Ady,

Maybe it's just my monitor, but on the split-screen clip of the Dagobah approach, at about 0:16-0:17 R2's pannels appear to be black.  The pannels are blue in the two or three other shots in the clip.

In the dagobah clip posted a few pages earlier, I thought Artoo looked a little monochrome. Not enough blue to him.

R2's panels are definately blue. If i made them more blue, which they don't need to be, then they would start looking as fake as they do in the SE.

& Ady  I thought you were going to change the all the helmet logos to red  why is dack's still blue

No, that was in ANH only. In ANH they were red squadron but in  ESB they are rougue squadron so no need to change them to red

I agree with the above poster that the AT-ATs need to be spread out a little more on 0:59.  Maybe have the front 2 or 3 AT-ATs shoot in the first volley shot (right after the binoc reveal).  It also looks like the AT-AT on the furthest left doesn't move (looks like it is sitting still)  As a suggestion, you could create 2 "V" patterns of 5 AT-ATs to suggest a formation as opposed to a random group.

And I really wish you would reconsider taking out the red windows.  It would have been really cool to see all of those AT-ATs with the red windows (especially in the close-up head shots; we could have seen Veers and co. inside).  It would really help take away the "modelly" look.

I would also have the snowspeeders from 0:49 to 0:58 go forward and up as opposed to just forward so it doesn't look like they are on tracks.  Also check out 0:22; is that large boxey area underneath Luke's snowspeeder supposed to be there (or is that there for the crane that was lifting the mock-up)?

Notice that the boxey area underneath Luke's SS goes all the way down to the bottom of the wings.  If you watch the fly-over at 1:08 the bottoms are relatively flat.

Also, should there be an extra SS on the right at 1:11 to 1:12?  Everything seems to be bunched to the left of the screen.

ok, i am having to use existing footage of the AT-ATs to add the numbers. Due to their angles spreading them out further starts to look odd as the perspective is thrown out. i may be able to tweak it slightly but not by much.

Also the snowspeeder set piece has that box underneath because that is what the forklift was attached to to make them rise. There is nothing i can do about that

The snowspeeders are all coming from the same direction as they have just come out of the hangar so they would all be coming from the left as they are in formation.

Adding red windows to the AT-Ats would mean that i would have to tint the insides red and fake lighting looks just that.. fake, and i am not prepared to do that, especially when it doesn't need to be done.

Tinting dagobahs atmosphere green is not going to happen. If i were to do something like that then that would mean that all the fog and clouds on dagobah should also be green tinted. Clouds are white and dagobah is covered with them. We see a quick shot of the planet then luke straight away says "yeh, that's it. Dagobah" . So we know which planet it is. I never had a problem with knowing which planet is which for the past 28 years so i see no reason to change them now. Some things just don't need explanation. Thats one of the major problems with the PT. everything seems to get a huge explanation as if the story talks down to the audience because they might be too thick to know what's going on.

 

One thing you have to remember is that i am not a miracle worker. I can only work with what footage i have available. making the speeders move any differently in the hangar is almost impossible because of other elements in the shot. Removing the box from underneath Lukes speeder is also impossible. as it lifts there is a trooper guiding the speeder out. If i remove the box then he would have no head and no way of replacing it
