Impressive! Most impressive. I was a little worried about how the colour correction would fair in the carbon freezing chamber (as i think the SEs dare i say, look really good at that point in the movie - excluding the sabres of course). Looks like you can improve on that look aswell, so im confident its all in good hands.
Just like to add, although its at a very, very early stage, its already looking the best Empire has ever looked (even from downscaled grabs), so congratulations are in order. Thanks for sharing that with us Ady.
