I hope they are of some help. When you have this project completed I would love to see it as I think I am going to attempt 'Building Jedi' at some point in 2006.

I am so glad that people are enthusiastic about Building Empire.

I copied it some years ago from my friends Betamax. I am sure he still has the betamax original out there somewhere. He is from a family of hoarders!

As for the Super 8mm audio. I don't have it as one file at the moment. Maybe I will get onto that in the new year.

Ok! I've worked around it by rendering a DV file first and then transcoding it in Compressor, rather than taking it straight from teh timeline into compressor. Interestingly this solution also seemed quicker!
So, BUILDING EMPIRE V.1.0 is being burned as we speak.
Thanks for everyone's help!

I have finished Building Empire but I am having big problems rendering the second half!
Basically FCP and Compressor just hangs/locks whenever I try to render it.
So, folks there is going to be yet another delay on this. I will hopefully get the problems sorted soon (any advice would be gratefully accepted) and get this out just before 2006 comes!
Merry Christmas

Ok I have managed to run a simple line out of the projector and am currently recording the audio. I will post the relevant bits as soon as I can.
- Luke - "I don't pick up any life readings" - Different take
- Han - "I'm going back" - Different take
- More rebels calls of 'retreat' when Walkers attack
- Leia "They're getting closer [star destroyers] - Different take - she stutters it twice
- Cloud Car pilots - Different line - will confirm with actual line asap.
- Leia "I know where Luke is" is replaced by "we must go back" or something similar
- C3P0 - new line just before "I thought that hairy beast would be the end of me" - It's something like "I'm glad we are back together"
- The frigate at the end looks decidedly different - i will have to check this.
Cloud City Security - "Any aggressive move will not be tollerated!"
Cloud Cit Security - "Permission granted to land on platform 3-2-7. Any deviattion will" - Han cuts of comms.
Leia - "Lando, hurry up, we've got company!" (as Lando is rescuing Luke from the weathervane)
C3P0- "Get away from there, you don't know how to fix the hyperdrive!
-------
Now note this portion of the 4th Draft Script which ties in with one of these findings.
348. INT COCKPIT - MILLENNIUM FALCON - CLOUDS - BESPIN
Flak bursts outside the cockpit window and rattles the ship's interior. Leia looks worried.
INTERCOM (O.S. Voice)
Standing by... any aggressive move will bring about your destruction.
THREEPIO
Rather touchy, aren't they.
....
INTERCOM (O.S.)
Permission granted to land on platform 327... any deviation of flight pattern will bring about your...
Han snaps off intercom. He is angry. The giant Wookiee turns to Han and grunts. Han turns to the worried Princess and her droid.
This is INTERESTING stuff!!

The differences are from memory but given that I have watched ESB backwards and forwards many many times whilst doing my project I am 99% sure on all of these changes.

for the different footage, point a video camera at it...
Though it would be really nice if we could come up with the $300 to get these telecined.

There doesn't seem to be any different footage as such. And having looked at the frigate scene again it seems that the lights in the frigate model just register more blue (could be the age of the Super 8 film). I will have to take a closer look again.
I am going to try to get the audio from the external jack. But.. the baby is asleep and this projector really makes a racket!
It would be great to get the money together wouldn't it!

Ok folks, there are two reels of 'Selected Scenes'. Basically its just a condensed version of ESB. I purchased a Super 8mm sound projector to watch them on.
Here are some of the differences, off the top of my head:
- Luke - "I don't pick up any life readings" - Different take
- Han - "I'm going back" - Different take
- More rebel calls of 'retreat' when Walkers attack
- Leia "They're getting closer [star destroyers] - Different take - she stutters it twice
- Cloud Car pilots - Different line - will confirm with actual line asap.
- Leia "I know where Luke is" is replaced by "we must go back" or something similar
- C3P0 - new line just before "I thought that hairy beast would be the end of me" - It's something like "I'm glad we are back together"
- The frigate at the end looks decidedly different - i will have to check this.
So there is certainly another sound mix out there!

There are lots of differences in the dialogue! There is even an additional line for C-3P0!

I remember the Unofficial UK Fan Club printing a version of Flynn's piece along with drawings of some scenes. Anakin was a similar age to Kenobi and the whole thing felt so like the Original Trilogy. That was what I hoped for in the PT.
