Stargate is an MGM Trademark |
Back in 2007 they made a Stargate Movie
(short)
Sadly
MGM swiftly banned the movie from youtube, then oddly announced 2 days
later that fans should make a movie. We didn't bother re-editing it to
re-upload to YT.
Bob just stuck the movie on Megavideo
(which is sadly now closed down) So there is no way to watch this movie OR its Sequel that they made.
This blog post in essence is just a footnote in history about the 2 episodes they made
(Inspired by Super Team Productions in london) who had a fan made 6 part series called "Call It A Stargate" which also sadly fell foul to MGM Legal.

On
the opening credits cut out a jaffa and made for individual PSD files
each with an extra layer of "glow" and they were used like a training
simulation where they appear with a yellow gown (sort of beam into the
scenario) and when you shot them they would glow red and essentially
beam away. Used particle illusion to give their Airsoft toys an Entar
effect when fired.

The PSD's Run As A Gif Anim |
This gave that kinda (oo i wonder what episode that scene is from)
during the credits. They shot it like a training simulation and used
the footage of hammond and jack running scenarios at the S.G.C, While
then cutting back to them in an old warehouse in Magul by the river Alt.
(Images of that location here).

The first episode its self was based on them being dropped off
(by a puddle jumper)
at a stargate on the edge of the milkyway, the plan.. to come back into
the milkyway from the outer edge, taking out the goa'uld as they make
their way back in to our galaxy. Only to be confronted by a kull and a
load of jaffa. This thing was essentially just 1 afternoon in the woods
with 2 fake hand guns and 2 fake machine guns. Funny day because mark
had no idea wtf they were going to film, bob just pulled out to Atlantis
stickers and mark says.. NO WAY!!.. and bob pulls out the guns and
says.. yes way.. then then just shot stuff of kickin ass. Then edited it
together with original SG footage, though they did add a load more
effects when the jaffa where being wasted lol.
Sadly
the SG-UK1 was only shot with a 320x240 camera, even then the SG-UK 2
was only shot with a 640x480 (so both movies had a pretty rough look to
them, no1 even more so)

The Video Was Pretty Much Banned Within 8 Minuets Of Uploading |
|
Both Got Wiped Out |
Really sad to considering the job i had trying to line up muzzle flashes on 320x240 footage

The first SG-UK had a pretty amazing opening theme
tune mixed from a number of movies and a ps2 game, all arranged
into an intro theme tune. The full specs where listed on the unreleased
Soundtrack Box Art
(that was made just for them) and not released to the public.
(nor will it be)

The DVD Box was based on the template of
the Die Hard 1 dvd, and was chopped around in photoshop till the back of
the box suited the needs. Again this was just fan made and is not for
retail or use besides educational usage, as bob tried to complete all
aspects
(write, film, edit, arrange and design) only stage not completed was licensing and marketing.

Bob created a PDF book for SG-UK 1
featuring screen shots, behind the scenes shots and images of it in the
editor, it was around 18mb
(download SG-UK 1 PDF here) Mark created a PDF for SG-UK 2 i
(you can get that here).

Sadly i can't upload any of the actual footage/music due to copyright reasons.
They also made 3
Highlander fan movies.
Please note to MGM Legal, we are not offering the movie, episodes OR
music here and this page is merely for documentation of an educational
project we worked on using stargate as its basis.
