I'm rendering another but with more visible extrusion, will post tomorrow.

Tried that Jedi clip earlier, but it doesn't look right, too long a shot over his shoulder....maybe need a shot from ESB SD crew in pit as an intro shot.
J
I am sorry, I'm not that happy with this clip, i'll maybe go back to it.

Yeah, forgot bout the Yavin bits Mr Fish, the X-wing approach, pity they didn't do the whole Death Star battle as it jumps from obvious models to obvious CG, nothing seamless.
Overall I'd still prefer to watch the Classic to the SE......Adywans :R is easily the supreme version though.
J
The only part I thought swearing should have been used was in ROTJ, when Solo says "Threepio, you tell that slimy piece of....worm-ridden filth he'll get no such pleasure from us"......
......that told him.
J
This is the radical ideas thread after-all!!
J
The only SE CG parts I like in the film is the Falcon powering up & the sandcrawler.
The rest just stands out and ruins the film for me.
Edit: The GOUT footage of Mos Eisley is poor also, so I can see why George attempted to improve it, but instead made it worse.
If anyone has any ideas how they would like to see it changed, go to:

I have that plan to do in SW and before the SE haters start bashing reconsider this..

I'm a SE hater........
...but there is no harm in making an 'alternative artistic' version.
We are not replacing anything, just a different point of view.
J
Yeah, there has been a few demanding 'visitors' on this forum, but thankfully they were just visitors.
J
Oh dear....

I shot this today:
In Belfast's W5

I know this is probably the wrong thread for this kinda talk.... And while I appreciate the work, J.... It's just sooo busy. It's so busy that I don't focus on what I should be focusing on... Mt attention should be on Obi-Wan but I'm busy watching all the Christmas lights. Does that make sense?
No, this is the right place to discuss. I know what you are talking about, it does look a bit busy........I could try and tone it down...perhaps replacing the column with a glow that pulsates......dunno.....but remember this is a radical ideas thread....just a cooking pot for ideas.....I'll try and realise your ideas.
J
It's a very short clip.....the mouse droid isn't lit right and perspective not spot on either, but it'll show the concept.

I think he's talking about the three hatches that Lando goes up on his extraordinarily long quest to the top of the Falcon. I'd rather just have the bright light replaced with the bottom of Cloud City somehow.
Yeah I know, i just thought I'd post that wee pic.
It does seem like he's making his way through the width of the Falcon...hatch after hatch:)

What about the hatch on the top of the falcon when Lando rescues Luke from underneath cloud city......it was "fixed" in one of Lucas' toyings with the movie, but never looked right IMHO.....

Were there ever any official motorised mouse droid toys made?
It would be relatively easy to do the old Batman telly show thing of filming one on a flat girder and tilting the image to match the lines of the matte.
I could actually see it being fairly easy to build one from scratch. Anybody with some RC car knowledge should be able to.
Which scene do you imagine them in Bingowings? I could make a wee CG one pretty quick.
J
Look after yourself Mate!

I rendered it again without that layer...

Sorry Bingo, didn't realise.....I've resized the original image, but I'll use the method you suggested next time.
J
DE, the image of the Mos Espa house was someones holiday photo in Tunisia of the SW sets and the speeder was a very good life-size replica, all images found on Google images.
Bingo, the image looks fine on my page...what resolution are you running at?
J
I know Darth Editous has made a new camera projection establishing shot of Obi-Wan's home, but I just don't like the new SE inserts of Mos Eisley & Ben's home.

Bingowings said:
It's a very good idea.
I remember Darth Venal did a mockup of the palace surrounded with a large vineyard style moisture farm (remember the olives in The Godfather and the oranges in Chinatown) to grow fresh food to feed the court (which ties in with feudal castles too).
Putting the Palace in an Oasis is a logical extension to that idea.
Tents and banners representing an encampment for people waiting on an audience might be nice too.
Between all the comic relief on these threads there are some good ideas, my only worry is if suggestions like this gets lost in the jetsam.
