Prometheus

Prometheus is a project that I've been working with for a while. It's only now that I have access to the new Window Movie Maker in Vista that I can more easily put the ideas and images together into a coherent form.

Ideally, I'll find the time and direction to create small, video serials that will help explain the story of along. I find and splice segments of video from various movies together and tie in some music to help convey the basic idea of the plot; very similar to a story board.

In this first chapter, I am using footage from the movies: Serenity and Pitch Black. I already have started work on Chapter 1.1 but even three minutes takes a while to compile.

I'm not sure where the story is going but it should be an interesting trip.

Chapter 1.0

The colonists and crew aboard the Prometheus sleep away the 14 month voyage to their new home on Syan; a remote and newly established colony world. A collision with a micro-meteor storm sends the ship off course and they crash land on an unknown planet.
