I really enjoyed reading Tales from Jabbas Palace, my personal fabourite is Tales of the Bounty Hunters, some lovely insights into the Bounty HUnters in that book.

Well I finally got round to watching A New Hope Revisited last night and all I can say is wow! the changes that Adywan has made have truly made me Star Wars in a different light, it was also nice to see that the blue hatch from the escape pod removed, that has bugged the hell out of me for years! The colour in the entire film is spot on perfect.

Can anyone tell why Adywan has not yet been picked up by ILM?

I've been thinking when Luke is taken via a platform to see Vader the trip is longer and more drawn out than shown, it's just shortened for us.

 

What confuses me about that though is that Luke would have had to go along the arm of the vane to get a platform to take him to the carbon chamber if it is indeed in the wind vane structure and we only see him in the Cloud City interior and only see the vane exterior after Luke goes out the window.

Maybe I am looking too deep into this but it just confuses the hell out of me that that is where the carbon chamber is given where we see Luke going through the interior door and then popping up in the chamber apparently in the vane.

 

 Your right, it does'nt make sense for the chamber to be situated on the vane, you can't say that all the characters flew there becuase the shaft is probably too small for any craft to get to the vane, even for a Cloud Car, There does'nt seem to be any access to the Vane from the shaft either.

The Vane see's no purpose really apart from the final part of the duel.

I've browsed these boards, and have enjoyed watching the trailer to A New Hope Revisited, but where do I obtain such a movie? most of the normal sites I visit to obtain things do not carry it..

Do you mean when Mace Windu blocks the force lightening with his Saber and deflects it back to Palpatine?

I think I'm going to make my own fan-edit, it is going to subtly improve upon Adywan's Revisited. It is mostly going to be fixing the remaining continuity errors and removing and changing a few sounds and lines of dialogue. 

First, I will be fixing the "Octopus Droid" continuity errors.

Second, I will be reducing and removing the sounds made by the Rontos.

Third, I will be removing Han's smile after "no questions asked."

Forth, I will be re-inserting Luke's original dialog seen here (I like it better, just because he really does return doesn't mean he can't say never):

Fifth, I will be adding blue hue to the cockpit windows seen here:

Sixth, I will show an extended version of the Millenium Falcon coming out of hyperspace seen in ROTJ:

Seventh, I will be adding red flares to the backs of all the Tie Fighters missing them.

 

That's all I can think of at the moment, I will update this periodically as I come up with more stuff.

I'm pretty sure they are Dewbacks and not Rontos, also I would keep Hans smile it's part of his character and I think it would be a bad move ot remove it. But thats just me :)

Hi all,

I fancy doing some rotoscoping, I'm very fluent in photoshop so this should'nt be a problem, the problem I'm having is getting the video into an image sequence for editing, from what I can gather I can rip my vobs to my HDD then import into Virtual Dub Mod, convert to an avi and then export as a .flm file again I hit a brick wall as Photoshop can only handly so much and crashes if the file size is too big.

The other option I hav come across which I'm sure your all familier with is to use Virtual Dub Mod and expot as an image sequence, although I have no idea on how to loadthe image sequence back into Virtual Dub Mod.

What are peoples best experiences with using either of these programs to export image files?

I've been reading this thread and I'm amazed at all the great ideas that are in it!

 

Anyhoo I've always wondered what Vader is thinking when the Emperor  is engulfing Luke with the Force lightening, theres obviousley something going on in his mind and something that triggers his destiny to do away with Palpatine, soooo how about inserting some flashback dialogue ie

 

 

---

 

Queen Amidala: You're a slave? 
Anakin: I'm a person and my name is Anakin

And at that point Vader turns on Palpatine.

 

Just an idea..

Hello there mouse nice to have you onboard, for various reasons many of us here are anti-flashback, flashforward but there was a line that was originally in the ROTJ duel that was removed or not recorded but may be reconstructed.

Luke at some point said, "I will not become a slave to the Dark Side".

If this could be put back in it would underline how Vader was born a slave and has remained a slave all his life without the need for a flashback.

 

Now that would be a nice addition, I love Star Wars and have done for all of my life :) but I'm amazed at the stuff you guys know!

Surley there must be an audio clipping of this floating around somewhere..

I've just watched the trailer here at work and WOW! I have never seen one of your edits before or any come to think of it and I am blown away by what I just saw. 

Keep up the good work Ady!

Many thanks for the info guys, I feel very stupid now lol, I'm just getting Key framing under my belt now and trying to figure out what would work in a trailer I thought of a really good intro but then looked around and Adywan had already done it! back to the drawing board I go..

Hi everyone,

Firstly let me introduce my self , I'm a 30yr old who love Star Wars and has a love for movies in general, I have never done any movie editing what so ever and thought I would never do any until I found this site and also listed to a guy called Adywan do a radio interview, so after browsing the site and listening to the interview I am hooked!! so to get me started in editing in general I thout it would be a good idea to make a few short Star Wars trailers to let me get the hang of editing and the use of Sony Vegas which at this time is the only editing software I have at my disposal!

My question is this, after I drag my footage into the timeline in Vegas I can only see 2 or 3 parts of the footage, how do I view every single frame of the footage in the timeline? I've googled and I cannot find an answer..

I hope someone can help me with this as I am eager to get started!
