Needed sources

  1. A VHS recording of the second half of the original broadcast of episode 13. It is ok if the quality is bad (though good quality is still preferable) because I mainly just need reference.

Needed information

  1. Were there any alterations to the Disney+ release of Ewoks?
  2. How do you open the mac version of Dr. Dre’s color matching tool?
  3. Is there an existing recording of Ewoks on Ice?
  4. any recommendations on how I should deal with the constant change in framerate?

Other needed help

  1. after I am done with each episode can someone sync all the subtitle files so that there are subtitles for the whole thing.

I was already aware of most of that except the blue harvest/across the dune sea one which I did not know there was a YouTube posting of. So thank you.

update:
I have finished the Ewoks half of episode 13. but I need a VHS recording of the second half and the recording of the pal VHS tapes which I am waiting to get via PM to proceed to the droids half. So I will be moving on to the Haunted Village which I have all the needed sources for to recreate the full episode.

ok, so I just finished episode 2 and I am distributing it as a sample of this project to get feedback. if you want it shoot me a PM and I will give you the resilio key.

There is one thing I ran into, the adventure Hour intro does not just copy and paste clips from the show but instead takes clips from the show and removes some of their background and foreground elements. so a better quality version of the intro would be greatly apreciated.
