Cinefy, could you send me the music you used from the Bail scene since you already have it pulled aside?

Nope!
I agree with Cinefy on this one. Kijimi is the only other planet on my wish list.
Now I can place it, as the two meet in Anakin’s hut. Nice idea.
What’s that from? I don’t even recognize it? I imagined the little dudda dudda duh-duh, dudda dudda duh-duh motif heard only in ESB.
Here’s some artwork I mocked up, obviously not perfect and still a bit boring, but it’s a start. I tried to match it similarly to the first two edits, with some success. I swapped Rey’s head from some other photo, so that all 3 would have the characters facing forwards, but it aint’t 100% so I made a variant just in case
Sorry, I saw that earlier and didn’t say anything. I think the second of those looks good!
Clips (but no chips) (but ships!):

Yeah, having taken a listen to the whispers jarbear sent me, I think the more masculine whispers work better. There aren’t many of the female whispers and they don’t sound as mystical.
I added some whispers to moments in which Rey appears to get an inclination where to go next in the DSII. And one when she first gets the idea to go after the dagger on the destroyers then when she finds it.
No, not for this project anyway.
Yeah, you all convinced me on the “come home” point, provided what Dominic or anyone does with it sounds natural.
And thanks to all for input, resources, and mockups for the Sith whispers. We should be able to pretty solidly put that to rest. The blade compass thing wasn’t the worst thing in the movie, so I wasn’t really even thinking about it, but it’s good to implement a decent workaround.
I think the only whispers like that occur around the Wayfinders in the movie. If so, perhaps I could revisit the whispers that Kylo hears at the beginning, to make Rey’s more unique, presumably to the dagger.
Well it certainly works well enough to be put over a loud action sequence. You threaded the needle on that one. 😃
Hal, want me to send a full quality of the Sith whispers clip? Or will ya make your own?
Please do!
And, is that from the actual Solo OST or is it fan made??
Nice!
I remember doing a ‘report’ on Chile in like second grade because I like the food chili.
Aaaaanyway, looking forward to the next test clip.
I like that! Not anything before or after, just a little allusion.
What’s the source, a quiet portion of the same Samuel Kim video?
Maybe we can settle on something like this and avoid having two audio tracks.
I did a quick rough draft of the Sith whispers during Rey’s climb up to the throne.

Yeah, that’s the idea! Nice work. The only thing missing is some sort of shot of her holding the knife, but I think it’ll work well enough.
When the DSII’s throne room door opens for Rey, she says, “The door opens.”
I think Luke’s line “because you’re a Palpatine” makes it worthwhile to retain Kylo’s line “You are a Palpatine.”
This was my SUPER rough idea with the Sith Whisper stuff I was working on:

What’s the source for those whispers? They sound more similar to the ones Rey hears when the door opens in the DSII throne room. Not to mention that they are feminine, and better able to tap into her inner conflict.
Poppasketti sent me this link, but the whispers used don’t have to come from there.
Feel free to mock any of this up, as that sounds like some tricky audio work. One would have to re-foley the whole environment.
It sounds like it’d be pretty noisy to have increasing whispers. I imagine it being better to just have a few occasional whispers just enough to make the connection.
There isn’t usable footage for all that, and I don’t think adding more sound effects beyond the whispers would help.
Watching the workprint something was off about Palpatine’s first line of ‘Find me’
Yeah, I lowered the volume substantially on it so it’s almost subliminal.
And yeah, I’m happy we could castrate the knife.

The second whisper is definitely an improvement! The ONE thing that could make this great (which may not work) is if you could smash cut to the throne for a split second, then a just-as-quick close-up of Rey’s face (if she has a surprised look anywhere during this scene that could be zoomed in on) and then the horses show up
If only. I can take a look again later but I really doubt it.
Here’s another test. I just dropped the whispers in, and I’d blend them in and adjust volume once we’re happy with placement. That extra shot helps a lot, actually. I can’t tell if the second whisper makes the cutaway to riders more abrupt, or if it is effective at implying the voices are guiding her into the DSII.
I can try that whenever I get more time, but know that it’s a short shot.
