VT featurettes[]
Fan film[]
Fan filmmakers Tony Coburn and Tom Rees-Kaye talk about how they are making their fan film "The Fatal Fear" in their garden in Buckinghamshire.[3] They show what they use for costumes and where they get them from; camera trickery such as chroma key and split screen effects; and how they edit it using software on their computer. This is compared and contrasted using behind-the-scenes clips from The Christmas Invasion, with Liz explaining how some of the techniques are similar but the timescales are very different e.g. 2 days vs. 1 month to film, 2 vs. up to 200 actors etc. They then film the final scene of their film with Tom's stepdad Alan as a "Time God", and show a clip of their finished production.
