If you’re wanting to use Battlefront 2 footage, I recommend reaching out to Cinematic Captures. I don’t know how willing he would be to help, but there’s no one better at capturing cinematic footage from that game.

This hasn’t been released yet. And I am far from ‘wanting’ to use it at this point. I’m not that desperate yet! 😉

No one hates the mini Death Star guns mounted on millions of Star Destroyers more than me, so clearly I am in favour of a complete deletion of that sub-plot.

The only issue with removing every mention of them is the fact that you no longer will have the beautiful transition from the line “Leia made you acting general, what now?” to Poe by Leia’s side.

“Sad”

Thoughts anyone?

The Prequel Radical Redux Ideas Thread

So I was revisiting Anakin Starkiller’s EbSynth test of the abominable prequel Yoda significantly improved with puppet Yoda’s face and I came to appreciate even more just how good it was. I really want to collaborate with him and pursue this idea further! 😃

However, the ESB puppet has atticulation in its eyes that allows it to look in different directions and it seems like that would be difficult to recreate in a deepfake.

I had the idea to mask out the puppet eyes and use the CGI eyes, but it doesn’t look like the puppet anymore… 😕

Anakin Starkiller, can you post some more test clips of the puppet deepfake? I would love to see how it looks in other scenes!

I’m curious about upgrading the Hayden ghost to not be a head swap/convey the same warmth and pride as Shaw.

With NFBisms’ Hayden knowledge and Jonh’s VFX editing skills, I think it would be possible. It’d be a nice alternative to just bringing back Shaw.

Don’t forget sade1212’s Hayden ageing to make him in his late 40s instead of early 20s.

Because the people here have knocked my socks off lately (and for a long time now)…

Anyone feel like replacing Alderaan’s explosion with Kijimi’s? No shockwave and looks better all around. Might need some kind of morph or blend to get the explosion started.

I’ll give it a go.

Can you send me the ANH and the TROS clips?

I’ve posted two versions of the Mustafar tie flyover to the Master Clips folder on my drive, one that’s 5 seconds (same timing as original) and one that’s 6 seconds with about 2 seconds before the ties enter the frame. Each has a version with and without color correction so Kewlfish or whoever wants can add their own!

For reference, here they are:
Mustafar - Tie Flyover
Mustafar - Tie Flyover Alt
pw: fanedit

Hate to be a nuisance Poppasketti, but I mentioned this way back so you probably didn’t see it, but I believe that you have mistakenly used Imperial TIE models instead of First Order ones. 😉

That would be amazing! Thank you so much man!!

Can’t promise it will be perfect, but I’ll give it ago. You’ll need to give me some time though since I’ve got a lot on my plate already so I’ll have to get around to it a little later.

First of all, I’ll need you to go through your edit and tell me how many times the planet is shown. I’ll create a few variations from different angles.

That was debunked long ago. Scenes of people collapsing like that are often filmed backwards to prevent the actor being injured. The whole “Ben lives in an alternate ending” conspiracy theory was just made up by desperate Reylos after the movie’s release.

Yes! Thank you StarkillerAG, I’ve been waiting for someone to address that!

On another note if anyone is particularly good at either extracting music from scenes with dialogue or removing music completely from scenes with dialogue, can you let me know?

Also, have any of you tried doing this whole scene with no music? I think it would be super interesting to see.

That is exactly what I was referring to. I already created a sound-mix of the whole scene without music. I am currently working on finishing a more polished verison of it. It will be available for everyone to download soon.
