Is there a repeated Poe shot? The one that he looks over to the hole in the oscillator. Is that the same one used for when he’s looking at the Starkiller’s laser?

I think so.

Originally I had used the shot of the female pilot reacting to an explosion (which I think fits better), but I suppose it was too obvious a repeat if the original scene was going to be played verbatim. I think some editing could be done to put her reaction back in the Starkiller firing and simply remove that reaction from the original scene.

I think if you add some Starkiller laser glow it shouldn’t be a problem.

I did that when I worked on the slow motion effect for that part, so the shot isn’t identical in color, at least.

Would flipping the shots be a possibility ? (I noticed the re-use of those shots as well)

Flipping wouldn’t work well, but maybe cropping and/or reversing the shot could work.

Also, we have no plans to do FX work on Kylo Ren’s hood in the second Snoke scene; it seems like something out of our reach.

I think it’s actually very much doable (for someone who unlike me has any skills in that area) as the only shots that need editing are those where we see Kylo (and Hux) from behind, looking up at Snoke. And there is a shot with the same camera angle that shows Kylo with his hood. So it should be possible to take Kylo from that shot and put him on top of the unmasked shots.

I guess I can have a look when the other things are done.

Hal 9000 could you possibly give me timestamps for all the fx edits by any chance ?

Here are some slowed down shots for the Falcon escape scene. Are they the last ones needed?

They’re not quite perfect since the visuals are so complicated. The frame blending doesn’t work great on fast motion and multiple layers of motion, but at least it doesn’t stutter anymore.

Of course there is still the simpler solution of simply cutting out a bit of the music, like I originally did, and you won’t have to use slowed shots and new sound effects. But the slowed shots should work pretty well now.

Rian Johnson said that are over 20min of fully completed (But deleted) scenes that will be on the Last Jedi bluray. Help us Hal 9000, you’re our only hope.

But that’s it, barring any potential work on Kylo Ren’s hood. 😃

Hello there.

I have taken a stab at cloakless Kylo. If you look very closely you might see the shakiness of the matte but I think it works well enough.

Let me know if you need it in any other format.

Wow that is just incredible! You guys never cease to amaze me.

Looks pretty frakkin’ good to me!

New Maz scene audio! I decided against adding more Star Destroyer sounds in the beginning, I think it doesn’t work without seeing the ship. I raised the volume of the worried crowd though, for Finn to react to. And the Maz/Han exchange should be a bit easier to hear now.

That hoodless Kylo is great. Amazing work krlozdak!
