ESB-X (the eXtended version) (WIP)

Some of you are probably familiar with my ANH-X that is a WIP:

https://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Star-Wars-ANH-X-the-eXtended-version-WIP/id/89934

but truth be told, I have rough draft on the editing software timeline for Jedi and Empire. Depending if I need a switch and my mood I often hop around (focus still on ANH). Since the plan is to use the finished HD version of Adywans as a base, Empire might actually have a chance to have a release earlier than the other 2. Below is a link to the the shotlist ESB-X for those interested.

I am curious as to your plans to incorporate the radio drama scenes into ESB , especially the scene of Han and Luke in the tent and the opening scene . Do you have footage in mind for this or plan to shoot some of your own ?

This will be a fresh shoot since we have a full han hoth outfit and most of luke hoth, thinking alot of over the shoulder shot but will do some face ons. Plan to use deep fake or simular. We have Hamil for the voice acting here obviously and some lines from Harrison, but will need to do some audio work on solo and get and some lines for him as perry is good but not Harrison 😃 and deep fake audio for the lines if not happy with results. There are actually some talented people out there on fivr doing Solo lines so will have to see. But yea, will have to be shot in winter so probably one of the later scenes to be honest since it is spring in my location now.If this scene does not happen it’s not the end of the world as it is not a crucial scene…although does have some good lines

Any plans on using the extended bounty hunters scene? I’ve seen around here this scene in some project. It has a better view at Dengar.

I just downloaded that tonight in a good quality and yes I plan to use it. Actually Dengar looks pretty stiff in that clip 😃

Shot list for this edit…Working on the Indy series at the moment and will probably focus on that till year end, but I do often jump back into starwars and finish a few scenes. Checked ones in the PDF are complete, but most are started and already edited on the timeline. Figured I would share this out for those interested in how this one is coming along.

I’ve just read your shot list; I was wondering, do you think you might use the deleted scene of General Veers’ AT-AT being destroyed? There is grey, black & white footage of him and the two drivers in the cockpit about to be rammed head-on by a speeder.

Originally had not decided to include due to the scene having so much cartoon/storyboard drawing pieces to it. Colorization has come along way and I do have some very nice practical models of the snow speeders, so maybe I will take another consideration, would probably be in a final V3 though.

As the 44 year Anniversary of Empire Strikes Back comes to a close, I figured I should give an update on this project. I am happy to say it is moving along and despite losing a lot of work from a harddrive and PC failure, I have recovered all and even ran into some new additional scenes plus improvements on the prior work along the way due to technology improving in the last year.

Below link is the updated shot list and status of where this is at. Was kind of hoping for Version 1 to be ready by now…but soon.

Many thanks goes out to Benduwan who helped me recover a tremendous amount of clips that I probably would have not had the ambition to go hunt for all over again or at least this all would have taken way longer.

Cheers

It sounds like all you just need is all but center channel extracted if you want to PM me the links to the German and English clip, I can do that for you.

Thanks for your offer.
Will send it to you in the next days.
Thanks you very much.

Finally! 😃😃😃
I think it will be useful

PS: Ugh, this is probably not for here, but never mind 😁

I like it…I restored that audio a while back, but never mixed it in…But that scene is in my ANH shot list. The guy did a nice job restoring to the visuals
