You hit it Bingo....

It's a trade off I was expressing what I would like to see... It's very very difficult to overcome the flow of willams score the only times I added anything was in a moment of opportunity in the score It had nothing to do with the footage per say

Although I have added in at the windows of opportunity I have failed miserably at scoring seamlessly from where it stopped and picking back up again.

The only way to do any expansion would be to score a bridge and then time the footage you want to add to the inserted bridge score. This is what I have just learnt from the exercise.

And It's not about ruining the film either... I prefer to believe in finding a way to make things happen and it does not have to be radical...Just having an open mind and I am not planning to edit ESB but I just like to play about and learning along the way.
