Info: Need special effects for your edit? Request them here!
Time

Nobody is interested to help me in the recoloring project of the black & white low quality scene in Hal9000’s Godfather 2 edit ?

I made some progress recoloring and upgrading the quality image in the background only.

Test (after) : https://vimeo.com/184743940

[Pass : OT.com]

I need to rotoscope the characters and then recolore them. It’s the trickiest part.

Hi hundsdorfex, I risk to be a little off topic because the edit I would like to do is recoloring the “Santino Jr” lost sequence reincorporated in the last Hal9000’s Godfather II revision (@fanedit forums).

As the colored scene before the black and white scene is quite similar, I though the best way was to make a clean background (thanks to all single assembled pieces of frame) in color to avoid recoloring each frame. Hence I would have at least a background colored sequence, and then the characters in darkness would be more quickly recolored.

I know there are several tips for advanced user like rotoscoping or automatic background replacing but I’m a total novice.
The entire B&W sequence is about 5 seconds long.

To put in a nutshell, my questions are :

  • Is it possible (/or would be a big pain for a poor result 😉 ) ?
  • What’s the best way to do it ? (video editor / image editor) ?

I made some quick recoloring and frame assembling tests with an image editor :

Harmy's STAR WARS Despecialized Edition HD - V2.7 - MKV (Released)
Time

Hi, Everyone!

I went through this forum, can you imagine how amazed i was ?

A lot of Star Wars fans specialists, helping each other to restore the movies and... clean up strange George Lucas' "improvements".

As you might guess, I'm looking foward to see Harmy's Despecialized Edition but unfortunately i don't have a myspleen account. So, please can some lucky fan share me an invite ?

Impressive work Harmy! and good support from others ;-)
I'll continue to check this topic as v2.1 seems to be on the way. (and also ESB, my favorite, waiting in a film reel far, hope not too far away...)
