I don't recognize how you;re going to get those things in the movie. But good luck

What things in the movie?
I think he meant the movie as a whole. Yes, it will be quite difficult to pull off. Probably not impossible, but difficult. On another note, you might want to consider a live action movie, with props and all. Especially with scenes that dn't need futuristic devices and stuff. You can always overlay 3D models and effects over the scenes themselves. However, you certainly would have a hard time casting for people like Jim Raynor and Kerrigan. If you can get a cast at all. Look around your community anyways. If you shoot it in Toronto/Mississaga, I bet me and Yoshi could come.
And find a sexy kerrigan.

Oh yea what about a name?
Kerrigan - red hair, green eyes (though contacts would help). Trying to find a person like that with decent acting abilities would be hard. Getting them to be apart of the cast would be even harder. Unless you already know somebody like that.
Name wise, I'd say it depends on which mission/part of campaign that you choose. Prop wise, it should be too hard to make some of the devices needed, and most things like guns would be made of painted wood pieces. Armour and stuff would be something like fiberglass or vacuum molded plastic.
Now, let's see if we can make a Protoss costume....
EDIT: A small sidenote, I finally hit the 900 mark.
Its not that hard really, the only thing that is hard , is since were not hollywood is getting props, and coustumes, thats it really the rest is easy ive been doing this for a while now im good with all the editing, effects , ect, but its always good to get some help making models
This was always going to be live action, never said anything about all 3d just the zerg, ships, and SOME protoss
And what about getting a kerrigan?
Hmm...all the Zerg will have to be in 3D (except for Kerrigan) and the Protoss will probably be in 3D as well since it would be hard to make the costume. Plus, the way their feet are shaped would be nearly impossible to do for a human. Unless you have access to a blue/green screen, which tem you can have the actors wear blue/green pants and overlay it digitally with real feet.
You'd have to make the props with scrap. There isn't really any other choice. And what setting would it be? Would you need a stage to be built?
Settings, i just go around film in the local woods here other woods there, some places i know, ect, props i have a lot , for guns im using airsoft, and yes i know all about blue screen, remember im more then an amuatuer, i know how everything in the movie industry works the protoss zelots , and dark templar i was planning on having an actor play, dark templar are cloaked anyway so all the actor needs is a cape and 2 "Blades" which can even be cardboard since theres an effect being overlaid, and then for the zelots I would have one actor in a coustume, and clone him over and over and over until i have an army of zealots I know zerg are 3d, why do you think i wanted you to help build models?
http://www.staredit.net/?showtopic=1876I need one so I can put my "Starcraft Widescreen Cinimatic DVD Special Limited Edition" into my computer and get "Exclusive director's commentary, Original Developed artwork and never before seen storyboards from Blizzard's cinematics team".
Wouldn't it be useful?
I have that dvd, its cool i also have a daiblo and wc3 one
Well so do I. But I want it's content so we can use it for reference. There is a great ammount in it.
I actually just want the artwork in there.
Hey I can extract high quality videos now...
Id help ya if i could.. the problem is i have no skills at all in any of the areas you need help.. i could maybe help with those images or something..
the project sounds like a great idea anyway!
I'm just wondering, but why not call you movie one of the following:
1)Starcraft: Unloading <==Making fun of Reloaded, sorry
2)Starcraft: Wraith Within... wait, never mind...that sounds like another movie...
3)Starcraft: Dust Camp Hill <==I was thinking on a base attack, like the Starship troopers games...
4)Starcraft: Red River <==Like blood?? Or like how all the planets look in SC??
5)Starcraft: Dead Day <==I don't know...
6)Starcraft: Shade of Night <==Meh...
7)Starcraft: The First Unofficial Movie
8)Starcraft: A Starcraft Movie
9)Starcraft: Terran, Protoss, & Zerg <==Well, I'm running out of ideas
10)Starcraft 001
11)Starcraft: The movie that always begins with Starcraft
12)Starcraft: Left or Right
Since I'm either:
A) Not reading enought to catch something about the story/plot
B) Thinking of the wrong ideas
Good luck! Hope I was some help

AHA! I found it!
Holy **** thats an awsome picture. Where'd you get it from?
My DVD. Since I couldn't get a DVD Decoder I found a DVD to MPEG thingy.
Flaming X the movie is about the Starcraft campaigns and also before and after them. Yet some of those names were funny

.
Your welcome on the funny names! Also, what is the point of making a movie about the campain? I mean, talk about something that needs a new idea! You know what, I know some people (AKA-Me) who can make some pretty interesting scripts! I mean, ask FireKame on my last story I showed her! Besides the fact that I killed everyone but the main character in the second chapter, it was really good!
Here are some more idiotic names:
1) Starcraft: Campain of Idiots <==Nevermind, that one may come out offensive!
2) Starcraft: Deserted <==No meaning whatsoever!
3) Starcraft: Foodwars <==Brood, Food?
4) Starcraft: the Night of the Witch
5) Starcraft: BloodBath
6) Starcraft: the Begining <==Seperate the movie and show something like this? I have no idea?
6) Starcraft: RvBvG <==Well, I do like ®ed and (B)lue and (G)reen, kindof like my favorite online show, Red vs Blue
7) You fold the triangle and make a dimond like shape
8) Starcraft: Field of Fire
Well, I'm running out of ideas, I hope you liked one of these! Still, why can't you just make it into little episodes for people to watch, and then sell shirts of favorite characters (Made up, and with no units, or you get sued!). Then, at the end of the season, sell the episodes on a DVD!
thats what im trying to say! Anywayz since it is my movie i want the storyline to invlove the campgin such as specific names and referances but nothing more, i want a complete new storyline maby before maby after(probably not after, thats just turning into sc2 !) or during the campgin, such as a side story that somehow effects part of the main campagin we never heard about, that could be interesting

maby before maby after
ALL THREE!
Before: Get it from your Starcraft manual.
During Campaigns: Play them.

After: Find the secret campaign, send several emails to Blizzard, talk to Entropy

, and make some stuff up.

Well, I know how you can start, just put the terrain in a base camp and show the main characters. Also, you have the ability to kill characters if needed! Last, you can always use the heros in the movie, I mean, what's against you using them? Just do so!
