I didn't think Ady was using photoshop. I was assuming there was an equivalent of photoshop but for moving images but that the basic image editing principles were the same.

I know what you meant. I just laughed that you presented the process so easy :P photoshop magic and stuff :)

Has it been considered adding slight shaking to the scenes aboard the Falcon at the end?  During the asteroid chase, everyone in the Falcon is swaying left and right, but after the escape from Bespin during the dogfight with the TIEs, everyone in the cockpit and also 3P0 and R2 are still as if the ship is docked somewhere.

Well as you can see they are shaking when they are been hit from ties. And the ties are not always manage to take the shot. They want to lead them to executor not destroying them.

Im more to add laser blasters outside the cockpit here and there rather adding shaking :)

1: Use photoshop (or similar) to isolate the existing TIE fighters, falcon and explosions from the background.

2: Shoot footage of the new canyon and paste it into the background of the isolated spaceships.

3: Do some photoshop magic to make it all seamless.

Hahaha!

Photoshop all that?

Maybe im driving crraaazy! People losing theirrr minnnds!!!!

I think the plan is to build physical models of the canyon, Falcon, and TIEs, but plans may have changed in the year(s) since then.

What i can assume along these lines 005? :) Ady will not build a canyon model because he found an other suitable footage to play with? Or he will do some 3d camera tracking like he did in Bespin gantry to make this happened? Since he added 3d transports he can do nicely with 3d TIEs. These are only speculations ofc..

Remember the lightman concept for ROTJ?

They got it right :) http://technabob.com/blog/2010/09/08/iphone-controlled-led-suit/

I think his chain of thought when writing it was more like: "OK, this is kinda like a fairy tale, so it's A long time ago in a kingdom, no wait in a... in a... a... a GALAXY, yeah a galaxy, that sounds cool, in a galaxy far far away..."

 

So now is what is cool?

Well i kind agree with you. Especially in ANH what was cool and could be transformed from the other movies/legacies then there you go.

Apart that what they look cool in PT and they failed to do it :)

I didn't think, that's not even their galaxy (how would anyone even know this watching the movies without an external agent telling them that?), that's a star forming, I just thought, they're in space....

 

It looks like a galaxy... so even back to 80s i think any science book or magazine (popular science?) could have an image of our galaxy that can do the connection Thats why i said the forming star is lookalike with a galaxy. It can cause confusion. Space have personality, only when has something to show. If yes then make sure you will do it right if that is called nebula or a spaceship or a planet or a galaxy aka forming star ;) But this is ady's edit so move on

Btw i like the avatar from the Network you have :D

But isn't that the whole point of what makes a good movie. It enables the audience to interpret things their own way instead of having everything spelled out for them

I'm not going to be changing the way it looks. I've loved that star ever since 1980. Some things just don't need to be changed.

Interesting point.

If they weren't unspecified elements into a movie then endless debates and waste of times would be pointless... I love movie industry :D

Well ady since you will enhance the shot (meaning remove/fix the blue screen effects/starfields etc) im happy with that.

-Angel

Whats the point then the rebels hiding in this particular galaxy in the first place? ;)

Why not the empire not have patrols outside the perimeter? like it wasnt a plan that the rebels should mass outside a galaxy? Since the dude from ANH mentioned Ultimate power in the universe so  they must know other galaxies "in" the universe. so i assume a fleet of stardestroyers can be OUTSIDE the galaxies and from there send the probes? (i assume no because behind the SD in the beginning we see a small moon

You can add some impressive unique planetary system (sullust maybe?) that fits to a typical clische fairytale ending. and there you have it. No science no politics just make it look awesome.. :)

adywan said:

I still prefer the idea that it's a forming star.

Thats the problem when similar things are lookalike.

dont forget the sunrise sunset debate ;)

Bingowings said:

The black does look good it might help the scene if there was a medical droid on the podium to play up the injury angle.

The medical droids in the ROTJ briefing make no sense but Palpatine is playing on narrowly surviving a disfiguring attack against him by the Jedi here.

Awesome point!

Indeed the medical droid will sell the idea/propaganda that palps is weak and he needs to take extreme rules against the jedi assasins.

Great idea Bingo. Lets see if its possible tho/=.=

-Angel

Or maybe have the rebels building a death star-y station that will manage to eliminate the empire thread in ROTJ. Then have a battle station battle between cybertron and unicron.. i mean death star and life star

 Perhaps vaderios isn't one of them.  

Thank you sir :)

You can check my activity to the other forums that can tell the truth :D

-Angel

Ady said that shot looks like more like a birth of a star and not like a galaxy.

Witch reminds that if the shot stays it needs some re mastering.

If not you can have whatever it looks good for an ending. From a broken planet to a sunset behind an asteroid field. who knows

Warbler said:

I'll also bet vaderios, alphabetty spaghetti  are also Bingowings and/or  ABC.  Whatever the case, I'm putting them all on ignore.    

 

Hahhahaha!

You rock my friend...

-Angel

Nope!

I assume production tests for the AT-Ats :)

-Angel

Well the most interesting for me is this.

The creation of the galaxy at the end of Empire :)

and this

-Angel

Well credit to original artists :)

-Angel

With 3 persons now behind the keyboard  can cause confusion :P

Ady: do you have any special equipment such as camera stabilizer, cranes and some studio lights that will help you finalize the look of your future props?

Or you will rent a studio that will do the job too?

I was wondering if some shots with props will require too much job for such a small screening time unless you are planing to re do radically the sequences. You can also build some partial parts and use mirrors or blue screen effects like the old times to make the process faster?

-Angel and Berry

In star wars and Empire we listen only once the word stormtroopers.

"Only imperial stormtrooper can be..."

"Stormtroopers? here? I must allert the others"

Now if you noticed the word clone is mention numerous times in the last PT films. not to mention Clone wars series.Younger viewers can messed it up.

I admire OT that mentions so little about names and shit. PT is full of these.

-Berry

Holy potato!!!

Mr J that is awesome!

-Angel

Double Thanks Bingo ;)

-Angel

Thanks :)

Never stop posting radical changes. From the slightest one to the "radicalest" one.

-:%I encourage people making mockups or finding interesting artistic webfinds to visualize their ideas. So feel free to join this quest.%:-

nice "attack" you ve got there...

now rethink your life :)

This is very interesting. The artist and photographer Vincent Fournier took some amazing shots a space looking rock desert that might add something to tattoine. Im impressed that his mood and colors are like mac's paintings so it can add some much more interesting landscape variation and interest to the poor 77's star wars.

The little space man in the pictures add even more to the sci fi and loneness feeling that this planet should have :)

Plus i find this image comparison very very interesting :)

Also ideas and new approach to yavin. Id like something more alien. Combined with ancient temples etc. Dramatic lightning even weather conditions to replace the poor and boring pan scans of the forest can be similar to these.

Also i was testing some new sky ideas. nothing final.

The rays might actually point at luke. Someone pointed that could be cool that its raining. thats far from the concept that i like. Plus i dont know how far the home is from Ben and the dead jawas but the skies are pretty clear.
