I'm a little surprised I didn't get more of a response from my last post...
Was my last clip a little over the top? Too implausable? Too different?
Anyway, I thought I should post another clip to see what everyone thinks.
Setting: Ewok Village.

To start with, I cut out almost every ewok close up in the scene. I left one or two because the scene seemed to call for it. With simply removing those shots, it was already much better. The scene now feels a little more chaotic...
R2 is now released early for 2 reasons:
1) I remember hearing about the radio drama dialogue and liked it.
2) If you didn't already notice, in the original cut, R2 goes from bound to loosed to being bound to being loosed again.
Then I decided to rearrange some shots I felt were out of place.
In my edits, I've been trying to bring Liea's acting up a notch when possible.
While still not great, it now feels a bit more natural...
I've thought about trimming it a bit more...thoughts?
