Obviously some of the effects shots are incomplete and some sound effects are still absent, like Kylo walking through the snow and the launching of the TIE fighters as Rey hides. I’m pretty happy with the order of scenes now, but if you had thoughts about the structure or the music (another work in progress) they are of course welcome.

The whispers are from TLJ when Rey first senses the Jedi tree. Since they have a sort of sinister feel I’ve incorporated them into several scenes throughout the film to highlight the idea that the Force, and more specifically the Dark Side, is calling out to her in these moments and offering her quick and easy power.

The ‘Ship’s clear’ went through a denoising pass in Audacity to remove the music, but agreed that it feels rough. If you happen across any stormtrooper dialogue that would work better that would be excellent, since I haven’t found a suitable replacement yet.

I experimented briefly with replacing the background of the Kylo shot with the Oscillator but it felt weird to have the Falcon within visual distance of the base, so my current plan is to have some subtle flashes on the underside of the clouds as if the battle is happening behind one of the closer mountain ranges.
