Cheers! Glad you enjoyed it! The next episode (which will hopefully drop next week) is gonna cover the Utapau Duel. Here’s a sneak peak of how it might end: http://youtube.com/post/UgkxU3KJT7SZw0XqkPEB-KIVz1RoNZRfdNIV?si=RXnbrLi32x3JDZmP

i think it look a little abrupt, maybe have the way that the original was without kenobi shooting 2 times

idk

The probe droid is something I had hoped someone would do. I couldn’t convince Adywan. I think it works well. Obviously the music cue would need to change.

Wow, very niche and interesting. Love it so far.

I know I’ve made some very poor decisions recently.

Honestly just the restructuring alone of AotC to be more in line with ESB’s act structure is amazing. Wouldn’t mind seeing this in the updated/canon TAS edit of yours, Hal 😉

It wouldn’t work very well for the order of sequences that I use. But if I was just making that tweak to vanilla AOTC it’d be no problem.

Yeah, it’s supposed to be a abrupt to mirror it’s sister scene in IV where Han kills Greedo. It’s a little less abrupt in the context of how the whole scene has been recut, but I’ll go back over that section before I finish the next episode and see if adding a few more frames will smooth it out a little. Cheers for the feedback!

That wasn’t my original idea! It seems like I failed to make a proper note about it. I can’t for the life of me find or remember the guy’s name, but it was a user here whose screen name started with ‘Aa.’ Maybe someone reading this does remember and can point him out.

But thank you! This’ll be a treat to follow.

No way! Well, if you happen to remember the guy’s name shoot me a message, I’d love to give them credit!

Glad you’re enjoying it!

Amazing videos! I honestly love this breakdown on your approach to editing, the vocabulary used showing WHY cuts can be made.

We will watch your career with great interest.

Cheers! That’s actually why I decided to do the series. I couldn’t find any good practical tutorials that explain the thinking process film editors use make cuts and shape sequences. I had some phenomenal teachers in Film School and professionally, so I thought I’d pass on a bit of what they taught me/I learned the hard way. Once you know how to think about what you’re thinking about, the rest is just fighting a losing battle against Adobe Premiere. . .

Really excellent! Easy subscribe. The thought processes are fascinating. Are you intending to release full movies, or if not, I’m sure this community would love access to your raw scene outputs!

No and Yes, haha! I’m not planning on releasing the full edits, but once I finish the YouTube series all of my major changes should be documented (I altered roughly 80% of all the scenes in George’s 6 films). If you see something you like, feel free to send me a PM, and I’ll shoot you a render of a particular scene when I have time.

Also if you or anybody else has a question on how I fixed a certain scene or sequence that I haven’t yet covered in the YouTube series for your own re-edits, feel free to send me a PM, and I’ll see if I can help.

Yeah, I take copyright pretty seriously. I don’t want the full edits out there for anybody to watch if they don’t own copies of the originals. Policing who does and who doesn’t could quickly become a full time job that I have no interest in, lol!

But with that being said, if you or anyone else has a question about how I recut an individual scene or sequence, PM me, and I’ll send you a render of the section in question.

Also, if you see a clip you like on my YouTube Channel and want a clean render without my color grade to insert into you’re own edits, I’m happy to do that as well.

Cheers!

End of next week at the latest. I was hoping for this week, but it’s a double episode so it’s taking a bit longer than the first two. (In order to make the Utapau Duel work, we’re gonna have to rewrite all of Episode 3, haha!) My aim is to release an episode every 1-3 weeks depending on the length.
