Absolutely! :-)
I can't remember; what program[s] are you using for video editing?
Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 9. I tried 10 first but I couldn't get it to run on my PC. I started on Womble (back when I first made my "idea" thread) but I found Vegas much easier to work in.
Beyond that I'm using the usual assortment of free programs for ripping, demuxing, converting, remuxing, etc. etc.
Finished Rotoscoping teh Ronto butt thing, and I'll send you a PM fairly soon Frink :)

Very excited to see this!
I haven't altered any of the Phantom Menace footage, I've just cut out the ronto moving across the screen from the SE EpIV DVD. I'm uploading four videos of the same thing, two with a clear background and two with a blue background in case the clear-ness on the other backgrounds didn't work and you need to 'Key' out the backgrounds. The clear ones should work and you should be able to overlay the footage in sony vegas. :l

I tried but it just replaces the TPM footage with the ronto footage, I can't figure out how to make it overlay instead. This may be beyond me.

Oh Homer, you can't shame me into doing something I don't know how to do. :p

Thanks Bob!
I think. ;-)
Unfortunately my edit time has dwindled to zero for the next two weeks, but I'll be coming back to this ronto butt. The video makes it look like something I can handle.
I had a go at making the thing.

I almost fell out of my chair laughing at the *sounds* when Maul approaches them. Nice touch!
I never had the nerve to make the final cut.
Yes!!!
:-)
And I *love* the Maul radio thing, not just the idea but also the way you faded it in and out as the speeder moves past camera.
Cool. I'll PM you it then, will save you having to do all the overlaying and stuff.

Thanks!
I'm just loving the idea of working on the end credits...
Rontobutt sequence by greenpenguino
Based on an original idea by doubleofive
I would love to see the Ronto butt in every crucial shot. Maybe when Qui Gon gets stabbed by Maul.
Nah, I don't want to use that joke more than once. Plus, it's useful to cover up the fact that I don't have any other jokes for the Tatooine fight, but I've got the Qui-Gon death covered. ;-)
^ Maybe it could appear at the end of Episode 3, when obi gives luke away. obscuring the final shot of the film

How about in Ep 5 during "I am your father?"
