I originally posted this thread a couple of weeks ago under my real name. I am posting now under my new fanedit name.
For a long time, I have wanted to create a set of extended editions to the HP films since it does not look like they will ever be released. With the last HP marathon on FreeForm, I recorded all of the films so I would have reference material for the edits that I was going to do. I have started on this project and am in the final stages at this point. I am not ready to release final versions, but I wanted to see what interest there was in a set like this. My intent is to create a set closely mimicking the FreeForm extended editions, but not matching them.
Below are the edits that I have made to each film thus far. While these are my first fan edits for a film, I have had video editing experience in the past. I am using Final Cut Pro X as my editor and Adobe Audition for sound editing. The final versions of the films will likely just have stereo audio, mainly due to me only have stereo for my playback and some of the deleted scenes being produced only in stereo instead of 5.1. Material for the edits are Blu-Ray rips of the films including the deleted scenes as well as the soundtrack audio files.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban Extended Edition:
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Extended Edition:
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Extended Edition:
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Pt 1 Extended Edition:
If there is interest, I will release these to the public.
