Did you sort of make the Falcon light a little red and ominous at first to make the audience think it is the planet’s erupting magma (hinting at eminent danger for Rey and Finn), but then it becoming the white light of the Falcon’s spotlights? If so, really nice touch!

Maybe it is because I’m looking at the scene independently from the film, but the pacing of the shots feel a little prolonged, in particular the wide shot we sit on before it cuts to the chasm opening shots.

I’m just spitballing, but I wonder if it would help if the sound of the earth cracking could slowly get louder as we get closer to the actual cracking shots. I also wonder if that second wide shot could use a little more camera shake, and then become more stable as the Falcon light becomes more prominent.
