Great! Are you planning to finish the extended scene of Django’s death?
Yes, I have plans to finish off that scene. It got put on hold so I could finish my AOTC edit, as well as the AOTC deleted scenes and other projects I’m doing. The scene is around 85% complete; all of the SFX has been finished, a new background plate has been done, plus I rotoscoped Mace and Jango from the deleted scene on the Blu-ray bonus disc, and started on the final VFX.
What is left to do is to animate the leg of the background Super Battle Droid (so it’s not a static image), add in Mace’s Lightsaber, do a colour-correction on Mace and Jango so that they blend in better with the new background plate, plus finish off how Jango dies. I do want to have Jango’s left arm to be sliced off by Mace, however doing that would add a considerable amount of extra work to the scene…It may well be easier to leave his arm unharmed! In order to make the scene different to the original, it would be good to have his arm sliced off though…I’ll see what I can do!
Here is a sample image, showing what I last got up to — the VFX is unfinished, plus no colour correction has been done. This image is not the final version – this is a test image only!
