Very cool mockups Snooker!

What does Geonosis being a junk planet add to the story, if I may ask?

Also, the old design plans for the Death Star look great! I’m in love with it. I think for any fan edit that still features that element in AOTC, that the old design should definitely be used. I think that idea could be extended to the Death Star at the end of ROTS and moving the dish to the equator, since apparently that Death Star is only a prototype and not the final one we see in ANH. It would make that clearer at least.

Did it take a lot of time to do that? I feel it could be a great asset for others.

You know, you also could have the Death Star hologram appear in the middle of the meeting room during the scene where Dooku speaks with the Separatist leaders, if you wanted to find ways to give the plans more screentime.

I feel like Anakin and Padmé’s relationship being forbidden is important for the story, but I understand why you might want to remove that idea.

Continue to share stuff with us, man! Looking cool.

EDIT: Have you tried making the hologram red like the original? I like it how you have it too but it might look good that way as well and fit more with the red flash after he closes the hologram.
