A first rough test of some concepts for Luke's view of the pursuit...
It's rough as hell. No animated laser blasts yet. The matte on the binoculars is a bit wonky. It needs extra info overlays and crosshairs etc. Plus I'll pan and zoom the shot around as if Luke is focusing in on the action. I might even try going in and out of focus.
Thoughts?
I would suggest that only the Star destroyer would be visible and much smaller with less movement. The main movement should be from the binoculars natural shaking movement.
The mystery could perhaps be what is that ship shooting at? But even with the Binoculars it's hard to see what is going on...
Not sure about your footage order of scenes but anyway that is what I think would work better.
I like the idea.
By the way the footage of the POV terrain shot in the Landspeeder whilst searching for R2-D2 is not a POV shot.
It's meant to be for the scanner on the landspeeder and is meant to directly preceed Luke announcing he found R2 on the scanner to C3PO. So it was meant to be an element similar to the Sand people binocular shot.
The Terrain is meant to be Blue in color with red display overlays
