Serling narrations featured him on the set of that. But. before I could worry about that, I had to identify which ones to use and then. I had to work. I went to my of. The Twilight Zone. Companion, by Marc Scott Zicree Silman James Press 2nd edition is. Amazon. com, which contains synopses of every episode and. Without this book as a. It. was an invaluable resource. I skimmed through episode after episode and soon. The episode was. The one for. I would. I hoped Serling wore the same suit in both on Dragnet, Friday and. Gannon always wore the same clothes to make continuity easier. Unfortunately, I only had one episode of The Twilight Zone on. I bought it on video years ago in a discount bin. The Sci Fi Channel shows them every night. I printed up an episode list and started taping, looking for my. Then I found that they have a searchable schedule on their website. I was excited to watch it, but surprised to find that. No on camera Serling, which was. Sci Fi Channel is big for putting their logo in the. There was a little bit of a spaceship sound effect over the first. No music or sound effects in the background. It. would work just fine. Getting the closing narration took a lot more patience. The. Sci. Fi Channel had a marathon or two, but didnt show my needed episodes. Skokie Movie Watch Online. Eventually, I finally got that one, too. Well, that. solved the challenges of blending in the on camera Serling. That was no. problem, since the ending of POTA doesnt have any music just the sound of. So, my biggest challenge turned out to be no challenge at all. The show is broken down into the three acts. The. opening and closing of the show both run about 3. Now, how to condense. The obvious path was to follow. I skimmed through the movie and did a mental. Act I looked pretty clear, Act II a little more muddy too much good. Act III started out muddy but had the perfect. It gave me chills just thinking about it. My first rough edit was transferring the videotape footage to my. DV camera. In Act I, I already knew I was cutting out the whole journey.

Plus, with the. enough for the correct run time. Problem solved. I sure hated to lose the. Since I also cut the. Taylor is shot in the throat, going straight to the trial works. As I said, its pure Serling. Act III clearly had to start with the prison break. With that. established, it was easy to just go straight to the scenes on the beach and. Taylor shaving his beard. Obviously, I had to cut out the whole cave sequence. After Taylor shaves his beard, Zaius and. Gorillas show up. Cutting around them was tricky and not as successful as I. While Taylor is saying his good byes to Cornelius, Zira, and. Lucius, his horse mysteriously appears and there are Gorillas on the rocks. Still, the dialogue in these shots was necessary, and the horses. After cutting in the shocking conclusion. Close enough. The. Twilight Zone music to the Jerry. Goldsmith score.
