I recall hearing that in TROS, they intentionally keep Luke’s right hand concealed within his cloak. Not sure why; of course he doesn’t have a robot hand as a ghost. Right?

Yeah, you’re right. I’ve watched those scenes 100 times and never notices. I guess they didn’t want another excuse for people to moan about something.

I wonder if that was Jonh’s intention?

Hal 9000 said:

Come to think of it, I think thanks to jonh we see Luke use a non-robotic right hand as a ghost.

Oh Yeah, nice catch. I’m gonna have to go back and see if he has both hands in the original.

I’m not sure anything he’s been in will be 1080p.

Ian McDiarmid and Sebastian Shaw are both in this. 108.00

Ian McDiarmid and Sebastian Shaw are both in The Nations Health but I can’t find Shaws clip.

I think you’re right. I’ve looked everywhere and can’t seem to find anything. Not even an interview etc

I’ve spent all day getting the logo to separate properly but I wrecked my back over Christmas so the rest will take a while.

I did see a fairly simple tutorial on YouTube using a fake 3d text which I’ll probably end up using that if no one’s done it before.

Yeah. Like when the main logo opens and the white title text rotates 45 degrees?

Has anyone got a template of the rotating title star wars logo? After effect or premiere pro version will do.

Has anyone heard from Jonh lately? What’s the likelihood of him finishing Luke’s haircut?

Indeed. I’d love to have a computer good enough to master Deeplab. It’s incredible what these fans are producing within days.

Sham00k is asking for deepfake requests. Maybe ask him?

Wow! If people are okay with providing deepfakes for fan edits, that would be quite amazing. Like what he did in fixing Tarkin and Leia in Rogue One.

Did you not see his Luke Skywalker one recently? I did a video breakdown review as it was so impressive.

I would like a version of the movie that keeps most of Hal9000’s changes.

My only extra edits would be this:

Keep leia’s lightsaber the same colour as it is in the movie originally.
I don’t want to see the force ghosts. I don’t want to see ghost ben solo.

Id pay someone to do it.

Why so against giving Leia’s colour the colour Carrie Fisher desired while also making it distinct from the other lightsaber being used in the scene (which helps show/emphasise that Ben uses his grandfather’s saber)?

I get not having all the ghosts in the climax… but taking Ben out of the final ghost scene was a big issue for me personally. It felt dismissive of his character arc and Rey’s as well for that matter.

Just curious to hear your reasoning.

actually the more i think about it the more im alright with the lightsaber, but i would like to ghosts removed, especially Ben’s. Simply because we don’t know what they might do in the future with him.

Well, I’m my cut Ben is still alive but in canon he’s dead dead so why not have a force ghost?

There isn’t any that really warrant the castle in other scenes but this one would be perfect.

As for the Vader castle shot, Hal, if you send me the shot and the castle still image (if you have it!) I can put it in my queue, but again, this may be a case of me kind of disappearing for another couple of months! So if anyone else gets to it first, by all means!

Vader’s Castle Mustafar concept: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/501825149469851659/793147257834045520/PicsArt_12-28-05.03.03.jpg

That would be awesome!

poppasketti said:

Yeah, I think I’ll try that! Can’t do it tonight, but maybe in the next day or so I can take a look. Thanks!

If I’m gonna nitpick badly I’d say those small black dots are supposed to be flying ships on Coruscant but they’re stagnant. You could just clone stamp them out of the clean plate or I’ve rendered a clean shot from Episode III if it would help?

That end sequence is flawless! Amazing work, Poppa. Nice to see you back.

Poppa’s knocked it out the park again. Nice to see you back, dude.

Happy holidays everyone.

She doesn’t really show that many abilities other than being a good pilot and helping fix things.

cough Rey is impressive with a blaster and lands three accurate hits against stormtroopers, minutes after a scene that implies she’s never even held one before… cough

I’ve shot many weapons for the first time and been pretty accurate after calibration. You don’t need the force to do that, not unless I’m now a Jedi without knowing It?

I’m not sure what you mean by your Kylo point. He’s trained. Of course he’s gonna block her shots. He could even freeze them in space if he desired. He’s just playing with her which makes his character even more fun at that point.

I’m my cut Finn gets owned after 3 blows and Rey’s one strike that gives Kylo the scar leaves it down to either the force or just adrenaline that catches Kylo off guard. Having it like that makes the audience question the moment rather than just seeing a payoff with her pacing over him.

She doesn’t really show that many abilities other than being a good pilot and helping fix things.

I kinda wish they pushed that part of her character more. She’s always finding solutions and fixing stuff before having force skills. I think that would’ve made her earn the respect more at the start rather than just being good at everything.

Yeah, I checked last night and most of it is consistent with Kewlfish. I haven’t seen you Zorri scene yet but I loved the flow of Kewlfish version. I’m not sure which scene a he finished but the mock up was excellent.

Also, what setting are you using to render out? The files seem extremely small and slightly pixilated.

Yeah, I always try to work on the original and then people can add the LUT if they’d like.

AF doesn’t really cross over versions well from my experience. I’d love to give it a try to see behind the scenes.

Did anyone manage the edit out that awful guard swinging over Rey’s head in the opening fight scene of TLJ?

I’m gonna revisit it and maybe do a cut away but it’s such a bad take I’m surprised it made it in the movie.

Luka Frik said:

Yes Brewzter, I think it won’t be a problem, the tracking of Luke’s saber is done with another layer on AE, I’ll just have to change the video on which the effect is applied.

Are the Exagol scenes with Skenera’s LUT added or are they original footage?

Thanks, man.

Back to TROS. Does anyone have any Element 3D skills in this thread?

Two of my VFX guys have Covid so I wanna lighten the load a bit but I can’t finish my new Mustafar scene. I’ve content filled the establishing planet shot but I’m looking to add 3 Tie fighters to a 3-second clip.
