Update:

  • GMatias sent me a 4k version of the shot of Snoke I needed; I’ve integrated it into the edit and the shot transition looks great now.
  • I’m working on Rose’s line using clips from Cobalt Squadron. It’s slow going because there’s so many different options for words and phonemes - it’s nearly a five hour audio file of KMT talking! - and there’s a few different ways the sentence can be worded depending on the available inflections of different words.

Only General Leia Organa’s band of RESISTANCE fighters stand against the rising tyranny, certain that Jedi Master Luke Skywalker will return and restore a spark of hope to the fight.

But the Resistance has been tracked down and exposed. As the First Order speeds toward the rebel base, the brave heroes mount a desperate escape…
