Here is a comparison of one of our newer Fujicolor ESB prints vs Original Kodak stock we had for the very first print.
Fujicolor is on the top, Kodak on the bottom.
This is a slowed down version of the actual footage, so you can see the difference. We'll post a realtime clip later.

We will be posting a slightly color corrected version also. Actually, there's not that much of a difference when you color correct the original print properly, they match up nicely.

Hello guys, I am new to this forum and recently have been doing a late of research on the original unaltered theatrical versions of Star Wars. I have also downloaded the Puggo Grande trilogy as an MP4 and I have watched it on my iMac’s QuickTime Player. I have enjoyed watching the trilogy however it kind of really upsets me how they’re only in a 480p video quality. I got the idea that I could use sowtware and programs such as iMovie, DaVinci Resolve Studios, etc. to upscale the videos to 4K or even 8K if possible and use the upscales as digital high quality raw print scans to create my own preservation. I own the 2019 digital Blu-Ray version of the trilogy and the 1997 Special Edition Fullscreen VHS tapes that are almost in mint condition. I also plan to by getting a copy of the 1995 VHS tapes boxset. I have been inspired by old post made by Puggo - Jar Jar’s Yoda, team_negative1, Harmy, Laserman, Zion, etc. I plan to make this fan preservation the same quality as, if possible better than, Harmy’s Despecialized Edition. This is a dream come true for me, however in order to do this it’s going to take a lot of money, I estimate $200,000 give or take. First I need to get 12TB iCloud+ since I’m going to be doing this on my iMac. Not to mention expensive of the shelf software. When I finishing the preservation (If I even do it, life is hard) I plan on buying a PC and transferring the preservation there and upscale it again. I plan on starting this project asap. However, I will need a lot of help and money to do this. If anybody has any helpful advice please let me know, thank you. Also if anybody has a new mint condition copy of the 1995 Star Wars VHS tapes boxset, please lot me know.
