That’s wonderful. No complaints at all. Thanks for posting that second cap, because it shows how you’d already thought of that.

This shot was always lit with the idea that the ship was in hyperspace, and looks somewhat dark. The later scene being worked on wasn’t, and appears bright. It’s almost like the Falcon’s interior lights were on during that scene. Comparing two scenes from TFA of the cockpit during hyperspace travel (“I bypassed the compressor” vs. “We’re making our landing approach at lightspeed”), they each are lit differently.
The later scene may not need to be darkened much, just made bluish, since it appears to have light sources within the cockpit itself.
I say this, but it may prove different once you see it in front of you to work on.
