He won't, just as he won't add any PT music to it, fortunately.

Ady, how did you make the new Emperor hologram?  It looks like entirely newly filmed footage, which is impossible, of course...

He used Footage from ROTJ's Emperor and the lip sync is from ROTS emperor.

WOW.  It's seamless, that's amazing!

I'm totally jealous IF. we haven't had a flake of snow here :(

Be careful what you wish for....  ;)

Yeah, it's been a nightmare going back to work this week.  While it was neat for the kids to get a white Christmas here, I thought it would be gone in a week, so it's certainly outstayed it's welcome now....  I went into my fridge to heat up....brrrrr....

Sorry to hear about the bad luck with the car.  Such a hassle.  And I remember seeing the news item about your town centre's big gas explosion....scary stuff....

By the way, did you get my PM okay that I sent on 7th Jan. about a couple of things?

....so although the 'scaling' issues may have to slide, I reckon things would have tied better together if we could at least have seen the brief hint of an 'opposing leg-joint' coming in-and-out-and-in-again added during the approximate 5 seconds of 'prop' footage where Luke swipes upwards with his lightsaber....

I'm planning on building a model of the top leg joint to replace the movie version to fix the detail and try to match the movement. It's impossible to fix the gap between the two leg joints because it would block out the hatch but there may be a way to add a hint of the other leg. If i can't get it too look right though it will have to stay the way it is.

 

Wow, another model!  Fingers crossed that things here can be improved a little.

Something ive noticed is that the tube/tool/whatever that is near han is moved when the droid pushes it. but in the next shot in the close up its again at its first position.

already fixed :)

 

Great stuff.

And secondly if the AT-ATs are so low how the heck can fire at snowspeeders in straight lines. Arent the lasers supposed to be from the ground(aka Walkers)?

The tiny AT-AT's are being replaced so it looks like they are flying closer to the walkers

 

More great stuff.

vaderios's top 2 'zoomed-in' shots are taken from the single shot where Han gestures to the moving beeping droid and tells it to "Wait a minute", where it then immediately comes to a halt and stops beeping before Han then asks Luke "You all right?

We then cut to Luke who responds "Yeah", and then cut to the 'close-up' of Han seen in the 3rd shot down.  At this point we now see the droid continue to beep and trundle past Han....

Well Han actually says "wait a second" and the droid does wait then carries on with what he was doing, so he did obey Han. I think its fine the way it is.

 

Oops, that's right, Han says "Wait a second", rather than "Wait a minute", so it can seem as if the droid has started up on it's way again a few moments later.  Although it always seemed jarring to me, and I'd have preferred it to have remained off-screen while waiting for Han's instructions, this possibility works okay too.

Luke's rescue clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwULLrS8ZXw

@ 6:46, downfall of the Tauntaun: Is it just me or does anyone else notice that the falling Tauntaun still has this effect of a stop-motion-creature (especially the leg)? It doesn't look natural, i. e. smooth.
As far as I recall Adywan did improve the movement of the tauntaun in the first scene we see one (Luke riding it), didn't he?

The clip you linked to is still messed up.  Here's a perfect version - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJD6fUC7VxY

Can't say that one ever bothered me though, as I thought it was just part of the charm of the stop-motion work.  I remember Ray Harryhausen saying that he deliberately 'over-exaggerated' certain movements to add 'character'.  I reckon Phil Tippett did the same.

This has probably already been answered, but will there be a Blu-Ray release for ESB:R since it's being edited in 720p? If so, is there anyone at this site who can burn Blu-Ray discs in exchange for donations/reimbursement?

If my PS3 can play it then that's good enough for me. Still, a Blu-Ray release would be swanky.

Hi guys,

A motion test to see if Han and Chewie could be resized to improve the scale of the Falcon, at present I've only adjusted Han, gonna try and fix Chewie & dash next.  I also fiddled with the droid who interrupts the next scene of Han & Luke as suggested by Vaderios, I know Ady isn't going to fix these scenes so I thought I'd mock them up just to see if everyone thinks it is worth it.

Sorry just realised I rendered this clip with no audio, I'll render audio with the next post, and hopefully adjust Chewie

Also noticed top of Han's welding tool as he swings it up

See you removed the droid from Han's first 'close-up' too Jaitea.  Will be interested to see how this plays out with audio in your finished version eventually.
