Movies Remastered

In the words of Finn “How’s you do that?”

I’m I being picky or does the detail stand out too much?

I posted both a whole ago. The final castle shot is on my The Last Hope thread. Not sure how to link it on here.

The profit-making shit show that is Fixing Disney Star Wars

Dude, let it go! You have no idea how much they’re spending on each project nor how much is being donated. Non-profit doesn’t mean designers/vfx artists/voice actors work for free. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Who ever it was used EbSynth from what I recall.

That has been talked about. It’s an extremely time consuming process which will need frame by frame editing. I’ve love to have Rey in black to represent her in morning for Luke & Leia and actually have her outfit significantly change for once but I’m still working on the crackling Saber plus Palpatines red lightning which is taking forever. If someone else has the skills to do this well I’d be happy to help but can’t take on anymore scenes atm.

It’s finished but I had 2 options. Blur to match the background but lose detail in the castle or keep the detail to have it stand out more. I’m still not sure which one to go with?

Well that’s a no from me. I’m sure it’ll go the same way as steemit, dtube etc.

I like YouTube’s current policies. They cover themselves and content creature but I am opposed to them shadow banning innocent channels and doing thinking about it.

I’m sure this is a conversation for another thread though?

What’s Parler?

They’re using Hollywood CGI artists and paying a massive amount for them. I’m using one of their guys who’s charging £100 per second which is a bargain, IMO. We’re just fortunate to have a lot of artists willing to make amazing graphics/audio/LUTs in their own time in this community.

These aren’t finished scenes. Just teasers to raise funds. This is the closest to finished scene quality they’re producing https://youtu.be/yLT3UCbuoms

Fair use implies you use it for educational, transformative or parody. They’re creating new scenes which falls under transformative.

They’re raising money to cover costs but the film will be free on release. It’s a grey area in non profit “fan films” but it’s a case by case study. Star wars theory is allowed to raise funds elsewhere but can’t solely do it for one project. Fan films are a risky business so it’s always best to cover your ass before asking anyone to donate.

Does anyone have a high res clip of a ship coming out of hyperspace from a side view? Everything I’ve seen has a head on effect.

Snooker, That is incredible work as always. Great idea! I can’t wait to see how you make this work.

That’s exactly what I’ve done but used Han’s voice instead. I didn’t think there was any need for Leia to die at that point and was a fairly weak exit for her.

I literally can’t wait to finish this one now. It’s been over a year in the making.

Here is the finished Vaders castle background scene https://drive.google.com/file/d/1urTlsaMGV7rcHt9I6HVLNyOqUQOZQfv0/view?usp=sharing

I can’t seem to playback any files in realtime so my only option is to render each scene out and upload to Youtube to see the results. I’m trying to add subtle particle flickers to the cracking saber but can’t seem to reduce them enough.

What are your thoughts?

I’m just taking some time off as I’m burnt out. If you scroll through my old posts it should be clearly posted, if not I’ll be back in the office in a few days. No access to vimeo on my phone.

Both myself and 21 Peasant finished the Vaders castle shots. Are their others? What was the Coruscant shot, didn’t Poppa finish those to?

Ok cool. I took about 9 hours on this shot. Adding more effected really looked fan edity in places, where as others looked great. I think it’s a job of just finding the sweet spot. I’ll work on the particles next and see if it balances out a bit.

Yeah, I was helping him before so I asked if he could send me the templates to finish in his absence. He kindly obliged.

Rey’s training Crackling Saber Scene. I haven’t added the particle layers yet but let me know if you spot any imperfections. For some reason my computer glitches on playback so if anyone can think of how to fix this please let me know? I’ve cleared RAM, HD space, and Cache but still glitches.

I posted it a while ago but people suggested adding the smoke.

Yeah, ive played with several motion tracks for that but I can’t seem to find one that suits. I’ll keep trying.

ok cool. Thanks

That’s what I was going for in V3. By “smoke element” do you mean the lasting smoke effect or the initial puff of smoke from the Saber?

Here is an end Saber spark test. 3 different versions, first clip regular speed and second at half speed to see the difference. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks to @skenera for helping with colour correction.

The idea is to give Rey a reason for burying the Sabers after the battle with Palpatine.

V1 No blue puff of smoke
V2 Hard blue smoke
V3 Softer blue smoke

FYI… 🤣

Me too! There were so many to use so I just spread then out across 5 channels. I feel they’re a great addition and not fan edity at all if you get the audio levels right.
