Welcome to The Dark Resurgence Remaster production diary.
This project aims to achieve several goals that I lacked the means or expertise to accomplish the first time around. These include:
• Commissioning an original score for the film
• Recreating an original end credits style
• Recreating the animated intro
• Performing a second pass over the visual effects and redoing them as necessary
• Recoloring the film for a more classic aesthetic
• Remixing the film’s soundtrack
• Creating a remastered trailer
I’ve been working on this side project off and on for about three years.
The good news is that the first two pieces of the puzzle are already complete: the end credits and the score. This diary will focus on my solo journey to reproduce the remaining five elements: coloring, visual effects, intro, soundtrack, and trailer.
I’ll share my progress through each of these stages, including what I didn’t like about the original, how I approached fixing it, what I learned along the way, and how it could help you in your own production.
As you read along, feel free to post questions in the comments.
