"Special Edition" Clips with new CGI Visual Effects
The
Evil of the Daleks Scene Reconstructions
Using
my 3D
model, I reconstructed some short scenes from The Evil of the Daleks
and Power of the Daleks. I took two original telesnaps and
combined them in order to create a blank scene, and then rendered my model
into the scene, matching the movement as best I could to the soundtrack.
Power of the Daleks Scene Reconstructions
Above
are the two original screen shots which I used as a basis to recreate the scene
on the right, which is hosted on YouTube where other
people have worked hard on similar clips, notably from Evil of the Daleks.
Power
of the Daleks Scene Reconstructions #2
This
much more complex scene was created using the above two shots as a basis. I also
incorporated lip movements into the
shot and doctored
excerpt from Seeds of Death for some authentic Doctor Who scenery movement
(despite it not being appropraite to the set).
I am currently working on other scenes from Power of the Daleks.
Day
of the Daleks - New CGI Dalek Army and Battle
A
revamped final battle as the Daleks assault the house. This version
has triple the amount of Daleks and some new effects.
Sorry Ogron fans but those hunks had to go because
the location stuff was shot on film so I had to rebuild each shot
from scratch to try to match it up. Sadly it's beyond my abilities
to realistically render Ogrons so you just get lots and lots of
Daleks.
Dalek
Invasion - The Fall of Earth
A
prequel sequence for "The Dalek Invasion of Earth" showing
the Daleks arrival in 2157.
If you're wondering about the date, we assume that desk calendars
stopped being produced in 2164 as civilization crumbled, and the Doctor
arrives three years later.
Craddock says the Earth was bomarded by meteors, then destroyed by
plague ten years before the TV show is set.
Planet
of the Daleks - New Visual Effects Shots
Credit
to Terry Nation, his imagination is very fertile. Okay his plots tended to recycle
jungles and underground cities but hey, what would Doctor Who be without them?
Planet of the Daleks sadly also featured vast alien planes, giant flying beasts
and massive explosions. Except... no-one thought to re-write the script to fit
the budget. So as tribute to Terry Nation, here are the shots that CGI couldn't
provdide in the 1970s.
Spearhead
from Space - New Visual Effects Shots
Spearhead
from Space is superb but it isn't perfect. The opening shot, while acceptable
is clearly meant to portray the Nestines arriving (you can hear them, but you
cant see them) so I wanted to change that. The "red arrows" shot showing
them in formation was always obvious. There was never an object seen hitting the
ground so I added that too. Finally the TARDIS materialising which they failed
to achieve on location is now complete, replacing the dodgy model shot.
The
Krotons - New Visual Effects Shots
The
Krotons is not popular amongst fans but I have affection for it as its the
first story I remember seeing. However, the establishing model shot of the Gond
City (whem village) is laughable so I have (I hope) created a more realistic settlement.
Sadly the setup is inconsistent as the Dynatrope is in the open air at the start
of the story, but when it melts at the end it is clearly inside another building!
I have also added a new shot to tie the Dynatrope to the quarry location.
TARDIS
Falls into Wormhole Trap! - Visual Effects Test
This
shot is sort of vaguely inspired by the shot of the TARDIS by the
nebula at the end of Doomsday (see
it here), although only insofar as it got me thinking if
I wanted to create a similar shot I could just use a Hubble photo,
which in turn made me think that using a deform I could warp the space
that the image is mapped onto, and it evolved into this pointless
but quite fun little shot. May get round to adding some inserts of
Doc looking worried at the console and going into the titles.
