Power Rangers Lost Episodes Series

This project started off as a simple re-creation of an episode of Power Rangers with my own cast, story direction, and special effects.

However, after gaining viral popularity in local film competitions and social sites such as Youtube and Facebook, this project developed into a series trilogy with its own fanbase.

For every episode, I went through the following methodology:

• List possible cast members
• Write script and storyboard
• Audition selected members
• Film
• Record voiceovers
• Import/edit all sequences and piece into a main sequence
• Background noise reduction
• Special effects for selected scenes
• Voiceovers, sound effects, music
• Titling
• Release rough draft to cast members and video community
• Revise project according to relevant feedback
• Finalize and release episode
