Love your work so far. I’m looking forward to include this ROTJ edit in my saga marathons.
Do you plan to edit the obvious matte painting backgrounds in some scenes, like when Lando and Han discuss the Falcon at the hangar bay?
Also is there any way to add new ships to the background of some Rebel fleet shots? It would be pretty to see U-Wings, Hammerhead corvettes, Separatist cruisers or The Ghost.

First of all, thank you, I appreciate it.
Second… consider that the software I’m using is Sony Vegas, not After effects. So my possibilities are limited.
I changed the matte painting background at the beginning, replacing Jabba’s palace.
About the hangar bay I cut the shot of Lando going towards the Falcon, but as of today I kept all previous shots the way they are. If someone can find a better background, I can mask Lando and Han and add it to the shot. Problem is that I didn’t find anything online. I’d also like to replace some of the Endor backgrounds, but again, I didn’t find anything usable. Battlefront II shots are nice, but there is no clear image of the shield generator or the landing platform…
Finally, about the Rebel fleet. The only thing I could do would be to add some ships from the green screen youtube videos. I noticed that there is a U-Wing video, and also a Lucrehulk, and Hammerhead… I’ll try to add them somewhere. I didn’t find the Ghost.
