''Knightquest'' is a fan film that made its debut on the internet in October 2001, created by fans of the ''Star Wars'' franchise. It is a live-action drama set in the ''Star Wars'' universe, taking place a few weeks before the events in ''A New Hope''. It depicts Darth Vader's ongoing quest to seek out and destroy any Jedi who may have escaped the great purge years ago. ''Knightquest'' is notable among fanfilms for having been shot on film, as opposed to the more common digital video. It was also mastered in THX Dolby Surround, and features a special ''Star Wars'' themed THX introduction before the film. The film has been generally well received by fans, and has been consistently mentioned in the press as a turning point in the development of fanfilms. The film has also won several awards, including Best Actress and Best Special Effects in the 2001 Force 3.75 Australian Fanfilm Festival. The film's entire budget of $12,000 went to vendors for camera and equipment rental, film, costume and prop creation, location permits, hotel rooms and food. The entire cast and crew worked for free. Filming began on October 31, 1998 and lasted four days. Pick-ups were done in December of that year and again in March 1999. Visual effects work continued until right before the film was released in October 2001. Tom Sehenuk was responsible for nearly all visual effects, except for lightsaber rotoscoping, which was completed by Clay Kronke. ==External links== * * (''Knightquest'' at TheForce.Net ) * (''Knightquest'' at iFilm ) * (Article in ''The Weekly Standard'' ) * (Review by Adam Bertocci ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Knightquest」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
