Definitely works better to show that Kenobi actually went somewhere to get into the water. Nice job!

Great to hear. I’m going to prolong the first shot post-Haja scene with a tad second. I think it goes by a little bitt too quick. The rest of the pacing I quite enjoy, and happy to know that it works.

How do you transition back out of the water rescue? I am crazy curious here as I like the direction.

I can upload a video when I soon get back home from the sun. I’ve also explained it in the post up above, in the “Cons” segment.

This is something I put together in the other Kenobi redux thread, just in case it could be relevant to this project in some way:

My god, this is really professional quality, seems exactly like the beginning of a movie. Well done!

Anjohan, in regards to the new rescue clips, the main thing that threw me off was the immediate transition to underwater, are there any other shots you could use to bridge the gap? Even something as simple as Obi walking down an alley or something that could make it seem like he is accessing the sewers

Agreed. I also think that this rescue sequence is much better than the rescue from episode 2 by a mile, and for me at least all the clothes changes is excusable, since it isn’t a big deal after all and it’s for the benefit of better scenes. And this could be nitpicking, but Leia is smiling in the shot right before the lights turn off (maybe another shot of her when she’s panicking could be more appropriate). Additionally, an youtuber fixed an “error” of the moment where Obi-Wan hides from the stormtroopers, maybe this could help:

Cheers, Sirius. I hope you liked the new transition posted up above. I forgot to quote your post the first time.

Also, Leia isn’t smiling? Only when Obi-Wan rescues her.

I am doing slight color correction of certain parts of the series, like Jabiin. Did NOT like the overly orange there. Also, adding more light to EP 6 duel is a good idea.
