Well, I guess I’ll have to buy a 4K TV just to watch these. Fantastic job!

There’s gotta be something wrong with the UHD conversion because it’s way oversaturated.
You probably don’t recognize me because of the red arm.

And it’s too dark.
This has been discussed elsewhere on the board but it does have to do with coming from the original HDR, it shouldn’t look like that (though the filmized would still be even less saturated).

Here’s some test footage from TPM.

This doesn’t have the sharpening/deblocking filter on it as that is a shot by shot process and is VERY resource intensive, and so is reserved for screenshots for now.
I redid the grading again: added a little blue and pink, desaturated the colors a bit. Increased grain and added a bit of flicker.
Much like the previous screenshots, these are first dips into working from the new 4K Blu-ray, so feedback is very much welcome.
I did look at the trailer posted earlier, and I did end up creating a look nearly identical, but I thought it looked too blue and desaturated and was really wondering if that was an accurate color corrected view of the trailer print. Still I pushed a little bit closer to what the colors looked like there, but still kept warmth.
Outstanding work, just wow. Beautiful!

Woah… That’s amazing. I just have one gripe, it’s a bit too dark.
This looks gorgeous! That grain really hits the spot. I love this movie, but I never thought I’d be this excited to see it again!
I feel that the room in this shot here should be more white

Ok, I’m now officially HYPED for this

That looks excellent! The colors are close to perfect, very filmic! Perhaps a tiny bit more shadow detail.

Having a little trouble viewing this video but man, what I see looks magnificent. It puts me in the mind of watching technicolor epics from the 50s and 60s. Beautiful grain, gorgeous colour - love those slightly teal-y technicolor blues. Fantastic work.

No, I think the colors here are very accurate to the original coloring. This room was never white:
Indeed, Tantive3+1’s proposal looks very nice, but is moving away from the theatrical version.
Can confirm from having seen Phantom Menace in theaters, a long time ago…

Will do, I was trying to get the light levels just right. The shadows are darker than the original, so I can bring them back up. Should the highlights be brighter too, or are they at a good level?

The hightlights are great! Keep up the fantastic work! I’ve been refreshing this page multiple times a day to see if any new updates were made!!
This is all looking really impressive! Very much looking forward to watching this. 😃
Can’t wait to see this finished! Would love to use this for a TPM Theatrical edit later on. Looks great 😃
Is there a possibility you could release a 1080p version when you’re finished?
I’ve made some slight adjustments, what does everyone think? https://imgur.com/a/UDX6m6N

Hey now! That test clip looks really good to me, and the grain is really satisfying.
I guess it depends on what you’re after. If you want a darker, noisier film print look, the test clip does a good job at that. But it has a slightly grungy look to it.
I’d personally prefer something more like a brand new, pristine 4K digital remaster like Sony would release on 4K Blu-ray. A little brighter (as you’ve already adjusted) and maybe take the noise/flicker down just a touch.

Well to be fair, so is this entire project with AotC and RotS. It isn’t so much a restoration of the film versions shown in theaters, it’s an edit that makes them look like film, an entire third version.
