I don’t think it’s necessary to show them “decoding” the message since it doesn’t really add anything to the next scene, on the contrary it kinda drags it out unnecessarily. I think the original idea just flows better from an editing perspective, what’s the message? Answer: You hear the message. It just feels more dramatic to hear Palpatine’s leaked discussion along with the rest of the resistance for the first time.

I only extended it out, because I felt like it really distracted over the conference/meeting scene.

Resistance base extended scene - Alternate Palpatine message idea

Concept: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGYEq59QZzc

Super rough.

I’ve isolated Ian Mcdirmids Palpatine dialogue

V2 Test:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPdX9HVX-go&feature=youtu.be

I’ve made it so as Kylo enters, Hux and Pryde abruptly look in his direction, dialogue is isolated can send the message without music and hologram sounds through if needed.

What if as Kylo enters the First Order conference room, they are listening to the message; when he throws head on table it switches off immediately, the two stormtroopers could perhaps hear palpatines message from outside the room. (Basically could be muffled as Knights Of Ren and Kylo make they’re way over, stormtroopers make comment about it instead of ghouls)

Someone else can probably do this a lot better, maybe a blue light could shut off to represent a hologram.

Has anyone considered cutting the Palpatine hologram call to General Pryde from later in the movie? Then reusing that footage for a Palpatine return message to Pryde earlier on, almost like he’s in on it. (Pryde almost does just show up out of nowhere)

All that would need to be done is hiding Palpatine’s mouth which it does fall under the darkness/of hologram a lot in the shot.

Episode III - ‘I am the senate’ Theme over Resistance approach scene, Thoughts?

(This could be executed a lot better, annoys me theres no music in this scene)

Yeah, if people are passionate about fanedits, they’ll find us. It’s not wise to promote the community too widely.

Agreed.

Rey V Kylo DOTF V2 - Tried recutting the Solo music to stretch it out slightly and also include a small battle of the heroes Anaology/play-in, still kept it subtle; but after seeing people wanted more found a way to pace it in better and still kept it small while also improving it.

He’s actually a professional film director in Spain. Probably got a lot on his plate.

Thats what I was referring to, yeah.

What happened with Jonh? i haven’t seen a post of him for a while, did he stop working on luke’s hair?

Lol I literally just asked that yesterday. He’s back to working full time now.

Back to working full time on edits or his other work?

I wish we could get Palpatine to say “Nothing will stop the REVENGE OF THE SITH” instead of saying return,

I have to say no that that at least due to a seeming misuse of the Kylo Ren motif. 😕 sorry.

I agree fair enough, Kylo isn’t actually in the scene where thats from btw.

If First Order/Kylo theme doesn’t work. I’m gonna see if I can get something Palpatine related to fit.

During the Exegol arrival there is no music, added music from The Last Jedi soundtrack and it really improves and increases the stakes of the scene, feels a lot more intense with this added I made sure it lined up with the shots in the scene in-terms of pacing it in correctly.

Uses music from Last Jedi Soundtrack.

Any ideas of a theme that could be added when the Resistance first arrive on Exegol, the scene has no music and Its clearly for a reason but I think it could use some kind of familiar star wars theme/chime that people will recognise, should be super subtle like the Duel Of The Fates and C3PO&R2 themes.

It’s heading up now!

Are you gonna do the duel of the fates Exegol thing you talked about, I had a pretty solid concept test for it awhile back

Is the next workprint the 4th?

Extending that scene kinda feels unnecessary and I don’t think the music works at all.

I know at some point C-3PO dialogue was being searched for and realised theres a bunch of Anthony Daniels dialogue in Lego: Star Wars Droid Tales including a memory restoration scene.

The only line I thought was worth using is “The Day of Sith” as a whisper shouldn’t be anymore of the message.

Such a waste, theres perfectly good palpatine dialogue. Works as whispers in my opinion.

FYI Fortnite is a terrible game made for the sole purpose of exploiting children for money.

It’s quite easy to remove the music. I can do it.

Try adding Palpatine’s line from fortnite - “The day of the Sith” before “find me” on Mustafar on next workprint should be easy thing todo.

I know everyone is satisfied with Palpatine clones being in the tank, and I very much like the addition, But I feel like the film is missing some sort of verbal confirmation/mention of how he came back. May not be away of doing that, but I think Palpatine’s return needs a couple more extra sprinkles.

[Has anyone attempted to place a vision when Kylo is on Mustafar, something with the wayfinder]
