I’m not sure what you mean by the re-appearing Star Wars logo. I’ve looked through it and the logo fades out and then I can’t see any trace of it after that. What exactly are you referring to? Maybe it was an issue with the encoding?
At about 42 seconds in, just as the the first pixels of “A New Hope” begin to appear, the Star Wars logo returns (just as those starts in the center of the screen are awkwardly fading out - if you’re fixing those then I guess the logo will be fixed in the process).
Ok I figured out what you were talking about. Oddly it was still there even after fixing the stars. I ended up clicking through all the layers one by one to figure out where it was coming from. I figured out it was from the 97 crawl. The mask I used to remove the 97 SW logo was off for about two frames before ANH comes into view, so what you were seeing was the very bottom of the SW logo peeking through the mask. I fixed the mask and you can’t see it anymore.
I also believe I came up with a solution to the static grain. It looks good in the After Effects preview, but I’ll see how it looks when it’s all rendered out.
I’m on vacation with my family right now, so I apologize if it takes a bit longer than it normally would.
