That is pretty funny.... I never noticed this before...

Ani - "SHE went into the club Master..."

Obi -  "Then why don't you listen to me?"

Obi - "Do you see him?"

Ani - "I think he is a she..."

This is an idea I got from Trooperman, I think.

Feel free to cop anything you like.  I consider these things open-source projects- I took a lot of other peoples' ideas for my edit and anyone is welcome to do the same. 

This edit is looking great.  Keep up the good work!

-TM

P.S. I really like the idea of putting lounge music in that nightclub.  I used a different piece but I really like this one- it's lower key and and sounds "otherworldly".  It definitely gives it more atmosphere.

Ha, yeah. I actually used your idea to Blade Runner footage! (I believe you said it was ok.) I did it a little differently, and yet again, completely different music that was brought to my attention by Brash Stryker here on the forum. I have a new idea for that scene but not sure yet if it will work.

Dark Lord of the Pith:
Thanks for your feedback!

And regarding your questions, haha
1. The Neimoidian was never meant to sound scottish. I was just doing a random accent, and as I was re-recording the lines, that one happened to sound Scottish. However, since then, I've opted to dub him with an alien language.

2. Regarding pointy sabers, I'll see. They're not pointy-looking nearly as often as people seem to think they are. And I think they're pointy in an effort to make them look flat (like they do in ANH). But maybe some of the REALLY badly pointy shots, I'll fix 'em.  

Thanks Captain Antilles. Its almost impossible to read a line without Mr Adywan and his hard work is mentioned :-). The whole thing gave me the impression that Mr Ady is behind many projects of other people at the same time and many people here are doing edits, expressing their ideas towards to Adywan. I always had in mind that he invented the fanedits and everybody else was creating edits with possible ideas to honor him or inspire him. I guess i need to learn more about this site before assuming the wrong side of things :-D Sorry again to aalenfae for wasting his time writing this in his/her topic. :-)

Captain Antillies, what a good man. Couldn't have said it better myself.

But Titus, you are right about something - Adywan, while he didn't invent fanediting, did indeed invent (or at least realize) a new KIND of fanediting. The huge, comprehensive edit that was Star Wars Revisited is indeed inspiring, and a status that many faneditors hope to attain. 

So don't sell yourself so short, haha. And you don't need to apologize.

(ps, I am a man) 

Im so happy to read that :-) So nice to see talented people gather around and discuss about what they love! I wish i could help you all somehow :-)

Adywan is a great editor but we were editing far before he came:)  If you want to find the true godfather of fan editing, I think he would have to be the "Phantom Editor". 

Good to meet the legends then :-) Thank you Trooperman.

Aiya, well, it seems all my updates have been everything BUT RotS lately, but don't worry!
I've just gotten excited about some AotC stuff in recent days. Here's what I've been working on:

Yeah I noticed that before and simply shook my head at the simple lack of continuity. It's a real shame.

Good choice, aalenfae.  Are you able to adjust mouth movements so it better matches the voice, as it is a bit apparent that that's not what she's saying?  If not, it's not too obvious, especially if you'd never seen AOTC before.

Ah, come to think of it... I think I can change Zam's mouth movements to better match the voice. I'll see what I can do!

Yeah, there are just so many things wrong with Jango rocketing away like that. Both for the story and the character.  

I, too, am leaning toward my first-choice music. 
It's a more appropriate track to use as an atmospheric bed to the scene, much like the Cantina music from ANH. My second-choice music is too... sporadic and disorienting. Something that might fit the mood, but not the environment so well.
The smooth jazz piece also sounds more seedy, I think.

I like your dialogue suggestion. There's actually a lot of dialogue there that I'd rather have as silence. I just wonder if we might still see the mouths moving. I'll look into it.



Ah! I've really just realized that my "RotS" thread has started to become an AotC thread. Maybe I'd best rename the thread to "Aalenfae's Prequels" instead? 


 Here's a clip I've been working on:

Very nice indeed. I like you kept more mysterious the bounty hunter. If you dont mind i would suggest not show his face at all. only close ups to activate buttons here and there. like when the villains of the bond films doing evil things. :-) The lasers again are too many. maybe cut a few shots to make that he shot him more easily/effective? One last thing is at the start its taking too long to see the ships flying around and doing nothing. Maybe you can make the shots more short? Amazing stuff once again aalenfae

I hope this can  give you ideas or even you can take clips. :-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=7nDWUL1z-bk

I always hated how all of that laser fire flies in front of the ship.  As Jango turns, the lasers would still be heading in the direction they were heading to begin with. 

Watching that clip I thought it may be pretty cool if Obi has R4 prepare the spare part canisters before Jango even fires that over the top heat seeking mistle thingy.

Thanks for the high praise, MrInsaneA! 
Though I am still tweaking it! :)

Titus, I like your idea about not showing Jango's face at all during the scene. It might work pretty well, and I'll give it a try. 
And I think your point about the ships just flying around doing nothing is valid. Watching the clip again, it does seem like they just fly around doing nothing for a little too long. I'll see what I can do.

(And yes, I can't wait until I get some good 1080 footage of "1313" cutscenes. But that'll have to wait until the game's out, probably.)
