Kenobi Duel - Part I (Still needs work on the new saber)

So, changes:

  • Pacing.
  • Obi-Wan only flee from Darth Vader once. The fear of the moment falls flat when Obi-Wan escape twice within one minute, in my opinion.
  • I had to add a saber to one of the scenes with Darth Vader, as it was originally off (“I am what you made me”).
  • Obi-Wan ignites his saber as muscle memory when Vader ignites his, even in fear - the original ignition felt out of place, when he is in a less dangerous situation.
  • Removed Obi-Wan looking for Vader in the darkness with his glowing plastic saber. The scene just… reminds me of AOTC when Anakin & Dooku have that weird closeup with their sabers. Urgh.

Part II is as in the original episode.

Kenobi Duel - Part III (Still needs volume adjustments due to some overlapping music)

Changes:

  • New soundtrack at certain key parts to mirror the emotional weight from ROTS and give the scene more identity.
  • Fixed pacing.
  • Removed two horrible shots.
  • Improved pacing when Anakin grabs Obi-Wan. The original lingers on shots for way too long.
  • Prevented a bunch of inter-cuts.
    … and some new sfx.
