You could try to go back and do version closer to your original test, but cut out the “rather talkative cargo pilot line” and the “time and ally of the Rebellion” line. Cutting those lines can help from repeating those shots as much as possible. But you would still need to change the background of the Krennic shot, or at least remove the panel where we can see the Death Star in the background. Enough to show that it might just be the other side of the bridge windows.

If you just had to have another insert for that second Tarkin scene, maybe you could use another angle of the technicians pressing buttons that is from the scene that you removed after the Jedha test. You kept Tarkin’s lines but removed the scene, but there might be some extra insert shots you could pull from there. Otherwise you need to crop around Krennic turning to create a more appropriate background as he turns.

Well there reason I suggested cutting that scene sooner where he asks if the plans are on Scarif is because the multiple wide shots are awkward partially because how the officer keep slowly swinging his arms as he is standing there because of how you reused the shots. If you could make just make that part of him a still image it might be less noticeable.

I was thinking you fade from the white screen straight to the shot of the Tantive IV flying away from the battle, but that might work too. Or since the camera is moving left to right during shot of seeing the explosion from space, you could just cut to the Tantive IV flying away in the original left to right direction so the momentum is going in the same direction. Or flip the shot of the planet explosion and havebit back right to left.
