Star Wars Rebels Recut - A Fanedit TV Series — Page 10

Author

I was skimming the new version of episode 1 and I noticed that during the scene where Ezra finds the lightsaber and Kanan and Hera walk in (starting at 15:32) there are random blaster sound effects. I don’t know if it’s just in that one scene but that’s something you should look into.

Also on my first watch through the series I didn’t use the subtitles but while skimming through this and the other episodes I used them noticed almost every sentence started with “>>”. Just for a test I went into one of the SRT files and removed the “>>” from a few sentences to see if it would effect the the timing but it didn’t. All it did was remove them while playing the video. Those symbols are part of the text and really shouldn’t be there.

Another suggestion I have when it comes to subtitles is instead uploading them as a separate files you should merge them into the video. Using MKVToolNix you could easily merge the SRT and MP4 files to make an MKV file and the timing will still be the same. I it did myself because I prefer having singular files and they worked perfectly fine.

Thanks for all the feedback!!

I’ll definitely look into random blaster shots in episode 1… A bit odd but I’ll see what I’ve done for that to happen 😂😂

In terms of subtitles they should display >> when it detects a new character talking. It seemed a lot for work to remove them all manually so I opted to refine and have it more consistent (though, it might only follow that rule in season 2)

I’ve considered merging the subtitles but while I’m still playing around with the series, for my workflow it’s much easier to have them seperated. I may decide to merge them later on!

RELEASED S01E01 - Spark of Rebellion V4.2

Changes

  • Removed the random blaster sound effects - they were displaced once I added some scenes back in and now that the project is out of stereo sound I no longer need them. (the 5.1 sound has the blaster shots mixed into it’s audio).
  • Further smoothed the audio transition between the Inquisitor and Ezra on the roof.
  • Modified the visual transition between the Inquisitor and Ezra on the roof. Adding extra frames of the eyes, and subtracting some additional frames of Ezra to balance it out more.

Episode could be skipped but has some important character moments for Ezra, good bonding moments for Ezra and Hera and continues the story thread of Senator Gall Trayvis. (Not an overall important story thread but one that’s present through the rest of season 1).

This is Ryan golden as a Palpatine tell me if he was able to perfect it, it wouldn’t be a perfect palpatine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgCqBkMblLE

That is very impressive. It would be interesting to hear him speak original lines (that’s when perfecting a voice becomes really difficult because you have nothing to directly imitate)!

I can’t believe I mix up this and clone wars I meant to post this in the clone wars post. because I would love to see him be chancellor palpatine and sidious replacing Tim curry.

As for the third episode of your season 2 edit (Pirates of the Horn), since I hadn’t watched the original episode, I admit that I was quite confused with what exactly was happening here. After seeing the original version, I really thinks v3 cut a little bit too much from the intro. Starting with Ezra and Chopper fixing the ship (1:48 of the original episode) while seeing the rest of the crew going on their mission would give us more context and a much more valid reason on why is Ezra all of a sudden kind of running away to find his own adventures.

As for the second half of the fifth episode (Princess on Lothal), I felt like it cut WAY too much and made things move WAY too fast. IMO Leia’s little introduction aboard the ship (0:46-2:00 of the original episode) was much needed, otherwise we just have a legacy character randomly popping out at the scenery; also, it’s important in-universe 'cause it shows the Empire is very tired of Alderaan meddling in their affairs, which makes them going after it on EP IV a little more believable. Also Kanan and Ezra talking to Leia before facing off against the stormtroopers (6:05-6:50 of the original) was also quite important, not only to keep the pace a little slower but to give some more background as to how Alderaan and the Senate can keep supporting anti-Empire stuff. And for last, the cut pep talk between Leia and Ezra (10:54-12:19 of the original) was a pretty sweet moment of character development for both of them, I don’t see why leaving it out.
