I frankly have no idea what your second and third "sentences" mean.

I know, i rock sometimes :P

Well when Vader chokes needa and he falls/kneels down the camera focus changes. Because the timing of the focus changing and the fall of needa is so close it looks like Needa bends the floor. I suggest it to ady to fix it as an error but at the end its just an awkward camera effect :)

Thank you for your information, DE.  In fact, it happens a great deal in Goldeneye!  I find it quite irritating.  I wonder if Ady will attempt to fix it; if so, I shall try to find the other moments it happens. 

I cant think ways fixing these focus changing.

Its inclusion like like when i noticed the floor bended when needa kneels.

Makes some awkward effects.

Adywan, there were loads of neat stuff on your 'Luke's rescue' clip......

Now to dagobah.

Happy Everything :)

We could find some people to make Spanish, German and French no problem I think.

And Greek!!!

Ady said that he is not bothering with the subs until the final stages of the edit.

Angel, those before and afters are stunning.  OT-izing the film will right off the bat, make the movie seem more serious.

Well hoping for the best here

Merry Spacemas folks

Here's the problem with "fixing" the PT. Many of the fixes require story changes, not mere vfx enhancements.

We need to look at ways to enhance the story visually.

Well thats not my job to do that. In fact i dont care :)

Im here for visuals only

I can do things in Photoshop that would make it look better but a static image just doesn't cut it.

3d camera projection then.... :)

-Angel

You tell me :P

-Angel

OTize the holograms

Less detail retro blending technicks like ESB ones

Windu took an extreme make over. That lightwrarp is PAIN

ROTS rulez at colors :)

-Angel

meaning like this? I like the concept.

Does anyone other bothers some weird retro fades/vignettes (cant find the word) here and there in several shots? reminds me that there is the end of film. plus we have loss of color and look like dust....

Looking at this link below, notice Luke is covered in snow in the first (top) shot, in the next shots the snow on his back decreases hugely. If there's any to do something about that or make it less jarring it would be great. Easier said than done, though.

Isnt the first pic supposed to be flipped. the radio thing on luke's hand is in the wrong hand? i think. Also the darker/brown parts in the first pic are missing. Am i see things?

-Angel

Yeah timelapse, not real time, but i get your point for stylized time (movie time)

@Sevb i see what i can do :)

-Angel

Sevb32 said:

Angel how about a snow covered back Luke mock up?

Point me what i have to notice/fix. Sometimes my english isnt enough to spot the shot and i see what i can do if i can do it. :)

-Angel

Since the big plate on Endor moon should have night light traffic lights?

Isnt supposed to be at least hidden? or Endor became Coruscant?

Assuming the moon hasnt full nights with the reflection of Endor (see pandora-Avatar) the dish can visually stands as shape/silhouette to all the night shots. One more factor to add Endor.

original idea from http://yakspub.com/2009/12/21/commander-scrooge/

-Angel

Im impressed :)

Sevb32 said:

Now...about that wildly inconsistant snow on Luke's back.

I remember Ady said that the snow could be probably hard if not impossible to fix and maintain continuity in these shots.

Maybe im wrong :)

 Angel, your mockups make me pee rainbows,

Id love to see this in motion.

Pics or never happened :)

Michael Rocks. Accept it or feel his explosive wrath.

Arg!

Hmm, the Brighter version seems to add a very retro feeling. Perhaps we are used to heavier contrasts.

In the canyon shot pan, it looks a bit faded.

maybe its me but vader has some red tint in the cape? im not sure.

Otherwise i like the retroize approach :)

Still cant wait to see the new mattes

adywan said:

I also noticed when seeing the pics above of Chewie that i had included the wrong version of that shot because i had a layer disabled. That was just a test sot for the tracking purpose and included a static background

What layer did you add/missed?

Nice fur there, Same as my carpet.. :)

-Angel

Alarm is red now(more convenient)

OTize de modernize the holo, place the planet in the correct possition. Now if you look the previous shots in the same camera angle you will notice that the masking compostiting as the light contrast changes dramaticaly...

Made Ric more handsome and awesome :)

Ship shooting after the shields are up making Ric a war hero

EDIT:

Its funny but most of the errors are in the identical shots:

I fixed most of them(if not all).

Added sparks to floor.

The one alien guy hasnt move at all. Probably a dummy.

Right click to see them in full size

Same here. Moving Backgrounds from their own

Right now Impress me making this shot work:

Colors ,Position, Bad perspective, different lightning, even some details are different........

Because the smarties from ILM used the same element from the landing shot(pic one) and distort them. the shot is WRONG!

Shot 1 Quigon deflects a laser and makes a mark. Shot 2 the mark is gone

 I think Ady was going to show us a picture of the fur. I'm curious to see any undertones of different colors in it. I figure it's not going to be pure white, but have some black and brown in it, if only a bit under the surface. Right?

Bring it!
