For some reason, I was convinced it was from the trench run music, but I can't for the life of me find the bugger!
I'm glad the arena scene is on the right track. When you have time, I'd be grateful for any suggestions/criticisms. I'm aware that some minor things still need sorting (such as Padme's apparently indestructable coccyx) and the sound, obviously, which will be quite time consuming.
I've found a few fanfilm pages that suggest that the jedi knight and phantom menace games are good sources for extracting clean sound effects, however judging by the age of the games, I'm guessing this advice is somewhat dated. I'm sure someone out there will have already done all the legwork and assembled a complete, high quality library of sounds. I just need to find the right one. Any help is appreciated.
I'm also wondering what people think of one of my favourite cuts. When Padme swings down to knock the Nexu off the pole. I've trimmed lots of it where she frankly took an implausible amount of time to descend and in the close up shot it actually looked like she was just running along the ground while swaying slowly back and forth. It's more sudden now. More jarring to those who are used to the (fake) way it was before, but I think it works. Feel free to correct me if you disagree. I won't be offended. :)
