Hah, you said that just as I was editing my own post to add that thought. Once I’ve watched the first Mandalore arc I’ll be diving into Smudger’s Geonosis/Mandalore film to see how he’s handled things- and it’s no surprise that he’s opted to interlace those two since it does make sense.

(Whether or not I think moviefying the episodes is the right approach, a huge priority will always be episode polish so I’m still very interested in how he and other editors are doing things.)

And I’m glad you’re enjoying these updates! It’s an important brain dump, but I was worried that people would think I was being obnoxious by updating so frequently. It’s good to know that people are getting a kick out of it, and who knows how many lurkers are themselves getting inspired by an intimate look at the process.

Please, anyone who’s reading this, add your voices to this discussion, even to respond to my older posts. Agree or disagree, it’ll all help focus the project.
