I just finished the first chapter and my favorite part by far to that edit is the new flashback insertion throughout from the pram in the trash to the final standoff between the Mandolorian forces and the bounty hunter guild on Nevarro!The contrast between Din’s introduction to Mandalorian culture and Grogu’s was perfection. The edit seemed seamless upon first viewing and I cannot wait to watch the revised episode II now. Keep up the great work and may the force be with you…always!

Thanks! So glad to hear all that. Looking forward to seeing what you thought of Book 2!

Just wondering, Moff Giedon’s appearance is slightly different in the latest episode of The Mandalorian with him no longer having a moutache. I know it is minor, but are you going to be able to do some digital trickery to account for his change from season one and two to season three if you plan to insert it into Book 3?

I do indeed utilize “digital trickery”!

So the two main differences in Gideon’s Season 2–>3 appearances are:

  1. The lack of a mustache
  2. Some greying in the hair

My solution:

  1. Digitally remove his mustache in all my other Book 3 scenes.
  2. Alter the lighting of the Shadow Council scene to keep his hair looking darker.

Yes, Gideon will again have a mustache in Book 4. But as these films take place across weeks-months, I see no problem in Gideon growing facial hair occasionally. It’s a pretty thin and stubbly mustache anyways that could easily be grown in a few days by many men. It was only jarring seeing it in the same movie, but across movies, I don’t think is an issue. And we could even theorize he only shaves to look professional for his Shadow Council meetings anyways.
