Hey Adywan!

 

Quick question. Why was the spiraling star field effect removed when the Falcon goes into Hyperdrive? I always thought it was a nice transition piece for the ship since warp tunnel they're in spirals as well (At least more obviously in Return of the Jedi).

 

It also from my perspective dulls the sequence of the Falcon escaping Tatooine a bit, especially in your cut. You have the Falcon making a much faster and more exciting exit, spinning around in circles avoiding enemy fire and than you just have it shrink in the distance. It looks more like an image of the Falcon being zoomed out with a star field in front of it rather than speeding it's way forward. Not saying you should show it at a different angle, but the spinning star field gave the effect a more exciting feel to it. Now there are exceptions to this like having multiple ships go into warp like in Jedi, but that's ok. We all cheat. :)
