OK, sorry for my rant.

this will be a very long project but if anyone can find some partly rare footage files please send it to me and I will see what I can do with it

the idea is to make all this into an hd mkv file so not vob or anything and have it displayed in 16:9 widescreen

Well, you'll have to pillar box because all of the behind the scenes footage in Making of Star Wars and other such documentaries were 4:3. 

I’m just here because I’m driving tonight.

that is true so yeah that may have to be done

Wait, so what happens when a new Bluray set comes out with more material?  Wouldn't there have to be a new, more complete fan documentary?

Author
Time

I guess so and then it will have to be v2.0 and speaking of which would it be awesome for disney to now release the original versions of the trilogy on blu-ray although it may not be as good as the DE so if that happens I will probably stick with the DE as a source for the film

Yeah, ESB is what I'm looking forward to the most. SO many interesting story changes and cut scenes.

BTW still have yet to watch When Star Wars Ruled the World. How is it?

if its possible we might try to make the documentary footage compatible with the hd footage I am using I will probably use the making of documentary from the BD release as the main source and try to color correct it as well like what harmy did so if there are other versions of the documentary I should know of please let me know

if its possible I will make special versions of the actual documentary's just for fun

Nah, that's unnecessary. Just stick to this project.

you sure? I always wantedto hear the alternate narrative on the making of star wars

What’s worse George Lucas changing the OT or selling the rights to Disney

Author

well I would like to find the audio for myself and release it as a special with this project

What’s worse George Lucas changing the OT or selling the rights to Disney

Author

just the audio only as a mp3 file I heard it was different with the narrator in the corn pops package of the documentary

Wait, alternate narration? I thought you meant just re-editing the documentaries with different footage. THAT would be superfluous.

 

I’m just here because I’m driving tonight.

Author
Time

well I could put the audio in and anyone can use it to sync with the BD picture if they wanted

What’s worse George Lucas changing the OT or selling the rights to Disney

Author
Time

so yeah that would be good as a bonus

What’s worse George Lucas changing the OT or selling the rights to Disney

Author
Time

well back to the main project is there any other documentary to use as sources or am I all good here?

You know you don't have to post in this thread every three minutes, right?

Author
Time

yes but ideas are good

What’s worse George Lucas changing the OT or selling the rights to Disney

Author

well at least the first luke deleted scene looks better on the BD then on earlier versions

They are different edits though, aren't they? The Behind the Magic CD and BD versions?

I’m just here because I’m driving tonight.

well on blu-ray it was all in color and there was audio whereas behind the magic the scene had no audio and no color because when the film negative was found it was washed and deteriorated so lucasfilm must have cleaned it for the blu-ray and earlier ocpmovie used the radio drama for audio
