And now...Some updates - btw, Now that I'm home again I should be able to get some stuff together pretty soon, Depending on how busy things are @ work.
First up is an idea I’ve been calling ‘angry eye’ Just like anaikin experiences after slaughtering a gaggle of seperatist leaders. Just another way to show off the angry young Jedi he is. I’m thinking it might help Ani’s descent feel a tad more gradual…
These are not specifically shots that would feature said effect…merely shots that worked well for testing purposes.
Here are a few more shots I’ve either corrected errors or tinkered with for my own amusement.
I'm toying with the idea of a cammo style look for some troopers. I don't know how well it would work tho given that these guys were'nt originally stationed in a forest / jungle environment. still tweaking and testing...
And here are a few shots of the opening ‘Test’ crawl I did. I’m not 100% happy with the crawl text so once I manage to work out something I like I’ll get that done.
As you can see I'm toying with the idea of dvd intro style with characters shown within the logo but I'll probably stick with the token yellow outline / black center.
Now my first choice as far as the opening crawl goes is to use some version of the main title music from the films, But I’m also toying with the idea of either just using sound effects ala the original broadcasts openings or using an alternate tune.
The latter 2 both present problems – How can I deliver 1 minute plus of sound without it being distracting or annoying? And what music best reflects the feel of the show?
I’d lean toward the main title music however I’m really not sure what to follow it up with, I need something that is calm yet conveys what is going on. That being the coming attack on Muunilist by the Republic.
Suggestions??
