad dialogue and all the attempt at humour that fell short and didn't help the movie in anyway.

Can you post a video clip? E.g. one that show a transition where you made a cut? To give an idea of how you're changing the dialog / flow and to show how smooth the transition is.

Good luck on making this as scary as it can be.

Here is a small cut that I did after Brodski and Lowe small talk. I cut about a minute of small talk between several people as this makes the movie flow a little better as the small talk between these people isn't really needed

Here is a cut after Brodski and Lowe small talk when the students get back to the ship. I've cut about a minute which was just small talk between different people that didn't really need to there and cutting this helps keep the movie flowing

I see what you're going for. The cut looks to be in a good place, and the sound is good.

You can improve the transition by cutting the video a little earlier: after Lowe starts to turn right, but before Brodski starts to turn right. Brodski looks left when Lowe starts to walk to the right. Cut there and the next shot will connect better, because now it won't look like Brodski is following right behind Lowe. You may need to continue a word or two from the first scene over the start of the next.

Good luck!

Here's another part of the movie I have edited. I cut Rowan shooting Jason multiple times, so now she only shoots him once then he falls into the chamber

Here I have cut out the talking scenes around Condor fighting Jason and his death, as I feel like cutting these out helps it flow better as cutting away from this takes away the from the action and doesn't help the scene

Here is another edit I have made to the scene where everyone is in the room and Jason bangs on the door. I cut out Janessa saying to Rowan " why don't you just stick your head out and have a peek" which is just silly to say as we know no one would ever do that with Jason outside the door especially Rowan who is an expert on Jason and knows what he is capable of

I have finally finished cutting all parts of the movie that I wanted to and I am now going to rescore some scenes and add a few things in

I would fully agree with lapis on  this.  Also, make sure you take time the blend the audio transition - as it stands you can tell there's an unnatural cut there as there is a kind of "blip" sound as it goes to the next scene.

Yep, scene is a good idea, but again the sound transition just needs a little fine tuning.  Not much - maybe just a case of simply cross-fading, to make it flow naturally

Yep, this one seems to be almost good to go ;)

And this one seems on the money.  Like your approach with this one... I advise just taking time on the audio transitions ;)  Good luck!

I have finished adding in audio transitions to each cut that I made so that each transition now sounds better and flows more naturally. I want to say thank you to LastSurvivor for saying about audio transitions as I didn't know about them as I'm still new to editing movies so adding them in has made my transitions sound much better.

I'm am now going back to see what scenes I can add back in as I have cut to much and the movie now doesn't go for long enough, because just adding in what I'm going to the time still wouldn't be enough. So adding a few scenes back in and adding what I'm going to will make the movie go for a resonable time.

I have now finished adding back in a few scenes and adding some things and went over all the audio transitions to make sure they sound good, now I'm going to rescore some scenes that I think could do with a rescoring.

Here is a rescore I've done when Tsunaron uses Crystal Lake as a diversion for Jason, I have added in Friday the 13th theme and I'm interested in feedback

I'm back after having a break and will be working on this along with my other edit spending 2-3 days a week on each.

Here is a rescore I did yesterday, I used the Jason VII theme and I think it suits the opening. I'm interested in feedback on what other people think and whether this suits or I should just stick with the original.

Here is another rescore I have done when the soldiers try to kill Jason, I rescored with some music which I feel sounds pretty good and I'm interested in feedback on if it suits the scene

I have made good progress on this edit and I have done all the cuts I wanted to and have rescored a few scenes, I still need to add in a few more rescores and fix anything that needs it but I'm happy with how it currently is  :)

If anyone would like to watch my edit so I can get some feedback on what people think and any changes that need to be made and things that should to be added to improve my edit, PM me for the link  :)

In my opinion you can use parts of the score but not all of it. This is more a score for a chasing scene and here Jason is figuring where he is at, he is a bit confuse. But some moments it works well, like the part when Jason tilts his head.

Good idea, just blend it with the SFX and it can work with some cuts here and there.

Maybe you can use parts of the theme of part VII in that cabin scene  (check at 1:12)

Good luck with your edit! I´m curious to see! :D
