That’s nice, too!

Second workprint is up, same place.

Poppasketti, that shot looks great! I think the extra camera push helps it feel right. Nice little piece of buffer.

And not a bad idea, to consider the audio landscape for Ach-to!

Man, it never did get better than this. Circa 2008:

“Wow, what are all those heads?”

Okay, Octorox, I went ahead and added vimeo-sourced DominicCobb footage for the two vision scenes. They are temp sources, and have only stereo audio, but it’ll help give a better overall sense of the shape of the edit.

“I’m so hungry, I could eat an Octorok!”

Yeah, I’m counting on getting some things from Dom eventually but I don’t have them yet. This workprint won’t be the last, but it’ll take into account what’s been done in the last week or so and be a better experience for those who want to watch a workprint and haven’t done so yet.

And to be fair, Jakku is basically a reused shot to begin with.

New ideas aside, there’s not a great deal left to do! I’ll need to get some things from others as they are completed, but I’m going to go ahead and render out a second workprint. Pretty much everything I’ve done since the first one I’ve shared in this thread, but this will be better for anyone who hasn’t already checked it out.

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.
