Ady, are you, as Imperial Fighter suggested, adding additional elements to the falling AT-AT shot to explain why it falls (rope, laser, etc.)?

yes. you'll be seeing a snowspeeder circling the AT-AT in the wide shot of the 3 AT-AT's

 

Thank the Maker! 

And as far as that other shot (the unfinished wide one of the 3 AT-AT's), I love the idea of yet another snowpeeder being briefly seen trying to bring down one of the other AT-AT's!  (It could be that Wedge and Jansen have come back for another crack at it, of course....)   That will be an another awesome addition Adywan.

Glad to see that one added to the collection ladyferry!

That's cool. Anything more to make those original shots connect more and not look like isolated fx shots is a great improvement.

oh, i get you now. i will be adding more action to the single AT-AT falling shot.

Play clever! Like AOTC when the hellfire bombs the AT-TE shit, even the background is really busy the sound isolate the eye to focus on the explosion ;)

Did you mean when the hellfire bombs the AT-TEs hit?  :)

adywan, that clip was incredible. I keep watching it over and over! Thank you for posting it.

One thing I noticed... the close-up of the rappelling line attaching to the underside of the AT-AT seems to stutter like it's moving at a different framerate.

AT-TE=shit :) , but that belongs far from this topic

lol!

Ady, love the clip! After seeing it in motion, I have zero qualms about that scene. Looks wholly believable to me. Someone suggested a camera shake as the ATAT impacts, but I think it won't be necessary after the soundtrack is altered.

Anyways, I rarely chime in on these boards, but i just wanted to express how excited for the project the clip made me. Cheers.

Maybe he is talking about a bass hit in the soundtrack.  That could work just as well as a camera shake.

I think I've found something (for once):

Roughly at the 1 second mark of the latest video, that dude inside the circle turns around, makes a "firing his weapon" motion but no actual laser bolts come out of it, so it'd be great if you could add a couple there, Ady.

How 'bout that?

Great vid btw, dunno what all the nitpicking is coming from, but I loved it!

Can someone tell me why that AT-AT is falling? You see 3 AT-ATs then a shot of look coming up underneath then you see an AT-AT falling but I didnt see anything make it fall.

Read a few posts back, and you'll find your answer in one of Ady's posts. Don't be lazy. ;)

Adywan recently stated that he intends to add a snowpeeder encircling the left AT-AT in that first (unfinished) shot of the new clip.  I notice that during the marvellous new 'group' shot where the tiny Luke rappels upwards, that there has been a tiny snowspeeder element added that is moving away from the rear of the small 'falling' AT-AT in the distance.  I'm guessing that it is meant to be the snowspeeder that brings it down, as seen flying away after it's supposedly 'detached it's tow cable'....and the one that will be shown encircling the left AT-AT before the shots of Luke rappelling up....

I'm also guessing that the scale of the 'falling' AT-AT in the shot now is too small to show any of the tiny snowspeeder's 'tow cable' around it's legs, unless Adywan still plans to add the slightest hint of it.

I don't get it. When or why the soundtrack is altered?

The shake will give a sense of extreme mass to the At-At, plus if ady will do the ground braking.

Sorry, what I meant was: at the moment, you don't hear any sound effect when the walker hits the ground. If i'm not terribly mistaken, I think I recall Ady saying that he waits until all the visuals are completed before working on the audio. So I imagine the added sound effect would make the whole thing pretty satisfying.

Although I DO think a camera shake might be cool... I feel like the sound effect might be enough.

 I loved the clip Ady, but it is a little wierd that 2 At-Ats goes down in seconds, i'm assuming there is more than 3, just not visible. Maybe you could add some faint At-Ats in the background or something, like that ones you replaced, just a thought, the few that I have :/ But I really don't know what you have planned, The way I like it ;]

Don't hurt yourself and get some sleep!

Josh, Adywan has decided to stick with 5 AT-ATs as per the original number (and gave good reasons a while back), and those 3 AT-ATs shown here are seen at the very END of the battle, where the Rebel troops are now retreating. 

The one on the LEFT-hand side is the one just about to be seen 'falling' in the distance in the new 'group' shot (and Adywan intends to add the encircling snowspeeder around it in the shot shown here), while the one on the RIGHT-hand side is the one that Luke is just about to rappel upwards to, and blow up.

The original 'falling' AT-AT shot occurs previous to this new one by a good length of time in the battle, when it was brought down by Wedge and Jansen, so won't seem 'weird' or 'close together', as they occur very seperately, with LOTS of intercut scenes of other events between them....

So that leaves 1 other AT-AT that may or may not have been brought down too ((unseen by us) out of the original 5, by the time of this shot shown here, so I don't know if Ady will include it or not.

Now I think we BOTH need to get some sleep, lol!
