Interesting idea. Depends on the quality of the capture I guess. I dunno I'm starting to get the hang of doing this by hand. I practiced with getting rid of that purple hue to The Phantom Menace, and I'm just adjusting ANH as I go along, using GOUT Histo as a boost, I suppose.

Hopefully a selectable crawl. I'd ask Rebel_1138 to help me make one, but I flaked out on an edit he helped me with awhile ago so he'd prolly not do it (feels bad).

Well I won't start a whole new thread for ANH till it's actually kinda done. I'm just starting, but my HD source looks pretty good.


So the typeface isn't exactly like the original...so what? Adjust the color back to what it was in '77 and it still feels like Star Wars.

This is what a white Tantive looks like when it's sourced from HD.

The 2004 DVDs had a gray overcast digitally overlayed in this shot to match surrounding shots. This is my first matte . OCP is giving me his blessing in stealing his excellently done mattes, but he missed a couple shots. It's lucky I can pull these off.

Of course they changed the sky in this shot from an anachronistic red to blue matching the other shots. Well I need to blend this a little better, but I got it back to red
