Well all my work has currently being decimated by coronaviras.
Live events are struggling to happen. I have a lot of time on my hands but I need to focus on perhaps finding some alternate work so there is money coming in.
So I need a break and deal with problems.
To be ho honest with you everything is quite self explanatory apart from R2-D2 in the canyon.
This has quite a few question marks about the order of scenes also.
There is a cut away in the middle I think…
And there is another cut away when they are carrying R2-D2 up the hill.
The music does not line up entirely. And the music cue has been discarded in favor of music edits.
The Special Edition does on occasion correct intention of a scene… But to me it looks like the Special Edition Sandcrawler was shot to fill the missing shot in that canyon sequence. Then they decided to remove the Original shot of Sandcrawler and use this shot instead… But all along all that is missing is the establishing shot of the Sandcrawler at Lars Homestead as they have stopped. They even removed the dialogue because here because of a missing shot the dialogue does not work and still does not work even now.
Best way to do this is to do an Adywan on C3P0 sandcrawler.
Move Special Edition Sandcrawler to middle of canyon.
Create sunset and sandcrawler shot to fix jump cut carrying R2.
Create Sandcrawler establishing shot Lars Homestead.
When it comes to Vader and Bast I think this scene needs bringing forward. Once again we have a missing establishing shot of smoke rising behind the sand dunes for Sandcrawler so I place Vader and Bast directly before they discover the Sandcrawler.
Shot of Death Star… Vader and Bast… Wipe to smoke coming from behind sand dunes and resume.
Wonder if the Dewback Special edition music works on this scene?
Eveything that is wrong with this part is connected to the Sandcrawler in some way and it now becomes obvious the struggle of the Sandcrawler and trying to get rid of anything about it Special effects wise and the smoke rising behind ghe sand dunes became redundant because Vader and Bast scene was removed. Although it was the easiest Sandcrawler shot to do because it was not in camera.
Or perhaps they wanted to show the Sandcrawler destroyed and derelict and again it is missing visually narrative shots. All to do with the Sandcrawler.
