Just finished Episode 1: The Pursuit (3 gig).
Excellent job! Everything flows really well. Not once was I taken out of the viewing experience and it never felt like anything was missing. Video quality was also top notch, considering the smaller file-size.
Thanks Blueffalump!
I’m glad you enjoyed it! Those first 3 episodes of Andor needed the most trimming and rearranging, and I’m glad it worked out well!Looking forward to Ep2. 😃
I can’t wait to hear your thoughts on the version I currently have up!
Episode 2 is the one I’m still making changes to. There’s definitely a lot more of it that could be trimmed. I’m just trying to come up with a satisfying way to rearrange the scenes.
By now I’ve also watched Episodes 2 and 3. I found them equally smooth experiences. Top quality!
Personally, I didn’t encounter anything I’d cut from E2 (which is not to say that one couldn’t).The Episode benefits from all the little character moments before the heist, those really made me care, especially when things got tough later on. Even scenes like the Commandant at home with his family seem crucial to me: The latter is in line with the show portraying those who commit evil as leading ordinary lives. It humanizes the Commandant a bit and shows what’s at stake for him. Furthermore it also serves to underline how the rebels commit evil themselves, threatening the life of the ordinary, innocent boy we witnessed earlier. That kid is traumatized for life.
