Welcome to the Dune Special Edition Project

This is a project I have been slowly working on over the last few years with the goal of ultimately replacing many of the "outdated" special effects shots in David Lynch's 1984 version of Dune.
The project initially began as an endeavor to build a "proper" ornithopter - one with flapping wings, that neither the movie or the mini-series managed to achieve. However, with the advent of the "fan-edit" the scope of the project has expanded with the goal of updating the effects in all those places in the movie where I feel things could be significantly "improved."
Although I am currently working on this by Myself, it's a large undertaking and if there is anyone interested in helping this project along, feel free to contact Me - We might actually be able to get this project completed with a few more skilled and enthusiastic people!

Regards
Sasha Burrow

If you are curious about My professional work, I have been working as a VFX artist (Among other things) at The Asylum for the past 6 years, including visual effects on all 4 Sharknado films (Mainly stuff blowing up!).

Shameless self promotion

In a little bit of shameless self-promotion, here's the link to My new Graphic Design/Art/Illustration blog and slideshow: http://sashaburrow.blogspot.com/

Currently not getting a lot done on the project, as I am focused on finding employment. 5 months in LA without so much as a response is really disheartening. I don't think I'll be able to get much more done until I get work.

That said... the project WILL continue as soon as possible.
