Here’s a brand new RECUT: https://youtu.be/MswuP8RLR7Q

I’ll be back to doing Editing breakdowns soon, as long as work doesn’t get too busy.

Enjoy the Edit!

Really cool recut, and changing the order of scenes gives a clearer sense progression between them.

Why did you add in the medium wide shot at 0:25? The dialogue is unchanged, and you come back to the same medium shot right after. Why not leave it as a long take?

Cutting the whole “someone should make them agree” and jumping right to Padme’s “you’re making fun of me” really improves the flow of the conversation, really good idea.

Hello all! I wanted to try my own hand at the AotC Wizard Duel, so I whipped something up with my DVD copy in a few hours. It’s very rough, but I wanted to try to smooth things in the other cuts, like the Lightsaber sound over “this is just the beginning”. I think the implication from my cut is that Dooku was confident with Obi-Wan and Anakin, but facing Yoda he throws everything he has as fast as he can to get out of there.

Also, I don’t like cutting Anakin’s “I am a slow learner” line because then we’d have to cut this scene(which is absolutely important to the canon):

Anyway, just wanted to throw my hat into the ring. Everyone’s been doing really cool work here!
