After a trillion years, I finally finished the Alderaan Explosion sequence to a degree in which I find acceptable. The colors are a bit overexposed but at this point I’m too tired to keep on going (lol)

I adjusted the size of the explosions a bit to fit in more in-frame and fixed the little jitteriness at the start. If you may find it a bit lacking in quality, its WAY better in HD.

Aside from this one, I decided to make two changes:
1.) I have decided to not do the speeder shadow removal + replacement because my current skills in editing isnt good enough to do that sort of thing, plus I can barely run any 3D rendering program such as Blender on this computer.

2.) I removed the Jabba confrontation scene in the SE completely using an iris wipe transition carefully masked to hide the transition from ILM, I’ll be posting that soon along with others.

As of right now the edit is heading its way into completion, however if I were to make a hypothetical V2, It would mainly tackle on the speeder shadow replacement + fixing the jump-cuts using fantamorph.

EDIT: Updated first post to update some sources and add these changes in
