Mackey256:
Background replacement and making new compositions are difficult tasks to do; you’ve done a fantastic job at restoring these scenes – well done!
Thanks also to GabinDayback for all of the work that has gone into this project!
Just for fun I’m experimenting with a few shots to see if I can improve them. It’s been fun analyzing how this show was put together.
For instance, I’ve been working on cleaning up this speeder shot, as it gets cut off early in the DVD version.

Very few “Next Time” and “Previously” on segments are available online from what I can find. The “Next Time” segments are literally 3 second teasers for the next episode while the “Previously” segments are a bit longer but easy to edit.

I did take a stab at a few missing segments which were replaced by wipes on the DVD Versions.

While neither of these two tests are prefect, they are blink and you’ll miss them changes. Both shots are under 15 frames of content. It would still be nice to have them back at some point.

One more blink and you miss it shot. This is also the result of a wipe being added to the DVD version of this shot.
Like I said, I’ve just been playing around with these in my downtime. I just wanted to share what I’ve been playing with.
