Kristian Nilsen (VFX Supervisor) gives a brief status update

Kristian Nilsen gives a brief status update on the fan production Star Wars Threads of Destiny and shows a clip.

Threads of Destiny is a fan-made feature film based in the Star Wars Universe. After a well developed script was conceived through various drafts by four different writers, filming began in 2005. The director, actors, and the rest of the shooting team all live in Sweden, so the whole film was filmed in Stockholm-- but all in English dialogue.

Right now people all around the world are still working on getting all the CGI done, and the film is expected to be released in 2011. In the meantime, we will post teasers, trailers, pictures, and videos from the production of the film on the web.

I CANT WAIT ANY MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol This Movie looks AMAZING... But its taking so long for this movie and its only 57% done? are we gonna have to wait another 4 years?

[ThreadsOfDestiny]

you won't have to wait another 4 years. past month we have finished 45 shots.

Threads of Destiny is a 2 hour long movie with total 1897 vfx shots. not many people understand that alot of the shots need alot of time. check out the webdocumentary no 2, to see how we work.

I know how hard it is to stay motivated for something that you're not getting paid for. Keep it up guys, this film looks awesome!!!

[color747]

Looks cool. Where did you get the money for the film and did you get oermission from george lucas?

[finnman89]

By the look so far of the movie and all the other stuff it looks like we are going to witness the greatest fan film of all time! "Jävligt bra" as you say in Sweden for f*cking awesome! Can't wait for this! And I am really hoping for it to show in some theatre or something like that, would be awesome!

Hope you guys can finish it before summer. A lot of the job has been done but I see you have a lot more to do.

[frenchiebull]

have we got a date on when it will be done? I use to goto the boards they had but they got slow. I have wanted this film for so long! It is going to be the best star wars film since the first 3. I would kill to get a dvd of this film!!!

[Fishnutts8]

Well im VERY Excited thanks for the reply =]

[ozylot]

Glad things are still moving. I took a bit of a bashing during the build of that cruiser with people saying that ooh the movie will never get done...HA....love the shot! :-) Let's see some more!

[eclipsefx]

Good call Kristian,I hope that will make people understand -

Even though deadlines aren't made & the release gets pushed back, I can get quite mad at people who start complaining & bashing about that or loose hope:

In the past few years I was involved in making ~670 shots up to now, despite social duties, overtime work & now hardcore studies, whereas some persons haven't even lifted a finger for the movie...

(btw, think you may have to change your status to a VFX coordinator, in my opinion ^^)
