  Need help with Dead Alive (aka Braindead) trailer credits - UPDATE: Trailer released
Posted by: bendermac - 2016-10-23, 11:19 PM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (10)

I'm currently working on a trailer re-edit for the US trailer of Dead Alive.
So far, things look pretty good in the editing department  Big Grin
But I need a bit of help for the credits of the trailer. If someone can jump in
and help re-create them, that would be fantastic. The credits are static, so
no animation is needed.

Here is a picture from them

Thanks for any assistance  Blush

  Excalibur (1981) - Original Mono Mix from US-LD
Posted by: bendermac - 2016-10-15, 10:37 PM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (46)

Now the 5.1 mix on the Blu-ray is actually quite nice. But the original theatrical
mix however is mono. Luckily some LaserDisc got that audio on them. I specifically
looking for a capture of the digital PCM mono mix from this LaserDisc.

If someone has it and can share it, this would be wonderful. If possible please
supply a videocapture too. It will help syncing it too the Blu-ray.

Thanks in advance Smile

  Men In Black 3 - deleted scene
Posted by: spoRv - 2016-10-12, 03:10 AM - Forum: Official and unofficial releases - No Replies

Yesterday I watched The Amazing Spider-Man on BD, and there was a mib 3 trailer; interesingly, it contains a brief scene not included in the movie (a "graffiti'' alien called Flaco).
OK, just maybe ten seconds, but, AFAIK there are no deleted scenes available, it will be nice to have it reinserted in the movie - just a kind of work a fanres user would do... Wink

Thoughts?

  American Werewolf in London (1981) - Original Mono from WS LD
Posted by: bendermac - 2016-10-08, 12:29 PM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (10)

The movie got re-released by Universal in a new "Restored" version.
However that only goes for the video. Unfortnatly Universal didn't see
any reason to include the original mono mix of the movie. So it's our
only change to get it from the LaserDisc. I'd say the best version would be
the widescreen edition -> LD-15101-WS

Anyone has this baby at hand and could provide a bit-perfect capture?
If possible with captured video, to make the sync easier.

For more information about the 2016 restored Blu-ray release, look here.

Thanks in advance Smile

  Platoon (1986) - THX LD PCM
Posted by: bendermac - 2016-10-07, 08:00 PM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (1)

On a German Blu-ray forum they discuss about a possible new release
of the movie here in Germany. Since I'm quite happy with the 25th Anny.
release from MGM in terms of video, I'd love to add the audio from
the THX LD to it.

Anyone can jump in with a bit-perfect capture?

  Movie Studio Logos for Preservation and Project usage
Posted by: bendermac - 2016-10-05, 12:13 PM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (14)

Guys/Girls, what about a new project in which we gather the movie logos in the highest
possible quality, so they can be used on various projects? I bet this would help many
creators saving time to hunt down certain logos for their projects.

- How do we present them?
We give as much information as possible, like year, length, quality, resolution,
a/v codec usage, possibly the source and a screenshot.

- Can logos be shared when they are re-created?
Of course, if the quality matches the original presentation. Project files can be shared,
but they must include all assets, incl. fonts, etc.

What codec need the logo to be shared in?
The goal for re-created logos must be 1080p and in various aspect ratios, with lossless a/v output.
I suggest animation codec. While it's old, it's still perfect to guarantee no issues to work on Mac or Windows.
If you choose to supply ProRes, only use official codecs from Apple.
The FFMPEG created ProRes files in my experience tend to be problematic at times. So better stay away from them.

If sourced from VHS/LD/DVD/Blu-ray/Film Scans they also need to be in lossless a/v.

And here is my first contribution to this thread  :victory:

Warner Bros. Logo (1972-1984)
Source: Blu-ray (I think it was from Argo)
Length: 7 seconds
Codec: Apple ProRes 422 HQ - NO audio
Resolution: 1920x816
Framerate: 23,976fps
Download: MEGA (26MB)

  Joe Versus The Volcano - need help with LD audio sync and original logos
Posted by: applesandrice - 2016-10-04, 11:10 PM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (12)

For years, I've been hoping to get my all-time favorite film, "Joe Versus the Volcano" on Blu-ray. 10 years into the format, however, that doesn't seem very likely to happen. With that in mind, and inspired by the many fantastic projects both here and at OriginalTrilogy, I thought I might try and create my own.

Some years ago, I obtained a 720p copy of the film from an HD broadcast. Hoping to pair this with a lossless (original stereo) soundtrack, I ripped my laserdisc, and then set about trying to sync that with the HD video. Lacking knowledge, experience, and time, however, I eventually gave up. I was also dissatisfied with having only highly-compressed 720p video. Never one to throw anything out, the project has been on my harddrive ever since, calling to me every now and then to give it another shot. Furthermore, after years of searching, last week I discovered a relatively good quality 1080p rip of the film!

That being said, at this moment, my plan is to construct a Blu-ray of "Joe Versus The Volcano", with the original lossless stereo track (as well as the DVD's DD 5.1 track), and an assortment of special features. Once completed, I'd like to share it with the Spleen community, and anyone else who's interested.

As a rank amateur, I would GREATLY appreciate any help that could be provided with the syncing process! If someone experienced would be willing to take over, I'd be thrilled to pieces, but I'd be glad for any help at all. I'm also hoping to obtain the original 1990-era WB logos (opening and closing) for the film. Does anyone here have access to these, or know of an existing Blu-ray source?

Thanks, and best wishes!
