Changes from V3

  • For all downloads 5.1 Surround sound added
  • Slight improvement to visual quality
  • Smaller file size
  • Updated intro helmet sequence
  • Updated look to introduction text
    • Centred Text
    • Decreased size of Text
  • Rewrote introduction text
  • Replaced old intro with new one
  • Added episode title card
  • recut everything in this episode from scratch again to avoid any previous audio mistakes.
  • cut everything from the first shot looking through the binoculars up until the second shots.
    • This was all exposition that’s covered in my intro text, so it’s doesn’t need to be repeated.
  • cut shot of Ezra saying “Look out blockade!”, Ryder can clearly see past you Ezra… and a blockade is a bit hard to miss.
  • cut the noises Ezra made while the speeder was turning around. They were a bit too goofy.
  • cut Kanan quipping Ryder after he says its good to have them back.
  • cut the first travel shot in the speeder (for flow after cutting the title card)
  • cut the title card
  • cut Ezra making comments on Kallus’ “new” boss.
  • cut Ezra loudly announcing that it’s Thrawn.
  • cut the shots reacting to Thrawn’s speeder demonstration. (I do like this to an extent but it makes it far too obvious far too early Kallus is Fulcrum)
  • cut chopper saying “uh oh” before the fade to black
  • cut fade to black
  • cut next fade to black
  • reworked the second worker ending to make Thrawn execute him instead of escort him away. I don’t understand why he’d kill Sumar and let the other worker, who sabotages a much bigger and more expensive vehicle, live.
    • cut the walker worker being taken away
    • added a SFX of the worker being shot and killed
  • cut Ryder talking with Hera as it was easier then keeping the scene and taking out Sabine. It’s also not needed and keeps the pace of the episode going.
  • cut Kallus saying he saved Sabine at the fighter academy (this was never shown in my edit)
  • reworked previous shots and dialogue to keep flow
  • cut Kallus complaining about being hurt
  • added sound effect of the Imperial hitting the ground to the shot of Kallus talking to better bridge these two scenes.
  • cut Kanan wanting to hurt Kallus, it felt a bit too not Jedi’y for the sake of a joke.
  • completely reworked the scenes back on Attalon to remove Sabine.
    • Used initial establishing shot
      • removed Sabine with by overlaying images on top of her
      • added hologram turning on VFX to better bridge this scene and the next
      • used a different shots sound to get the hologram turning on noise
    • Used footage of Hera looking at the starfighter plans
      • used the original audio “I’ve never seen an Imperial fighter like that”
      • used audio from a later shot “our pilots won’t stand a chance” over second half of the same shot
    • Used shot of Kanan, Ryder and Ezra reacting, replacing with music with the music from the scene where Zeb is talking to Hera saying “Maybe that’s why they’re so secret”
    • Added a wipe from this shot to the shot of Sabine’s artwork being studied by Thrawn.
  • added a eye close effect to bridge episodes and make the eye opening effect from Through Imperial Eyes work better in this format. It also helps convey a minor passage of time and explain the change of environment.
  • cut close up of Kallus after seeing Ezra Bridger (it’s not needed with the title card removed)
  • cut title card
  • cut AP5 saying he can wait for processing
  • cut Kallus being scared about being executed for treason… why would he become Fulcrum if he’s scared of that?
  • cut Lyste exposing that the Grand Admiral has only just arrived on Lothal, for this episode, he’s already here so this doesn’t make the most sense.
    • I’ve cut a few scenes around here, I’ve cut from Lyste praising Kallus getting a confession to just before he says to take the prisoner. All for flow purposes.
  • cut the scene with Rex and Kanan in the Imperial Shuttle
    • The scene if fine but as Kanan was on Lothal with Ezra, it feels weird to see him in hyperspace.
    • The scene also isn’t really needed as AP-5 explains they need the codes to escape the ship when they free Ezra anyway.
  • cut Chopping trying to download clearance codes from a random socket (he should know he can’t do this by now surely…)
  • cut fade to black
  • cut the second scene and Rex and Kanan in hyperspace for the same reasons as the previous. All information contained here in still conveyed in the main storyline at some stage.
  • cut fade to black
  • cut shot of Thrawn in the doorway as we don’t need it without the commercial break
  • cut shot of the shuttle in hyperspace for again, the previous reasons.
  • cut shot of Rex saying “well, here goes nothing” and moved the dialogue to the trimmed next shot
  • Trimmed the shot of the shuttle coming out of hyperspace so they’re just in orbit.
  • cut Kanan and Rex talking about how many ships are in orbit over Lothal, Kanan was just on or was still on Lothal so he should know this already (in my cut at least)
  • Updated the look of the end credit ‘concept art’
    • Added a cracked paint effect to all concept art
    • Added a canvas texture to all concept art
  • Created subtitles
  • Added chapters, subtitles and both title card art options to the video file metadata.
  • created new and old style title card artwork for the renamed episode.

For recolors only:

  • Fixed colors for introduction sequence
  • Fixed colors of end credit sequence

Viewing Notes

Episode is critical for character development, showing off Thrawn’s skill and threat and for setup into the finale of this season.
