The first one is the deleted scene just before the stormtroopers looking for 3PO and R2, when they are locked inside a building.
The third one looks like the Jabba scene in ANH.

Other comparisons.

Lightsabers and holograms have to be blue.
I can change the lights inside the Cantina, though.
About Alderaan that’s just a color correction of reds into greens.

Updated changelist.

ALDERAAN’S DESTRUCTION.

New clip here.

1. Death Star CC (still not sure if that’s definitive. I’d like a more Rogueone-ish look).
2. New track.
3. New Death Star laser.
4. Two clips for the planet destruction, with a color correction into green for the “flame explosions”).
5. Krypton explosion.
6. Millennium Falcon’s interior color correction more in line with TFA.

Sorry to hear that, really.
But hey, your free time is your free time.
See you soon 😄

Anyone? I really don’t know how to remove it with just Sony Vegas. Even with frame masking it’s impossible…

Does anyone have a 720p version of the Tatooine arrival without the ronto passing in front of the camera?
Thank you 😉

That’s kind of like thermonuclear physics to me, but I’ll return to it, lol.

I still can’t consider it as bad… I find it more in line with the PT and ST.
Anyway, you guys are surely more expert than I am.

What do you think about this?

Thank you for criticism.
Right now I quite like it, it looks less flat IMHO, so at least for now I’ll keep it.

What is it that you don’t like?

At the moment… nope. 😄
I’m sorry, I quite enjoyed it, but it looks way too different. Maybe I will add one or two shots of Vader, but nothing from the actual duel.
I’m considering to have a whole different cut for the duel. If I manage to make it work, I’d like to have something similar to the “Return” cinematic trailer from The Old Republic.

Thank you so much 😉

OPENING CLIP.

You can see the new crawl (any suggestions welcomed) and the color correction (Tatooine, its atmosphere, the engines).

Thank you! Yeah, the close-up has already been removed. I just need to find a shot for the base exterior…

And here’s the edited blaster bolts (with new music track).

Death Star hologram and Dantooine search.

This is the clip which I already posted in the Radical Ideas thread.
It still needs work on the hologram, and the Dantooine search will be shortened, but that’s it.

Frame comparisons.
