I apologise for the lack of updates. There's been a lot of issues halting progress on my edit. I've been tinkering sporadically but didn't think an update was justified. I've moved into a house where I have barely any room for my computer, I'm trying to run a business from home (as the economy and job situation are so messed up that the only other alternative would be working in Tesco part time for less money - which I did for a while, but realised I was worse off) so my bedroom also looks like a small warehouse with cardboard boxes stacked to the ceiling.

The entire edit has been quite discouraging overall as it's ultimately an unfixable film without a lot of refilming, but I've stated from the get go that I consider my edit more of a 'proof of concept' than anything else. I hope that when someone more ambitious comes along who's got the support/resources to shoot new scenes, that my edit will be there as a handy reference for what I hope will be considered some great changes.

I'm utilising the voice of an OT.com member for redubbing Anakin and hopefully adding new dialogue, so this should hopefully go a long way towards making this a better film.

I am working with an NTSC DVD source now (previously cut the whole thing on PAL 25FPS) so I'm gradually replicating all my cuts with the new framerate. The reason for doing this is, aside from the annoyance of PAL speedup, I'll now have a framerate in my project that matches the Blu Rays, so if I want to switch to those as a source at some point, I can.
