Hey everyone. So I've seen a few of these videos and I really like them. I've decided to post them here periodically to share with the class, so to speak. These first couple aren't available on Youtube, so I'm not sure how many people have seen them:
I think a lot of faneditors tend to be very observant about the little touches that directors put into their films. Even still, you might miss connections and themes if they're more subtle or story-related rather than visual, or if you haven't seen enough of a director's filmography. Yorgos Lanthimos was like that for me. This video series will point some of these things out, which (for me) gives a bit more enjoyment when you're watching their other films and then notice these things for yourself.
There's also potential here to relate directly to fanediting. There are a few edits (Pulp Empire comes to mind) which take a popular work and reinterpret it more in the style of another director or film. I think that's supercool and fun, so if anyone sees a style in these vids and gets inspired to reinterpret, say, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, in the style of, oh I dunno, Guy Ritchie, then the entire thread will have been worth it.
Enjoy!
