Fanedit Name: Apollo 13: The Super 8 Cut
Brief Synopsis: Apollo 13: it's one of my very favorite films ever, it's simply fantastic! So why edit the movie? Because i really wanted to see a super 8 cut of it and thought that if super 8 digests were still being made than an Apollo 13 digest would likely exist, and I think it would have looked something like this single reel edit.
Faneditor Name: Rogue-theX
Tagline: Lift off! Houston, we have a fan edit. I repeat, we have a fan edit!
Original Film Name: Apollo 13

Amount of time cut.: 122 minutes
Intention: To edit the film down to one good single reel super 8 digest.
CUT LIST:
1. Created simple opening and end credit sequences.
2. Old film look/sound added.
3. Removed many plot points and charachters in order to reach the desired run time.
4. Used music from the end credits to re-score some parts of the movie, and replaced sound effects during such parts.
5. Carefully re-framed the image from the 2.35:1 AR to 16x9.
6. Experimented with a new camera/projector/print wobble effect by using a De-shaking tool in an unconventional way, only during scenes that could benefit from such an effect.
7. 3:09; added zoom in effect to shot of marilyn lovell in order to add extra focus to her emotions, it wasn`t necessary but with the shorter run time i though it might help since we see very little of her at the start of this version. I also added a zoom out effect to the shot directly after (the rocket going through the clouds) to complement the previous effect.
8. 4:30; added comm transmission filter to the flight control guy`s dialog.
9. 9:53; added shots from the night before launch scene to illustrate that Marilyn was in Jim`s thoughts.
