That’d be sublime at the script level. The scene where they reunite works without dialogue, but it could conceivably work as the scene fades
to black. It ought to be a low voice, almost a whisper. The music could be changed to accommodate, and the length of time spent in black adjusted (if not the length of the whole shot), if need be.

I love the idea, but as with any of these AI ideas, it will really depend how it happens to be able to come together.

Still waiting on the chance to try mixing the Luke line, by the way.

Nah, I know where there’s a corresponding line in TFA that I can look at the subtitles for, where Han says the same thing in similar context.

Probably… would have been easier to include it on the list, but I could have done fine with that line if I wasn’t asking for translations.

I still have not yet had the chance to mock up that line to see how it plays, but plan to. Been hectic around here and my nights have not afforded me computer time. 😕

One thing that’s always bothered me a bit in the current release of Cloak of Deception is the music transition between the flag parade and the scene of Shmi telling Anakin to “be safe”. The track just kind of ends abruptly in the middle. The Phantom Editor addressed this by letting more of the track play out at a quieter volume over the next scene. Is this something you could take a look at for the final release?

Certainly could look into it, thank you!

Since COD will eventually get an update in the form of TMWNN’s VFX and color work, and we have the 3PO AI voice that Jar Jar Bricks has produced for TROS: Ascendant, I’m drawing up lines to generate for him. Here’s what I’ve got so far.

“Master Anakin rescued me after I was abandoned.”

“Space flight is rather perilous.” (With a tone consistent with responding in agreement to something he just heard from R2)

“I didn’t even survive my last assignment aboard a starship.”

“Master Anakin, you have saved me from the scrap pile and I am grateful. However, I fear your work remains… incomplete.”

——

Note that in the prequel trilogy, there are three lines, one per film, that form a little arch for 3PO. (And he is a slightly different character than the world-weary 3PO we get in the OT.)

“I can assure you they will never get me onto one of those dreadful starships.”

“I’m not worried, R2, it’s just that I’ve never flown before.”

“I think I’m beginning to get the hang of this flying business.”

I do not plan to revise LOE further, so bonus points if the lines generated for COD can set the stage for the last of these. (Ep2’s line was already replaced.)

I used the FCP7 color correction wheel (3-wheel) to dial it away from green, doing so more for the midrange than the blacks and even moreso for the highlights. This was a blunt adjustment with no nuance other than my eyeballs and keeping it proportioned. (Say it was -9 for the highlights, that would mean it would probably have been -6 for the midrange and -3 for the blacks.)
