very sweet, a nice xmas gift. Thank you for your work!
Original Synopsis:
The first two films need a more cohesive tone to follow suit with the rest, as the tone of the first two movies are quite, quite different from the rest of the series. They resemble innocent fun and a bright, bright world with no worries but pure joy, yet the story is very dark. I wanted to balance this out, although it is important to keep the first two entries lighter in tone.
I found it a crucial step to develop a more gritty and realistic atmosphere to the Sorcerer’s Stone and the Chamber of Secrets, as well as to clean and pace both of them up in terms of picture, sound and storytelling.
The rest of the films will undergo massive changes as well, although less radical in terms of the visual effects work, tone and color grading (2023 onward: this didn’t age so well, haha.)
Goblet of Fire and Half-Blood Prince are also in dire need of work (Goblet of Fire Ultimate Edition now done).
Let’s remaster this magic!
Sorcerers Stone, Chamber of Secrets and all through to Deathly Hallows will have new versions. This is to have more detail in the footage whilst editing, and therefore be able to manipulate both the color grading and the quality to better match the rest of the series in both color and visual tone. Also, the 4k uses the 35mm as the master instead of the DVD upscale that the Blu-Ray is. Therefore, we get the original colors to play with.
The edit are also undergoing massive changes in terms of visual effects, like The Whomping Willow sequence in Chamber of Secrets (which is completed). Goblet of Fire and Half-Blood Prince also have huge narrative changes.

Better color grading, better pace, some musical alterations. Most importantly; even better improvenent on a coherent tone for the film.

Sweet! Where did you manage to find a 35mm print of the film? 😃

The Sorcerers Stone and the Chamber of Secrets (and very soon Half-Blood Prince) have received its V4 editions, which has alterations - but the most crucial part is; I have been using the 4K Sources of the films. In other words, the first two entries look; - AMAZING! Happy holidays, and enjoy the Revisited series like never before! 😃

Hey 😃 Sorry, I’m new on this forum, ran into it yesterday by accident :lol:
Where can I find these versions of the movie? Should I just DM the authors?

Yes. Just DM me for my edits, and own the original film, and you’re all good. 😃

I know this is dumb to ask, but how to DM ? Start a private topic ? Sorry, I’m kinda new to these edit things, only dabbled a little with hal9000’s Star War. I do have the original Harry Potter and I’m hoping to see how can you improve/fix them
Do you have Plex covers for the series?

I couldn’t help but notice you labelled your Deathly Hallows edit as a “workprint” a few days ago, brother. If you’re looking for advice, then as a casual Harry Potter fan, I’ll be happy to give you some. I’ll even rip my own Blu-ray and show you some colour correction examples. 😉

Sorcerer’s Stone and all up to Deathly Hallows (and yes, Deathly Hallows will finally be finished beyond workprint state) is getting new treatments. There are major reasons as to why, most important is:
Work has commenced on CoS, which will be my favourite fanedit alongside Game of Thrones when it’s released. I’ve also taken the new, mostly custom establishing shots and sound mixing to a whole new level. I hope it will be a thrilling experience, in it’s full “Imax” 16:9 release glory.
Approcaches to CoS are:

So, the work on CoS Ultimate Edition is progressing nicely, although the task at hand is monumental.
CHANGES ARE FOR INSTANCE:
-> Most Hogwarts Walls are changed from brown to gray, as in PoA and onwards.
-> The Whomping Willow is no longer in the Hogwarts Courtyard, but in the forests outside of Hogwarts as in PoA and onwards.
-> Tom Riddle Flashback is heavily altered, with new effects and colors to make it seem like a corrupted memory and more in style with what we see in HBP.
-> A ton of new establishing shots, made from ground up. Tons of effects work.
-> A new ending soundtrack (new soundmix).
-> New soundmixes throughout the film (new atmospheres). A lot more sinister atmosphere outside the castle walls (thunder, rain), complimenting the darker look and visual style of the film.
-> Almost all continuity errors are fixed (Whomping Willow, Hagrid’s Hut, Spells different sounds and colors, wall colors, night sky outside windows etc).
And so much more I can hardly remember half. Hoping to release before New Year’s Eve.
Also, all John Williams copy-paste soundtracks from SS/PS are replaced with new John Williams mixes of existing HP score. Like the dark Library Theme from Film I that’s overused. New sound pieces are existing and kept, to let the film have its own identity and musical style.

Revisited vs. Ultimate editions, In turns of quality would you say Ultimate editions will superceed Revisited? 🤔
Yes. Especially visually.
But I also think they work better in all aimed aspects; tone, pace and VFX&SFX work.
Also, there is now a clearer identity and continuity with each following and previous film.

Τhese sound very exciting!
Can’t wait!
COS sounds awesome! Can’t wait!
Wow you are so busy. I cannot wait to view the new versions.
Thank you all for kind and encouraging words. ❤️
It’s rendered without center channel for copyright reasons.
90% done. A few more masking tweaks and not settled on the final shot before we transition to Snape. Also need to finetune some more audio.
Tell me what you feel.

Wow. Just wow.
I am not so sure about the color grading, but maybe once I see it within the film it will make more sense.
Nevertheless, amazing editing skills!
