[palpy]Come closer, I have good news[/palpy]

So I've got a rough cut together of the entire intro sequence. this is basically 2 pieces. A pre main title intro sequence and the main titles themselves. It's still kind of rough since hardly any of the audio is in and only a few shots have the effects I plan to add. Now I'm preparing to cut these together with all the dvd quality footage [some bits are rough and sketchy] and continue adding in the rest of the sound and the dialogue. The intro part itself runs for about 5 minutes and is kind of effects heavy even tho a LOT of it will probably seem subtle or non existant. So what is it then?...

here be Spoilers

Feeling kind of rushed and out of place later in the series I've brought chapters 6 and 7 to the forefront. Basically it stars with a close up of Asajj on dooku's couch. we hear faint sounds from the ratattak arena and suddenly [thru the magic of transitions] we are there. The main setting is the stuff from chapter 7 fairly unaltered except for effects shots, While the 'meat' of chapter 6 will appear in 3 flash back sequnces throughout. Hopefully the points where I've chosen to cut back and forth work nicely without confusing anyone. At this point I don't really have anything to post yet but hopefully I will soon.

after I've got this at least mostly done, I'll look at focusing on the Muunilist stuff. Since chapters 2 and 3 basically tell storys that run parallel and end with the same event i'll look at cutting and combining those, so we are not retreading the timeline.

I'm not entirely sure if i should pull out chapter 5 - Kitt fisto and slot it later into the story yet. I'm planning to go from chapter 2/3 to 8 then 9 since they cover most of the muunilist story. I may split up the kitt fisto plot line and possibly mace windu and slot them within the main story in small segments. Since they both only really focus on small area and dont really make reference to time that should work well.

I'll see what can be salvaged from chapter 1, I've already got ideas for one scene, but the rest is left out at the moment since the my version of the story begins after that.

At this point I'm pretty happy with the way things start out, I debated whether to go the route of an intro sequence but hopefully it plays out interestingly. I guess time will tell.

Stay tuned and I'll try get something up soon [But no promises]
