We don’t like French people here. Jar Jar Binks was basically your fault.

The incomprehensible speech, the lack of military prowess, the fact that he’s a giant frog – of course! It all makes sense now!

Sacrebleu, we’re innocent !

PS : sorry for my late reaction, we’re very busy right now, editing the new Rogue One reshoots for Disney executives. Real fans will dig it (spoiler : hilarious bloopers during the ending credits on War’s “Why can’t we be friends ?”)

Thanks Smudger, can’t wait to watch Episode IV. Any news on when links will be up or are they currently being processed by FanEdit.Info?

I have the vimeo stream link and a 1080 download ready. Bluray is rendering.

Is a PM sent to you the best way to get the links or are you going to put them somewhere ?

edit: what 8 episodes have you exactly used ? (using your description I can count the following: Children of the Force, The Mandalore Plot, Voyage of Temptation, Duchess of Mandalore, Senate Spy, Corruption, The Academy, Landing at Point Rain, Weapons Factory, Legacy of Terror, and Brain Invaders, but I guess a few aren’t part of your project)

The EPIV BluRay is now done.

I have replied to all the PM’s I have been sent. However, I’ve had quite a few over the last 2 weeks. If anyone has not received a reply then please message me again and I’ll provide the links you need.

Thanks. I’ll be sure to post a proper review here (or on fanedit ?).

Just a quick remark: you should ask someone to read your opening crawl next time 😃 (“seperatist”).

And it seems there is the same technical issue present on your other episodes, some kind of frame slow-down in speed for transitions wipes. I don’t know if it’s intentional or an editing issue (i.e. something you can’t correct).

edit: a little bit more important: I’m afraid you’ve made an error when you’ve imported the 5.1 audio track:

  • channel 1 is front left
  • channel 2 is front right
  • channel 3 is center
  • channel 4 is the basse (0.1)
  • channel 5 is rear left
  • channel 6 is rear right

I think you’ve interverted 2/3 and 4/5.

The frame slow down in some of the wipes is intentional. Its usually when I’m creating a transition between 2 separate stories. The cuts are often too abrupt, so I have to slow the speed down slightly to create a wipe.

As for the channels, I’ve just checked and you’re absolutely right.
I work with the standard channel set up in Final Cut Pro and I have the audiobars visible whilst editing, so they are definitely correct, however, Compressor has exported the channels in the L C R Ls Rs LFE order. How bizarre.

Yep, and the issue does not appear on your previous edits. Well, it’s something really easy to correct with audacity (I’m doing it right now).

(edit: “L C R Ls LFE Rs” order you mean ?)

Ok about the slow down speed, I was wondering why because most of the wipes don’t have this slower motion. So I guess it’s fine !

Aaaarrgggghhhh. This is infuriating. It appears to have happened since I updated Final Cut Pro X. The only order the damn thing will export the surround sound in is L C R Ls Rs LFE.

Sent you a private message good sir, these look fantastic.

Hey, new to this site. Just watched SW CW EI and absolutely loved it! Looking to continue with the other three but links on fe.info aren’t working. Any chance someone could PM links to the other three films? Much appreciated 😃

I’ve absolutely loved your first 3 edits of The Clone Wars. They are absolutely the definitive way to see TCW. Very excited to see Episode IV. Could you PM it to me?

It can be tough when you want to use a wipe in a shot that wasn’t rendered or filmed for one! The amount of time between the end of the action and when they cut the shot can be too short to work with. So, sometimes you need to slow down or loop something if you want to build a wipe.

In Premeire (and probably other packages), you can make it look a little better by turning on Frameblending for the slowdown (interpolation).

As Mal said, you should be able to just swap the tracks in Audacity or similar.

Ok about the wipes: since I’ve never gone as far as trying to do wipes in editing I didn’t know how hard it could be. So indeed it’s a very small issue that’s just noticeable here and there.

Excellent Episode IV by the way, with great fan-editing (you’ve achieved near perfection here, hope you’ll find enough time to complete your project and to make a few small corrections to your 3 first three edits as well). Funny thing is that the overall plot (the first two acts) is like an AOTC reboot which ends with another Geonosis battle (had the actual AOTC been done that way, we wouldn’t be that harsh against this Episode). Must confess I’m not a fan of the brain invaders subplot but there wasn’t much choice to complete the story with Ahsoka narrative arc otherwise. So really, an excellent episode that makes the uneven tvseries a worthy addition to the canon. And the best episodes are still to come 😃

I guess next installment will deal with Ventress and the Nightsisters, introducing formely Darth Maul ?

I’ve been passively keeping an eye on this for a while, but haven’t had the time to sit down and watch them until now. Where can I watch these? I checked on MySpleen, but couldn’t find them.
