Interesting ideas, but it seems it’d be a little too much to pull off with merely audio changes. However, I think a ‘minimal changes needed to make Rey remain a non-Palpatine’ would probably be the way to go for the alternate cut of Ascendant.
Puppet show is indeed good to go!
Sherlock managed to get the “birth of her son” thing pretty darn seamless so that’s done too. He also just got me the bits and pieces needed for the “I’m a Jedi” moment, and I just need to mix it and what sade1212 did to finish that scene up.
The Leia wayfinder scene just had a little trim to remove her line “No,” and Rey’s response. It just felt right when Sherlock presented it to me.
The crackly saber effect is likely going to be the final piece to be installed, unsurprisingly. I have everything post-Kijimi already, thanks to Luka Frik. But, MR has encountered hardware failure that dovetails nicely with a lack of employment that spells a good waiting period for the remainder. Unless kewlfish re-emerges or other help unlooked for.
Crait is lousy with krayts.

Just updated the OP. Nothing dramatic, just bringing the inventory in line with the present.
Things are certainly closing in on a V2 release, with the biggest holdout (in terms of both scope and shaky ETA) being the crackly saber FX.
I’m trying to complete the final promised effects for both projects so that they’re done around the same time. I have a deadline set for the first week of November, but this edit’s basically done so now it’s just getting the Ascendant shots done and sent to Hal.
Not to derail the thread, but you’re working on the crackly saber shots, right?
No, just the biomes opening and Rey’s eyes in the vision.
What about her eyes when she flares her teeth? The yellow eyes could flash up when she does that.
I’m so indifferent to that idea it hurts. If Nev genuinely feels like doing it ill include it but I really don’t care. Taking care of the inexplicable milky eyes is the main concern on my end.
That said, this TFA project is gonna be something real special. 😃
lol, yeah, red welding marks to match his helmet. The ape creature can even be seen starting to come out of the ship in that shot, and be in the background during Rey and Ben’s final scene.
Just have him show up in another one of his First Order TIEs, green this time.
Let me just mention that, in the interests of future-proofing and preservation, I’m going to attempt to export my projects into ProRes and add them to my Drive so others can access and even use them. FCP7 will not run on whatever computer I get next, so I don’t want things to hinge on an old computer continuing to work forever. This resolution follows a vain attempt to virtualize an older OS.
Rogue One is there now, and hopefully the others to follow. The ST shouldn’t be a big problem, but the prequels may or may not be possible.
Add a card to episodes 4-9’s credits saying “Eternal Gratitude to Rick McCallum”.
Remove Carrie Fisher’s in memoriam credit from TLJ so the Platonic viewer of the series won’t be aware that her appearance in TROS is artificial.
(This is the worst edit ideas thread.)
This is a good news.
Yes.
That change has always been unimportant. Thanks in part to poppasketti we’ve just got an embarrassment of riches.
What if Jedi Rocks reverberates through the bar on Kijimi?
I just installed toadies into positions of overseeing the poll, so we might be able to give it a repeat.
I’ll be checking IDs to make sure you don’t want to vote for the TIE, though.
That still only counts as one vote.
Nice.
Maybe I can audit the prior poll and talk about it long enough that I can just convince people I won.
The clip itself is available on the Drive, and will continue to be, but I can’t justify an entire alternate version and 60GB of data just for that one brief difference.
Truthfully, I kinda regret leaving it open to a poll, as I prefer the shuttle! But, I chose to do that so I will honor the result.
hello guys, i was absent from this thread for while, can u update me of what things still need to be solved and done before a new version of the edit can be relesased? thank u
See the OP.
It’s a lot easier to get excited than to do the work, but I’m with ya on that. 😭
JEDIT: That’s how the forum apparently translates the ‘sad winkie face. Like this ; (
I certainly wouldn’t consider it obsolete, but I appreciate making available what you’ve already completed.
Taps
And FWIW I haven’t seen a crackly saber effect from you, kewlfish or Luka that I thought anything about other than “wow that’s amazing I’m glad to have this.” So, I’d personally take something you don’t feel is flawless over nothing.
No AE experience either, but I can imagine doing the same with FCP7 by “reconnecting media.” Or at worst, manually realigning the clips to match the position.
