Progress report:

I've cut about 22 minutes of my movie so far... I like what it's looking like at the moment, but I have yet to go from prequel to classic trilogy footage yet. I'm still concerned the music won't blend well... But we'll see.

As it stands, it really begins like Anti's Prologue as I've said before, but I did go ahead and splice things a little differently. You will not see Vader until he boards the Tantive IV, but you hear A LOT of talk of Vader before then. You're also clueless that Darth is a Sith title and not just this Obi-Wan's Apprentice's name... Which really aids Obi-Wan's talk with Luke.

I'll also be dabbling with uprezzing software to MAYBE produce new unique shots to give it a fresh look. Especially when Lucas needlessly has his massive wide shots. This is also evident in the ep. 4 so this is not just a problem with me in  the prequels. Of course if it looks like crap, I'll scrap the uprezz and leave it as it is framed. Oh, and I'll be applying a new plug in called Neat Video that I bought a few months ago... It's the greates grain remover out there, and it actually adds good detail to the shot. I may apply this to the Classic footage to help clean it up to help match it up even more with prequel shots.

Ok, that's all I'm saying at this point. And I will not spoil ALL my surprises to you fine feathered folk...

I'll have more, when I have more.
