You might be confused. This project is NOT a re-edit of EP1.
Johnny Ringo gets it
For the frantic and nervous...
Since yesterday, I am officially in "pause" mode while I await some HD footage; but we're only talking a few days if the SEEDERS WILL SEED.
I have roughly 36 mins of solid footage produced; and much of this appeared in the early screener for Part 1. Since then I have revised some of the transitions and the overlay text that appears during the first time arc change--based on early comments and suggestions.
I am now well into Part 2. Please note that a 'part' change does not imply that I have finished one of the episodes; it signifies that I have started editing footage from a different DVD. For example, I first worked with the EP3 DVD to create the opening 22 mins of the new movie. Now I am working with the EP1 DVD, but I will later return to the EP3 DVD when the time arcs are completed.
I will prepare screeners of select footage when I am satisfied that there will be little or no further changes to the edits. The next clip will include the rotoscoping.
As I indicated before, this phase of the project is slower because Jarjar is tagging along with the principal characters. The project will slow down even more when I begin developing the Tatooine sequences, because then I will be dealing with Jarjar AND Anakinda-gets-on-my-nerves-Skywalker.
