So far, it’s been fun!
You got it!
Well, you will once it’s done 😉
@Chase Adams, I still appreciate your comments!

Minor bump… Just realised I had forgotten to mention this earlier in regards to your Palpatine’s office video, but I do really enjoy getting to hear fan-editors break down problematic scenes and explain their reasons for changes etc… I dunno, I guess especially with the prequels, learning someone else’s take on things that don’t work and how to address it really helps me approach my own attempts to edit with a different mindset.
So by all means, if you’re planning on doing more videos like this, I’d very much be interested! 😉
Probably part of the reason I’ve always been a sucker for the behind the scenes content of films more so than the actual film is just because I love learning about the hidden creative process and mentality behind things that isn’t always so obvious onscreen.
Your commentary on how you felt watching all of this unfold in cinemas is great as well! 😄
I’ve always loved reading members of this site’s stories about experiencing the prequels for the first time and I still continue to get a laugh out of it. 😆
Hey everyone
Just droppin’ a link for a fun little thing I whipped up these last couple of days:
https://youtu.be/OK9zXs7qMJI
ALSO, the news you didn’t want to hear (but might’ve began to wonder about):
I’ve pretty much given up on finishing my edit. I think I started this project with delusions of grandeur. There are certain things I’ve wanted to pull off and I just haven’t come up with decent solutions. I just don’t have the patience to do all the things I want to, nor the experience-…nor the software.
I do intent to finish a workprint because I don’t want to disappoint those who have looked forward to it. But I want to warn you, you will find sections of it disappointing because I just haven’t completed a lot of the things I started.
What a fun way to end a message! 😛

Lol, funny video. Sad to hear you won’t be finishing this edit, I was really interested in seeing this. At least you’ll upload a workprint.

I totally forgot to respond to this! Thank you so much for the kind words Chase Adams! I certainly enjoyed making the Palpatines Office video because I did finally get to put some thoughts out there that I’d had for years! I’m glad it has been of at least some benefit to you!
I am considering doing some sort of commentary track for the workprint…so I can put more of my thoughts out there as well as explain some of my unfinished ideas you’ll end up seeing. 😉

Thanks for the kind words everyone- even though the edit is a mess! 😄
I hadn’t touched this edit in months.
Didn’t wanna see it ever again.
Was just sick of it.
Then the other day…
And, hell, since I’m advertising, in case you missed my video “$6000 Star Wars Cantina Scene?!!”:

Nice! You did a great job adding more tension to the scene. I’m glad you opened up the project again 😃

Here’s something I’ve wanted to attempt for a long time.
It’s unfinished, but that’s because I was hoping for feedback before continuing work on it.

Wow, interesting idea there. To be honest, the first time watching I assumed that Zam’s scope was actually Jar Jar’s POV for some reason (idk, maybe this new green Gungan has a bionic eye lol). I think it’s because the “Welcome, Jedi” line comes immediately before the assassination attempt, so my brain sort of connected the two. Giving that part a little more breathing room might help it sell better; maybe extend the shot of Padmé and Typho if possible.
I think seeing Zam might help too, but I understand that’s a hard thing to get working and may cause a different set of issues.
Thanks for sharing your work 👍
“Always in motion is the future” 🌌
Oh interesting! That’s not something I anticipated- well, obviously I didn’t, or I would’ve addressed it! 😉
Unfortunately, I can’t really extend the shot of Padme and Typho…the traffic in the background wouldn’t end up looking right.
However, I did originally wonder about Jar Jar’s subtitles getting in the way of the scene. I’m now wondering if I recorded Jar Jar speaking the lines in English (and removed the subtitles) if that would take away the confusion…?
And, heck, I may attempt putting a shot of Zam back in…if I can make it work to my taste. 😉
Thank you so much for the feedback!

I’m curious: does anyone know if there’s an edit of AOTC that removes the nightclub scene?
That’s what I’ve done here:
I just wanna say: I love originaltrilogy.com
I’ve been a member since 2006!
I check in on several threads but I’m just not actively posting.
When compared to every other thread, my posts are never lengthy. I prefer posting my thoughts in video form as opposed to taking the time to write it all out. I’ve always struggled with putting words to my thought process anyways.
I just feel kinda funny bumping my thread every time I release another youtube video. As you can tell by my channel, I’ve been releasing more videos…trying to grow the channel.
Is it annoying when I post here? I try to keep it to a minimum…
Well, either way, thanks to everyone who checks in on this thread!
I just felt I needed to address some of these thoughts I’ve had here.
Thanks again!

No, it is absolutely not annoying. I can understand trying to keep posts to a minimum; I rarely post despite obsessively checking this site several times a day. But this is your thread dude! It’s perfectly appropriate to bump it.
Whether it’s a post here, or a video, I can’t get enough content that explores the process of fanediting. I enjoy it all. So do what you’d like!

Remember Palpatines…um…aging discrepancy in ATOC?
I may have found a way to fix it:

This reply’s probably a little useless, but I wanna say I really love a lot of the ideas presented in the edit! Be it radical, like the complete rewriting of Anakin (I especially am a sucker for him calling Obi-Wan Ben), injecting actual chemistry into Anakin and Padme’s dynamic, many of the small visual performance tweaks, or even how some scenes are restructured (the removal of the nightclub especially is clever).
Look forward to seeing how this forms!
Hey, no I really appreciate the feedback! Thanks!
It’s funny, I stepped away from the edit for a month now or so. Didn’t know if I wanted to mess with it anymore. And just yesterday, started fiddling around with the edit again! 😄

Howdy peoples!
It’s been a bit since I posted any sort of update on my edit. However, I did just make a new video with a reedited version of the fireplace scene.
All of Anakin’s dialogue has been completely rewritten. Now, the direction of their conversation has been altered to emphasize the roles they play (senator and jedi) are not exactly conducive for a long lasting relationship. I’m downplaying the “love is forbidden for a jedi” bit in my edit. It’ll still be there…sort of…you can better see how I’m going to use that aspect here:

An updated version of a shot of Padme looking worried:
My original version was done in EbSynth and it just didn’t look right…I ended up having to adjust it in Davinci Resolve and I just couldn’t pull it off to my liking.
For the new version, I was able to apply a photoshopped image to the surface tracker (in Davinci Resolve) and it turned out quite a bit better.

I’ve been playing around with the scene where Anakin and Padme return to Tatooine:
shameless plug.
that is all.

Hello there,
I’ve been watching the forums for years but I haven’t registered until now. I like what you’re doing, although I have to rewatch the saga to remind myself of what works and what doesn’t. But here are a few comments.
Is that JK Simmons laughing at the beginning of the video? 😛 A part of me thinks that you should make a duet of your homestead song with Jar jar, who won’t stop singing with improper english. 🤣
When it comes to your edits, I like the fact that Anakin knows Owen. I think I would preferably also cut Cliegg’s introduction, because I guess it would make sense that they’ve already met. Perhaps AI could make him say “Hello, son” or just “son” since I think he later says “Your mother’s dead, son”. Then he would still say that they’ve got a lot to talk about. I’m also a big fan of cutting the bar scene with Zam. Before I saw that clip, I don’t think it occured to me that it was even possible! 😉
The Force will be with you. Always.

You mean sound effect with my logo? ha ha no…it’s some anime sound effect I found.
I hadn’t thought about changing any of Cliegg’s lines…hmmm…perhaps…
Someone in my comments pointed out that if they are actually brothers, Owen’s last name would be Skywalker and not Lars (which, of course, it is in ANH). I felt quite stupid after that was pointed out! lol
So, I’m thinking I might rework Anakin’s dialogue to mention his cousin Owen. That would work, right? Cousins?
And yeah, the cutting of the bar scene: I still think it’s my favorite cut I discovered while playing around in editing.
Thanks for the feedback! I’m honored to be the first thread you posted in here!😁
