HELP NEEDED:
Here’s where I need some help - mostly technical, but a few issues with finding access to source material I need.
- Rendering new opening crawl.
- Getting access to “Cobalt Squadron” audiobook narrated by KMT, to create new Rose Tico line of dialogue (“The shuttle’s being towed!”).
- Removing music from dialogue. (“Red plomme bloom!” “The Master Codebreaker!”)
- Colour correct shot of red plomme bloom so that it’s on DJ’s jacket.
- Remove lightsaber audio from dialogue in third flashback.
- Add 4K source shot to punch in for Snoke closeup.
- Extend final group shot on the Falcon by a few seconds.
I can definitely help with the opening crawl. What were you thinking of for the text? Unless I’m dead blind and can’t find it.
I put it in the screenplay on Drive but nowhere else, so it is a bit buried. I’ve only changed the first paragraph; I originally planned to add something in the third paragraph to indicate it’s been a few months since the events of TFA, but it felt clunky and ultimately not worth the effort of changing the whole thing around it.
And thanks! I know there’s the fantastic Blender plugin for opening crawls, but my laptop won’t run Blender properly.
I can also probably help with the plomme bloom but I’m not sure specifically what you were thinking that would entail. Speaking of which, not really sure what you mean by removing lightsaber audio from dialogue in the third flashback.
I’ll export the current workprint of the plomme bloom bit and it’ll become clearer what I’m angling at. With the third flashback, I realised when I was listening with headphones that you can still hear the lightsaber humming while Luke narrates - except in this version, he’s just turned the lightsaber off.
