Beam me up!  My agent can't get me out of this crappy movie.

Don't you hate people that drive with their high beams on.

 

I could pull stills like this from the clip all day.

 

Laserschwert, I thought your main aim was in adjusting the contrast and brightness of the shots to eliminate glows around everything? Is that still a priority? - I figured you'd tackle that first. These shots also look very green to my eyes.

Since the dodgy green tint on the film is fairly uniform maybe it would be simpler to do all the cuts and trims first and then tackle all the visual [color et al] tweaks at the end in one hit.

[yeah, i know these are images posted by a third party.]

I dunno, wouldn't that mean Cavil and co. knew all along that she was one of them? - seems a bit odd. IIRC the actress [Kate Vernon] mentions she was in a few episodes this season...

"Now I’m in seven of the last nine, and they are just absolutely brilliant. I can’t tell you how good they are..."

That would imply she is in every episode from this point on.

Shots look good but too dark IMO. - My concern being that it may be hard on the eyes watching the film graded in that way for 2+ hours.

Oh and here's something i noticed a while a go, wondering if anyone else has - one of the large light logos you can see in the scenes where obiwan lands is that of Skywalker Sound. you can see it in one of the shots vaderios posted - although it is mirrored.

I'd be interested to see what you manage to come up with Octorox.

Yeah the clouds 'should' be fine, not saying it's perfect but i'm trying to keep an eye on contrast. In comparison i don't think it's as saturated as LC.

I was just trying to get a nice clean sky - the green tint makes it appear a bit overcast but it's actually pretty sunny. That said the sky looks different in every shot of the intro - clouds to blue shy to grey sky to very cloudy....

The demise of Spalko is the only part I really hate in the film. Has anyone had any thoughts about it? I'm not really working on a proper edit. just tinkering.

It just seemed like a really deus ex machina way of disposing of the villain, plus they never really made you hate her like the Nazis or Mola Ram, she was just....an annoyance to the heroes.
