About avoiding deja-vu: I'm pretty sure that throughout the course of this dream, there is not one shot identical to any other shot in the movie (or any of the movies, for that matter). I've cropped from full-screen, flipped shots, and messed with the color so much that this will probably be a non-issue. One change I've made since the last post was that I've flopped both of the shots of Anakin in bed, because I like it better and also because now, his face and his mother's are not quite on top of each other anymore. I couldn't fip the shot of Shmi anyway because there's the continuity problem with her large scar.

Thanks and, I actually didn't think of doing that kind of a cut until I saw your screenshots. I just thought of another way a hard cut could work. Mabye he starts to say "Mom, no, no" in his dream. Then cut to the start of the zoom and, he continues his lines. Again it's just another suggestion that may not work with the style of dream you've made. I'm very glad to hear that deja vu won't take place though.
