Yea this definitely would be a shot out to the creature makers, service to the fans…however interpreted. What I plan to do is finish the scenes cut them together and see what works, what is shortened, what does not flow. With cantina if the cuts has music behind them it is a little more interesting. After seeing this video

I was motivated to how close one could make a video version that showed everyone in that bar…hopefully it ends working out and flows well from a timing standpoint. 😃
HEM DAZON from that youtube clip he pops up into frame… It could just be a color issue however he looks pretty black and in every other clip he is a kind of dark red with some highlights… definiyely lacking contour and definition on him.
I think it is a fun idea you have note in that youtube clip also that guy states who he thinks is Greedo Is. I have to say I agree with him. This shot should go just before the conversation about hiring Han then you can pair greedo and han’s audio together so it’s connective tissue. “Nice moves old man” whilst Greedo looks over. Even if you don’t pair that down… that greedo shot only makes sense at that point before the bargaining happens.
Like you said using the shot’s of the Band as the glue to add extra scenes Is a good approach. It seems though that Wolfman sit’s in many places at the same time so that may mean again the shots are in the wrong order especially that first shot is for somewhere else too more than likely. It always seemed that the Band should be the first shot of the sequence then off around the bar that would make cinematic sense.
The Colorization looks good too. Well Done so far…
Oh yeah the laugh we hear on the guy with the horns whom is smiling seems to be for that character he laughs at the bar in the Holiday Special… I would assume that he was the focus of that shot at one point before being swapped to the guy with horns. I don’t see that as a problem just an observation.
I really want to find audio for Luke ordering a drink too.
EDIT
Just a final thought…
Informant guy freaks out at Lightsaber killing at the bar
HEM DAZON is he supposed to be getting up after Luke is flung across the bar because he was knocked over?
He pops up looks down and makes an irkish noise. I have that sound effect isolated in good quality.
Guy with horns has a gun pulled on Obiwan… Obiwan glances over Lightsaber lit “Do you want some as well?”. Guy with horns smiles. Lightsaber extinguished.
If done like this that would make any sight of lopped of limbs or body parts implied rather than shown and considering what is shown it may be better left to the imagination.
I am going to try this out though…One day when I get time.
