So I present the Hue Shifted Gout Color Correction Sample.

Hope you like it but if you don’t I am not bothered either 😃

I purchased a copy of the 97 five star collection dvd of the 1997 version so I will be pairing that with this in places, only having the 97 broadcast version available to myself (4:3) , it would seem that some of the Millennium falcon cockpit shots are much better in the 97 version (Looking out in to Space) and also to pair Some Special edition elements for a semi-specialised edition but I really like the 97 audio mix a lot I have to say.

I am also planning on using a couple of shots from the Silver Screen edition (2gb mp4) for the hexagon lights issue and the Landspeeder shot (after storm trooper check point) in Mos eisley.

Anyway this is where I am at and this will match the 97 version come the end the two sources are of similar quality I would imagine so this will be a good blend and also good color match.

Using Star Wars the Illustrated script as a bit of a guide on the 1997 version and also a reason for doing the Hue shifts for which the 1997 version was shifted and corrected in places.

If you are going to critique fine just don’t go overboard, but I am showing the process to you now in finished form apart from one shot which I noticed has purple problem.

This basically looks good to my eyes, although it’s a bit different, I am awaiting the onslaught of negativity and flogging / bashing.

Edit: Having watched it a few times I noticed that Chewie in the Matte shot by the elevators is in wrong color so will fix that and a few highlights need de-saturating.
