Anakin meets Padame Hdr test
These are the concept trailers for my Prequels Revised Trilogy. I hope to balance the movies both in the editing, but also the visual effects.
Scenes like Anakin’s approach to the Jedi temple look way to digital and smooth, so i’ve added more texture to these scenes.
Scenes like the Attack of Theed or Escape of Naboo are turned into more of a battle, with stakes. This also helps make the movies “Faster, and more intense”.
MACE FIGHTS SIDIOUS ALONE. The other jedi were near useless and it makes Windu more the awesome jedi he’s supposed to be.
Recoloring Federation ships to resemble Empire Ships more.
I have really enjoyed every one’s edits but hoped for a little more visual cohesion. Like the fact the lightsabers don’t look the same between ep I to Ep III. Padame’s light up dress having its chord showing. Lightsabers passing through body parts when they shouldn’t. Shadows facing the wrong direction (TPM). Stunt actors or stand in’s like Mace at end of TPM being removed with proper actors face placed over. And as many changes as possible. Mimmicking somethings done by previous edits, like new voice dubs to aliens and droids, using deleted scenes, removing all metachlorine talk, etc. And any other possible changes i can think of or pull off. Somethings i would like to do are a little ambitions, so we will see if i can pull them all off or not. (I do not have the ability to film new scenes like Adywan. At least not presently).
I do appreciate any feed back or ideas. This is meant for enjoyment by all, so im open to ideas.

WOW!!!
I totally love the purpose of this, especially the dirtier assault on the Jedi Temple, the lightsabers recolors.
Really looking forward to this. Probably the esplosions on Naboo still need some work, but from what I’ve seen… “a surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one”.

IIFaneditore, Thank you very much!! Ill try to make the explosion on Theed better. There is still a lot to do in those scenes as far as lighting on buildings and such from the explosions. Im also trying to get a hold of better elements, while also improving my ability. So hopefully when im done itll look better than these production trailers. There is a lot of work to do, so i tend to spread it around. Which also helps me get an idea for how the complete project is coming, and gives me time to improve things before the final films.
I would like to replace all the star fields by the final films. Along with various things like, improving texturing and lighting of Jar Jar, Completely redoing many of the planets while adding city lights visible from space to Naboo. Redoing Corasaunt will be tricky. Need bump maps, gloss passes, lights, etc.
I would love to film model ships against green screen for some new battle shots, along with a few actors dress up as Naboo soldiers or civilians and getting shots of the ground battle with in Theed as the Federation invades. (Though i may be able to use some scenes from the Mandalorian as they show droids attacking people)
New voice dubs for aliens and droids will also take time along with trying to get everything in full surround sound will take some time and work. So in all that time, i expect to learn much more and hopefully attain the needed models, props, and outfits to do some of what i would like.
Muclunkey!

That’s so interesting! After Adywan said that he wouldn’t work on the PT, I’ve waited for a project such as this.
Good luck with it, and keep us updated 😉

Yea, he was going to do them at one point. Has since decided not to. So that’s actually what inspired me lol (Would totally rather he did all the work lol) I really like the prequel trilogy, and like what Ady did with the OG Trilogy. So i figured since no one else was attempting it, i might try.
Muclunkey!

Will you do the same for the other CGI characters and aliens, so they wouldn’t feel out of place?
The unfortunate reality of the Star Wars prequel and Disney trilogies is that they will always be around. Forever. They will never go away. It can never be undone.
I also prefer to be referred to as “TNT”, not “Freezing”.
The effects look great! I’m curious why you changed Obi-Wan’s lightsaber to green in Revenge of the Sith though, since he is using his OT lightsaber, unless you’re planning to make his saber green in ANH too.
Awesome! I really love what you’ve done with the sabers especially. Are you doing this edit in 1080p, ~30gb Bluray quality? I’d love to cannibalise those saber shots for my personal edits for my rewatch before TROS, so if you have renders of those shots in good quality lying around, I would really appreciate you sending them my way, if that’s cool with you. No need for any of the shots where you’ve given Obi Wan a green saber (though I love the idea and how it looks, I’m sticking to canon this time around). Cheers.
It’s a great start.
I too would like to know why Kenobi’s lightsaber was changed.
Well, for someone who doesn’t like the prequels at all, color and fx alone made me say “What?!” multiple times and I had a smile on my face after the first engine glows. Subtle and enhancing. Color me interested. 😃 Fantastic trailer!

FreezingTNT2 That is the plan. I would like to save as much of the movie as possible, including Jar Jar’s Scenes and the GunGun’s. (The Grass and hills need fixing in some of those shots too)

RogueLeader- Originally i started this in 720p making an all in one version for my self, in which yes, i altered ANH. This is for my personal version. As i’ve always liked Green for Masters and Blue for padawan’s. Those were originally done in 720p to be watchable in Machete Order with Adywan’s Revisited Series.
Note- Adywan planned to make all prequel sabers blue. With Lukes being the first Green one, signaling a new start.
That is where the ATOK and ROTS scenes are coming from. An older version earlier this year i had done.
After initial proof of concept and some talk with friends. I decided to go back and redo all 3 films as stand alones. In 1080p surround sound if possible. So currently, im working on Ep I anew (which is where all that footage is coming from).
One version will have all original colors.
One will match Revisited.
Then there will be my personal cut where Jedi have Green and Padawan Blue.
With an Eu version, showing alt colors for characters that have them.
These are meant for the fan’s enjoyment, and saber colors are easy to change once rotoscoped. 😃
Muclunkey!

sade1212- They will be in 1080p. Idk how large the final will be though when complete. I hope to have it in surround sound too.
I fully expect and am ok with scenes being used in other edits long as credit is given somewhere. My edits make use of Hal9000’s deleted scenes (though there will be more work on them), So i intend to include him and all original cast and crew in the credits. 😃
Again, these are for the fans 😃
Muclunkey!

MisterBenja1977- Thank you very much! I appreciate everyone’s positive reaction and appreciate any and all feed back 😄 As answered above, there will definitely be a version preserving all normal saber colors. 😃
Muclunkey!

DigMod- Thank you very much!! I have wanted to go public with it sooner but wanted to get enough done to properly show how they can and will be. The responses have been very encouraging, thank you everyone!

Some comparison shots of some of the changes. Washed out, see through light sabers. Sabers passing through body parts it shouldn’t be. Bad cgi backgrounds. And much more. I will try to make a complete list of changes.
Test concepts for completely new scenes, such as actually showing Anakin be a good combat pilot. The Escape of Naboo, and the Attack of Theed will all have new scenes to help support the intended narrative.
Muclunkey!

If any one has questions as to how some of this was done, feel free to ask. Many are working on their own edits and may want to make different changes in their own edits. I use Adobe After Effects and Davinci Resolve. The light sabers for instance are completely re-rotoscoped along with all blaster fire. This is not co-pilots saber app. The dual tone was achieved in the sabers by creating two layers at different colors and strengths. Just rotoscoped a white solid layer. Gaussian blur, with multiple layers at different levels. Precomposed over a black solid and turned into a screen. Using curves allows you to now apply color and brightness strength. If you are changing colors though, you must duplicate main video layer and mask out the saber after using the change color feature. Otherwise your screen will be a mix of the base color and your new color. So change base layer to the color you want. For the dual tone color. Duplicate your final composition layer, with your bottom layer set to darker tone and set brighter, while the brighter tone is on top and not as bright/wide.
Muclunkey!

I’m excited that we’re entering the phase of editing where we’re able to make major revisions to shots like this on top of the current trimming/cutting we’ve had for a while. Lead us forward, man!
IlFanEditore- That was always one scene i really wanted to change, im glad everyone are enjoying the changes so far 😃
