Yeh, there does seem to be a lot of those happening recently. maybe i'm just paranoid too.
Some good news, Luckily i have been able to load the new render of the main video into vegas and been able to recover most of the final colour scorrection. About 25% though has to be done from scratch because these parts were done earlier, but at least this is going to save me a lot of time. All colour corrected scenes up to the opening desert scenes were lost so i have to redo those and a couple of effect shots that had been rendered into the final colour correction were also lost. Luckily i still have the templates so should be able to redo those with ease, apart from the opening crawl and stardestroyer/Tantive shots, which were one of the first i ever did. Those templates have long gone so, un;less i can find the original footage in one of my backups, i will have to redo those too.
But isn't that what this whole project is about? It's not part of the landspeeder that looks like a battery, it's an actual car battery that is not part of the landspeeder design, and is not supposed to be there. Certainly, not supposed to be noticed by people who just can't let go of a 30 year old film.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't think that production design based on a limited budget should necessarily be regarded as something that needs to be changed.

I've had a look at this shot and i think its going to be too tricky for me to fix. Don't forget i'm a newbie to FX work so i'm still in the learning process as i progress through this film. This will be something that i will try to fix at a very later stage so if it doesn't work then i won't have spent a lot of time that could have been spent on more important things.
