TFA: A Gentle Restructure (Released) — Page 47

I don’t know why it’s not working this time. Perhaps use Lagarith, I can render it from VirtualDub with that just fine.

I can roll that clip into yours when I compile it in my timeline, if that’s easier.

This one seems to work perfectly, thank you!

Here’s the final version, color corrected and with sound effects throughout (there’s an update in the dialogue only version which occurs at the final shot of the deleted scene):

Hopefully everything’s all set for the final render now. 😃

The first shot had too much blue in the shadows compared to the rest so I tried to make them all self-consistent, though perhaps not consistent with the rest of the base. it’s more ideal than reality on my part, but if Hal wants to make it consistent with the rest of the base that would be just fine. 😃

I will take a look and see what to do with these. I will be occupied today, going around eating pie and such, but should be able to give some attention to it tomorrow.
I believe all I would need after this is the opening crawl and the Star Destroyer over Maz’s Castle sequence. 😄

Here’s how the scene looks once it’s fully baked into the rest of my timeline. I recreated the wipes to and from the ships flying by because I slightly retimed the fade of the music to match, and so I could use the original sound effects of the ships which would be jarring to lose. I think NeverarGreat’s recoloring of the deleted scene itself blends more smoothly into the rest of the film, so I’ve used that.
I am certain these are issues with the source material itself, but Leia’s line about taking action against the First Order sounds as if it were cobbled together. And it sounds like she is doing a Rick belch as she says the word “insane.” I don’t remember noticing these before, though I probably haven’t done such a close examination. Not big deals.

I altered the audio of ‘this First Order’ to make it sound like ‘the First Order’, since the original sounded like she couldn’t decide which word to go with.

Also, I don’t know if this is a Vimeo compression thing or not, but the scene looks a lot more blue than Ridley’s grade: http://www.framecompare.com/image-compare/screenshotcomparison/0B1NNN8U

Sir Ridley, is it possible to upload a version without color correction? I’d like to take a crack at matching it more closely to the other scenes. 😛

Would you please export a version of the dialogue track without the tweak to Leia’s line?

Here you go:

Thank you! Might you also supply the direct audio from the deleted scene, unprocessed? I only own the original BluRay, not the one with all the good stuff on it. Appreciated.

Here’s the demuxed audio from the deleted scenes, as unprocessed as it gets:

The relevant audio sections are at 1:16-1:21 and 4:21-4:36.

Thanks very much. I’m giving the SKB explosion some fresh eyes, and had the obvious (in retrospect) idea to sub the stereo OST in for your mono music track, helping that sequence from feeling un-dynamic.

I see(well really hear) what you mean about the taking action sounds did feel cobbled together. There is a slight off-ness to it.

Personally the belch isn’t bad at all. 😉. I don’t think that stands out at all compared to the rest of her lines, it fits with the way she talks.

You are all awesome for working on this. I can’t wait to see it all done. My buds are doing a Return of the Jedi & Force Awakens viewing before the new movie comes out. Hopefully I could show them this version if it gets done! (Obviously no rush or pressure, I’d rather wait for more polish then “rushed” out. 😃)

Another attempt. I was thankfully able to use the deleted scene sounds to squeeze a few seconds of ‘dead air’ sounds to adapt to the scene in question. I think it sounds about as good as it’s going to.

It sounds like it is pretty smooth, until Leia says “…it.” It hits pretty abrutly hard. The music transitions nicely to the next scene and the ambient noise. But man, “it” hits hard.

I think that’s just an issue with there being a mechanical noise at the same moment. Not much to be done about that.
Leia still trips over ‘this First Order’ though, which is a shame.

Good feedback! Here’s another attempt.

Huge improvement, seriously!
