I’m a star wars heathen. no purist here.

Got some ideas… learnt some things from doing captain marvel. decided to experiment. using my bluray UHD source and regrading it to my liking. adding some visual effects.

I might introduce some deleted scenes if I can clean them up well enough for my liking. also, if I can figure out how to edit them well. the dialogue is a little aimless…

want to make Darth Vader more imposing and I want to make the characters more well rounded and more prominent, and want to reduce the presence of the droids. I can’t empathise with droids and I think it’s why I personally find this movie to be a bit boring.

in case you don’t notice some things…

  • I’m colour matching the tantive IV interior to the scenes from Rogue one, which I plan to include.
  • I added a sunset to the scenes in the moisture farm.
  • I restored the mountains the the dual sunset. it was really sloppy of them to just remove the mountains, it was a really beautiful shot and they trashed it.
  • I adjusted smarmy imp’s complexion to match the fact he is choking.
  • I added smog/haze to mos eisley
  • I did some stuff to try and improve the horrible CG closeup of a beast thing.
  • I did some adjustments to Leia’s skin tone to try and enhance her emotions.
  • I added mood lighting to the weapon startup sequence. so romantic now. 🥰
  • made alderaan look somewhat hot before it explodes.
  • gave the death star an actual shadow that is cast on hte millenium falcon as it approaches. .
