Yes.

I love that part where he jumps.
Up until that fight with Luke in ESB, a viewer gets the idea that Vader isn't capable of moving too fast or doing anything flashy. He really lets loose during that duel. Awesome stuff.

Vaderios, there are whole websites devoted to that sort of thing.
I think that unless someone comes up with something specifically ESB:R related that needs to be said it might be an idea to just rest this thread for a while.
I'm sure Adywan will re-awaken it when he has a major announcement to make but unless our imaginations scream otherwise I sense our work is finished here my friends.
Young Adywan has more than enough to go on at the moment and we may be of more help to him making suggestions for his future projects.

Sorry i haven't been around guys but i decided to crack on with ESB:R. I've got quite a bit done but with some of the things i want to do i'm hitting a major obstacle: equipment. Namely a decent HD camcorder. There are shots that i just cannot accomplish without filming new elements. The asteroid sequence where the TIEs collide, the inside view of the slugs mouth to name but 2. i have tried filming some new elements with a SD camcorder (tried a few different one thanks to a few mates) but the quality is shocking and doesn't fit in with the existing footage in any way.
And here is the main reason:
I was hoping to keep this a secret and unleash the news once ESB:R is finished but now you'll see why i need a HD camcorder to get this baby done....... ESB:R will be in 720p AVCHD alongside the standard DVD versions. There was no possible way that i could do it in 1080p but 720p is viable and everything i have done so far has actually been in 720p.
I've been checking out some HD camcorders and most seem to be 1080i (most being 1440 x 1080i) but i have found some that are actually a bit cheaper that are full 1920 x 1080p. i can manage to scrape up about half the cost but i'm still about £200 short so i'm going to have to open up the donations once again. I really do need your help here guys. the cost of the materials for the models and new set pieces is costing me a fortune, but i ahve that covered. all i need is to get a decent camcorder to get the elements on film. It is also going to be invaluable when i get to the rest of the Revisited saga for new model shots etc. any help will be greatly appreciated. My paypal email address is in my sig.
now onto what i have been working on.
i really like the slug idea of having the teeth hidden and start to protrude as the mouth begins to close. this would require a new model shot to accomplish this but the original inside model had no tongue and it looked so fake. this way i can make it look more like a cave. the teeth will remain the same and so will the slug puppet. i have always liked the design of the slug and really don't want to change this. i have just completed the escape sequence apart from the inside shots which need changing. i have slowed the slug down slightly and, to me, it looks more realistic now. so here's is a very short clip of the new sequence.
Now i have hell of a lot of reading to do to catch up so i'll try to reply to all these as soon as i can

Nice to see you back Adywan and I hope our various comments and observations have been helpful.
Slowing the beast down really does make it look a noticeably less like the sock monster, it would have been nice to see you rework the model but you are dealing in the world of the possible and we do tend to press for the impossible to stetch your creativity to the max.
Maybe when the technology becomes affordable someone will do a ESB:R:SE MKI version with your lovely retracting teeth idea (that's the thing with us fan editor types we do like to change things).
And to those getting their knickers in a twist (can you feel the love Ady?) I told you he was too hard at work actually doing the thing to comment.
I noticed there is one asteroid that looks as if it's about to impact with the side of the crater which ducks behind it, if you are done and dusted with this sequence fair enough but it would be a fun addition just to see it smack into the side and splinter.

Awesome work Ady! I would have never thought you would actually go out of the way and build models and set pieces and film new elements to composite into ESB:R I would have thought you would go the CGI rout instead like you did with the Tie intro in ANH:R, but building models and set pieces would be alot more realistic than CGI anyway.
Just curious, how are you going to accomplish the two ties colliding with each other. Are you going to actually going to crash 2 models into each other?

i was wondering if you could do you cantina style manipulation on the worm's body, so it looks like its mass of flesh moves when it moves too, could also heighten the volume of it.

Also, I would stay away from anything other than HDV. SD and Hard Drive camcorders are a pain in the @ss! The Canon HV20/30 are great camcorders. I don't know about the UK market though since I'm in the US.
UK store:
US store:
For some reason it's way more expensive in the UK. I'm not sure whether or not that's a good value but I know it's a good value in the US.

Awesome news about the 720p! Higher quality is always better. The slug looks better also, really like the new Falcon not flying in a straight line.
A suggestion just hit me yesterday that I've wanted to see forever, but completely forgot:
In the carbon freezing chamber, the following dialog takes place according to the script:
VADER: Calrissian, take the princess and the Wookiee to my ship.
LANDO: You said they'd be left in the city under my supervision.
VADER: I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further.
Lando's hand instinctively goes to his throat as he turns
to Leia, Chewie, and Threepio.
I always thought that maybe Lando didn't have to do this instinctively, but Vader gives him a little squeeze in anger. I'd love to hear a little of the Force Choke Rumble under the word "pray", just to make Lando not look like he's just scratching his throat.

it would basically be all the new models and set pieces i'm having to make to replace certain shots. i am shocked just how much the UK is getting ripped off with prices after following those links. The canon would be a godsend because i just love canon cameras ( i own a 350d digital SLR & the quality is unbelievable) but at the prices we're getting charged it could never be a possibility

well for that sequence i have to build an entire new canyon to fly the camera through because the original background elements are just too bad to use. the ships i may be able to keep but if not i'll just film new elements using the TIE models separately and i can collide them easily in after effects. the hell part will be building the canyon due to the size it needs to be.
I'm also going to be building a new wampa head with horns, shoulders & arms to replace the original puppet. this way i can also replace the weird looking wampa shot as it lunges at luke in the cave. I'm starting work on that later in the week so as soon as that is finished i will post some photos.
I have also decided that if i can get the camera i'm going to be doing some behind the scenes vids showing the new models & how they were filmed. so you'll get to see the complete process on how certain shots were done from start to finish.
here is the list of stuff i have to make & film so far:
New asteroid canyon
complete Wampa head with arms connected to shoulders so it looks like it is actually taking a swing at luke
whole inside of the cave tunnel of the Slug including retractable teeth
New weather vane model (maybe)
Some snowspeeder elements
Interior snowspeeder cockpit window to fix transparency issues in close-ups & to retain moving shadows
Possibly new millennium Falcon model shots to replace the flat looking CGi shots in the approach of cloud city platform
background shots of fallen AT-ATs
there will most likely be more things needed but that's the list so far. yes all this would probably be possibly with CG but i prefer to use models for creatures and backgrounds.

i understand it being illegal to sell any copies of revisited, but would it be illegal to sell an adywan documentary dvd? basically all the special features, maybe original art, storyboarding and interviews. if you take the time out to make one after completing ESB:R we could all pay like £20 up front. then all you would have to do is post out the dvds, maybe with a signed ESB:R poster too?:)

yeh it would be illegal because i would be using copyrighted elements combined with my new elements to show the finished clips. I don't do these edits for any form of reward so i would never sell any DVD's. I'll be posting the behind the scenes videos online like a sort of video blog and they'll probably be on the DVD-9 too (or maybe a full making of DVD after the saga is finished)
The problem is that without the use of a decent camcorder all this is just a pipedream
