I give ep5 a 6/10…For me and I haven’t seen anyone touch on this but for me it was literally hard to watch…THE SHAKY CAM! MY GOD…It almost makes me cry how frustrating this show makes me with how much better it could look and feel. EVERY SINGLE INTENSE HAS THE CAMERA MAN ON A TRAMPOLINE. I don’t think there can be anything done about that except if someone puts in a tiny bit of stabilization in the hallway scene, kinda a long shot, I dunno.

As for the deepfake situation. ABSOLUTELY wait for Shamook (the guy hired for Luke in Boba Fett) to release a deepfake of the scene, I’m certain he will do something with it. We might be able to get a hold of him and ask for the resources to implement ourselves. We have seen him around on the site before and he has helped us. Also might be a long shot but worth a try. I used his resources for Luke in Mando S1 to edit the deepfake into the full ep before, and I’m pretty sure I can do it again.
I think a little bit of color grading would help cement the flash back scene into the feel of the prequels. To me the shots looked a bit too much like a studio. maybe if it was changed to golden hour or dawn that might i dunno bring out the Coruscant-iness
On top of everything else everyone will be talking about regarding editing, I think the shots of the ships however we edit them should be slowed down a tiny bit. they moved wayyy to quickly to look right. they looked like they were made of paper.

Better episode, still disappointed overall…ON THE BRIGHT SIDE I have come to terms with the fact this show is PERFECT for a fan edit and I know we will be able to raise the quality to what it can be.
