"Uh, my team's ready. I don't have a command
crew for the shuttle."

 

:D 

EDIT:

I just got the idea how to make this little set a bit more interesting.

How about make it a big energy room that goes to infinity and have slow lightning goes up and down connecting the two sides of the wall?

Ideas from here just slower. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dl7FCzxSgY Something like ROTJ generator but more impressive.

Smokes/steam can be pulled out from the things that are like holes and air shafts. (see invisible hand)

More to what i mean is when Neo wakes to the real world and watches the city below him. That kind of electricity im refering. i will try to make it as mockup :)

This episode here have some nice sound effects even with poor quality :/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_frD6bGp63U&feature=related

Actually I think his idea is sound, not the shopping part obviously but the amount of people down there does look visually interesting and has potential

And I lol'd.  What's wrong with a joke now and then?

From that distance you can even tell it's a shopping mall (there could be anything in those bags) though it might be more a thing you could get away with on Bespin where presumably they would have shopping centers.

The people George added to ESB:SE seemed to be wearing fashions you could get away with in a mall.

Even the guards uniforms could pass for some of the outfits the security bods are forced to wear.

Shooting at a mall (though I get and appreciate the joke) could under some circumstances be a legitimate source of background elements.

Thanks guys, I'm glad we're not losing humour quite yet, although the whole OOT situation isn't funny any more :-)

Made a few mock ups of what I'm trying to do with the begining part of ANH...  I'm actually doing it, but since I've no idea of After effects, I'm doing it frame by frame, which suppose a heavy and boring work so I can't tell if this modification will ever be finished.

The first thing is to change the foreground when Leia is recordind his SOS message to Obi wan... never liked those tanks...

I'm speaking of these shot http://img153.imageshack.us/i/0000419.jpg/ .

I took this one http://img205.imageshack.us/i/edcorridorst7ge9.jpg/ and this one http://img837.imageshack.us/i/0000002g.jpg/, and made this hybrid http://img178.imageshack.us/i/tanbtiveleia.jpg/ ... and I'm trying to do kinda this http://img525.imageshack.us/i/mockad.jpg/.

Another thing I'm trying to do, is (still aboard the Tantive) when Vader is speakin with two imperial officers, one of them is standing in front of a door, which leads to a dark room full of blinkin lights.. well, I think I'm gonna try to replace that room for another normal white corridor of the ship

ANH should be treaten like THX and even more radical..

http://movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=541751

 

Look all these wonderful changes and enhancements. The boring walls the empty limited spaces and the close shots were opened up where new shots added to brake the limitations back then.

If we go with the reshooting entire shots then some very boring shots can be replaced for sure!

Its amazing actually with some good rotoscoping can you achieve!

Trying to eliminate the hard 70s shadows when and if possible. This requires mostly BG roto on a clean or altered plate.

This is ridiculus if you consider that THX 1138 had lot of better light dep...

Generally speaking im trying to eliminate every centered shot by either re-cropping or moving the elements to an other place or extend the shot.

This shot for example has the same camera angle but the lighting changes in all shots.. trying to uniforming it.

And some new dunes to bother with :)

Stunt is different from force lightning. Also replaced for poor compositing reasons. Added interactive lightning with the rocks :)

these look awesome angel! i really like how clear tatooine looks now. only critisism would be the second tatooine shot has a dune above the droids that cuts through a bit harshly.

one day you will do motion.....

Funny you mention the cut because there is no cut :P

The image has that cut from itself.

 

I might use an other angle :)

 

Other news:

Added more sunrise light and mood to make the colors and tones poping up and in the next shot the sun is way to high to be in that mood. If you notice tho in the unaltered pic there is a spot of blue sky that is wrong since in the establishing shot its dark orange.

Uncentered shot and played with the tones.

Gave to that shot a bit more logica layout to the buttons that were a mess and tried to make an "asymmetrical symmetry"

Star wars is full of centered shots.

Dude! I love these! Seriously! Fudging awesome! I could literally have sex with these images. It's just mind blowing to even imagine how something like this would look in motion. Great work, man! Inspiring stuff...

Nope.  I refuse to believe that you weren't serious.

People that joke around on this forum should be ashamed of themselves.*

I was mucking about with the Death Star's lift door shot...but I diverted to when the gang arrive in the detention block...and added some blood spatters....like suggested a while ago....

...also I dont know if it has been mentioned before but is the 'Where are you taking that thing?' guy the same actor when he gets shot?

vaderios I see you've been busy. Very cool images. Especially the R2 ones. I never thought of modifying the electricity in that shot.

 

Awesome.
