STAR WARS: EP V "REVISITED EDITION"ADYWAN - 12GB 1080p MP4 VERSION AVAILABLE NOW — Page 562

Hey everyone, second post here, long time reader

I just wanted to say something that bugged me about one of your tweaks edit:

During the arrival at dagobah the starfield behind Luke is rotating upwards, indicating that the nose of the x-wing goes up when entering the atmosphere, now this nose-up movement is the one we are accustomed to because of real life examples, when spaceshuttles re-enter the atmosphere

however in the OT-movies the X-Wings and Starships always enter the atmosphere by heading, nose-down to the planet, so the starfield should be rotating downwards - just something i caught when watching the vid

can't wait for Empire Revisited

On Ady's facebook page, I read most of his changes.  Are those going to be all the changes or are we in for some surprise changes that he didn't tell us about?

He ll keep some surprizes for the end

 

-Angel

What is that supposed to mean? 

Good, that's what I thought.  Now I'm extremely curious. :)

Anybody have any predictions?

It sounds like you know what they are. 

Ady I was watching Empire a few nights ago and noticed how bad the Wampa looked when it turned and screamed after Luke cut it's arm off. The jaw just drops open very puppet like. I'm not sure if you're even going to be keeping this shot because I know you're going for more of the original scary feel that the GOUT Empire had, but if you do decide to keep it in could you do what you did to some of the Cantina Aliens and give it more life some how?

Yours,

Both awesome ideas! The second pic is a must, though.

Oh, I'm almost certain that Ady fixed the second pic, the first pic is more of a preference.

Haven't posted in a while, but I've been following the thread an there are some great ideas. I really can't wait to see TESB: R ! :)

vaderios, that shot of the star destroyer's "underbelly" and the Executor is amazing! I really love the mood, excellent lighting and additional detail. If by any chance you're going to make a compilation of best "mock-ups", add this one with a high-rez! I really hope adywan can include it in the Revisited edit.

Some great new things revealed in those recent 'facebook' preview shots!   It's neat to see that Adywan has actually moved Luke's legs closer together so they now tie-in with the position of his 'iced-up' feet.

And I'm also really pleased to see that the lightsaber hilt is going to be buried in a more consistent way during the scene's various shots of it than it currently is!

While minor, these were always annoying 'continuity issues' until now.

And having Yoda (and his blue sack beside him) actually positioned ON the log now immediately after getting off Luke's back, is another terrific fix.  No adding or removing of any shots in that sequence needed after all then!  Perfect.  :)  

The ice cave looks a little bleached out for my eyes, it's nice to have the snow no longer purple or blue but some of the darkness of the cave seems to be lost.

Look at the sides of the cave entrance for example.

This is rough because the images don't exactly match (so ignore the legs and the saber obviously) but I tried over laying some of the lower contrast/higher detail information of the GOUT version over the ESB: R version.

It's darker but you get some of the detail back :

vaderios, this is a very nice touch you've shown here.

However, in the 'longshot' that comes immediately before this shot, it looks like Vader's first swipe at Luke as he comes out of this doorway is outwards , and his blade seems to hit roughly where the 'narrow gap' in the railing is seen.  Vader then takes another swipe at Luke (who ducks), and that seems to be only time the blade hits the doorway exterior.

So I really hope that Adywan considers adding a 'burn/singe mark' to this shot, roughly where you've placed your top one, and perhaps adds something to the railing too.

He will be adding scorch marks on the walls in the duel.  He said so in his ESB R change list. 

Bingo, I never realized the cave effect was missing, but now that you pointed it out, I prefer your picture better.  It feels like he is in a cave now.

it's nice to have the snow no longer purple or blue

Here's my beef - daylight is blue. Without direct sunlight, snow/ice (and anything else that is otherwise white) looks blue (so shadows on snow should be blue). Unless Ady's taking the GOUT colours as gospel, that bottom shot just looks too much like a set. Mix the top two shots together and you have something approaching nice, IMO.

Ady: something you may want to keep in mind with this scene: the light source seems to be on the far right, going by the lighting and shadows on the Executor and its escort.  If that is the case, the underside of Needa's SD should be pretty dark, as opposed to brightly lit, which would suggest a light source underneath.

Let me think about it....

Very quick try this:

-Angel

And this was another nicely done mock-up vaderios.

That was a good call by Monroville on the underside lighting of the overhead Stardestroyer.  I really think that darkening the underside of the Stardestroyer here would look better, as you've shown in your example....even if the 'lights' can't be done.

I'm not sure where your shuttle was coming out from, but am curious to see if Adywan's one eventually exits from the smaller opening nearer the front of the Stardestroyer (as it does in ROTJ), or if it comes out of the bigger opening as Needa's current shuttle does.

 Yes, but I'm hoping it will be a single one for the reasons I've given.
