Well I ran fansubs of the 2 movies ("The Stars, My Conquest" and
"Overture to a New War"). The former was basically running a script
that had already been timed by someone else with minor tweaks, but the
latter was a real job where I took Sue's raw script and did all the
timing and edits myself (so I am a little proud of it. ^_^)

It should not be necessary to *hire* a subber. Fan subbing should be a
labor of love. If I were still living in Austin with access to our old
equipment we used on the other movies, *I'd* offer to fansub them with
the script.

Well certainly from a $ perspective buying LDs is probably the biggest
expense, assuming you already have the LD player and computer and
whatnot to do the actual subbing.

This can be a problem but, hell, we're fans - we don't have lives! :-)
