I am looking forward to seeing the emperor hologram now that it has been a year since we first saw it with ANH:R. I want to see the side view of that scene.
I know this has been brought up (and Ady, if you made a decision, a simple confirmation will do and I will start re-updating the ESB:R list), but didn't someone suggest making Ozzel and Harriet... uh, Piett a hologram as opposed to be onscreen (ala their holograms are being projected by the same unit the Emperor hails from)?
yeh i remember this idea but i will be keeping it as a viewscreen

I just happened across this image on the great meditation chamber debate, it might be fiddleaboutable, It's Veers waiting to see Vader (must be a deleted scene) :

cool find. Totally impossible to create a scene from a still though, especially one that is black & white and such low res. i don't think an extra shot really needs to be added anyway

Something that CAN fixed. Obvious he is not David. Armor and mask floating...

Even when he rotates there is a previous shot that can be used reversed.

Are the ones on the right your fixes? If so, they're fantastic - I've always thought the ones on the left looked a little ... off.
what's throwing this scene off is the fact that the helmet is underneath the chest plate armour for some reason. i'm going to leave it as it is though. It looks to me more that Vader had to quickly replace the helmet when Piette entered and that the suit isn't on correctly. Not only that but changing the helmet in a shot where he spins around in the chair probably couldn't be pulled off

TESB is unique in that all the imperial officers are wearing perfect rank badges and cylinders. For one who is into these things, its very easy to determine the ranks of for instance Piett, Ozzel or Veers by mearly looking at their rank badges. By comparison ANH's rank system is terribly vague, with officers wearing a confusing mixture of red, blue and yellow. And let's not even talk about the mess in ROTJ, were virtually everyone seems to have the same rank!
There is one officer that is wrong, though, and it seems like a shame when everyone else are perfect. He appears briefly as an extra without lines in Vader's first scene. As Ozzel and Piett are argueing and Vader is making his way over to join them, the camera pans down to the trench and an officer standing looking up at Vader. He is wearing the rank insignia of a navy captain, even though Piett is captain of the ship at that time. However, if another cylinder is added to his other cheast pocket, he becomes a commander instead, which would clear it all up.
I have mentioned this earlier some time ago, so forgive me ady if you've already addressed this, but I wanted to make sure it hadn't been forgotten in the ocean of posts here.
i won't be doing anything to the rank pins in ESB:R. this type of thing has never bothered me

Why shorten the Wampa scene?
HotRod said:
Cos it's shit!!
Why is it shit? The SE version is better than the original version.
Each to their own! As was said, its Adys edit. Thats like some models saying that they dont like to show their boobs as its better to leave it to the imagination but Id rather see the boobs. Just like here (no I dont wanna c the wampas boobs), Id prefer to see the wampa. If you were there, wouldnt it be scary seeing the wampa come after you? (Not if you're a future Jedi!)

Yes but weve seen what the Wampa looks like for years, kinda hard to put the cat back in the bag. I don't mind shortening the scene a bit, but to expect me or most people to forget all memory of what I saw hundreds of time is ridiculous
SE version better than the original? are you serious? All the added wampa footage takes away what should be the main focus of the scene... Luke. It originally focused solely on Luke with brief glimpses of the wampa approaching. The tension was built as Luke regained consciousness and began his escape just as the wampa reaches him. Now in the SE version the focus is shifted towards the Wampa. It takes away the whole mystery when the wampa is full on in your face throughout the scene.It has nothing to do with the fact that we have now seen the wampa so the mystery is gone at all. Plus it will eb a new Wampa in this movie anyway. lol
And Dangerous Incorporated can you please change your sig pic. Its way too big for the forum and its getting confusing when scrolling through for the mock-ups

Well this took me a while... working 1080p is fun :P
We can see the establishing shot that a X-wing is landed an R2 unit aproach the door and next shot luke its inside the building and R2 enters from behind.
-Angel
again interesting but this would be an unnecessary addition

hey adywan, was curious how things were going...
Things are going ok at the moment. the shots i'm working on at the moment are taking up a lot of my time. they are just brief shots but each one is taking about 3 days solid to complete.
i've just changed the comparison pics on the first page because some of the shots have now changed. plus i added a couple more
