Finally! Finally, I got to escape from my relatives. Yeah, sorry it took so long to get back, but I should be free of distractions now. Anyway, while I was dealing with the relatives, I learned how to use the curves on Resolve. Let’s just say I’ve gotten spoiled by them. So much so that I’m grading it again. I promise this is the last time I’ll play with the color grading for v2. Then, I’ll release it.
In other news, I’ve got a few updates. I got some money from my mom’s life insurance for Christmas. So, I spent some of that money on a Mac Pro and I’m hoping to switch all of my editing work towards that computer instead. I expect that it will be very useful for my fanedits in the future (I’m confident that episode III is gonna be completely edited on this Mac).
I also bought a new microphone, since the one I was using for my commentary is a cheap pile of garbage (which is why my commentary track still hasn’t been completed). I will be working on the commentary track as soon as either 1. The microphone arrives and/or 2. v2 is released.
In addition, I’m considering buying an external blu-ray drive, so that I can rip the transfers from my blu-ray discs. This would give me a good chance of submitting my edits to fanedit.org, which is something I’ve wanted to do. However, this is going to be a while, and I still prefer the Schormann files over the blu-ray discs (especially Episode I for the film grain and muppet Yoda). But, for those who are curious, I will probably call the blu-ray rip v3. So yes, a lot of interesting things are about to happen soon. For now, though, I want to devote myself towards finishing up v2 within this month, because I’ve delayed it long enough. Hang in there, folks! V2’s a comin’.
