Anyone interested in this project?

Aliens open matte test clip #1: https://we.tl/WqiNF5IuW6 (906MB, link expiration date 2017-06-23)

Known problems:
first part of the shots inside the rescue ship has top slice darker
horizontal pan over the Earth is stuttering - my fault 😉

Please download and review; apart the previous noted one, the other slices seems consistent with the rest of the picture, in colors, brightness, grain - I’ve used the new Alien custom made grain plate from the very same film.

Waiting for your opinions!

When (if?) it would be ready, you could always make an open matte trailer!

Forgot to mention, it would benefit also of the Soft+Open Matte™ technique!

Any updates?
Glad I own the ALIEN Anthology Blu-ray disc set. (UK release cause it was cheaper at the time and in an Amaray multi-disc case.)
Already grabbed the four FC releases.

Too hot here to have the brain working right… seems to be on Tatooine… 😄

Let’s wait for a lower, human-compatible temperature!
