Release Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In 1998, four of Star Wars' deleted scenes were released for the first time on
the now out of print "Behind The Magic" cd-rom. These scenes were presented in
very low quality, being limited by the cd-rom medium's capabilities. However,
despite the poor quality, these "lost" scenes hold a special place in every
serious Star Wars fan's consciousness. Up until now, the best way to view these
scenes in their unedited entirety was to view the BTM cd-rom. With BTM long out
of print, these scenes have essentially become "lost" again. The purpose of this
DVD is to allow viewing of these scenes on the most appropriate device, a
widescreen television.
Technical Notes:
Using information from originaltrilogy.com's technical forums, these four
scenes' raw files were extracted from BTM in ZNM format. Using grisc on each
ZNM, each scene's individual frames were extracted as PNG stills along with
corresponding WAV files. These files are as close to the original cd-rom
material as possible.
Each lost scene on BTM runs at 12fps. For television viewing, each frame was
doubled and an image sequence was created running at 24fps. The image sequence
was then exported and resized for anamorphic 2.35:1 and then letterboxed for
16:9. This was done for both PAL and NTSC and then framerates were conformed to
25fps and 23.98fps, respectively. Each file was then taken into a video editor
and fade in/outs were added. A lossless video codec was used at every step until
encoding to MPEG2 and every original frame is presented completely.
Work done on each scene:
TREADWELL - Each still frame was cropped from 640x272 to 616x256 to eliminate
black borders.
TOSCHE STATION 1 & 2 - Nothing. Each still frame 640x272.
CANTINA - Each still frame was cropped from 624x416 to 616x257 to eliminate
black borders and the ridiculous additional SE material at the bottom of each
frame. The original Cantina frame area was also surprisingly interlaced. A
de-interlacing filter was applied to remedy this.
Tools Used (Mac OS X unless otherwise noted):
grisc (Windows)
Photoshop
Renamer4Mac
Quicktime Pro
Cinema Tools
Final Cut Pro
Compressor
A. Pack
Illustrator
DVD Studio Pro
NFO Creator (Windows)
In making this DVD, I attempted to present these scenes as close to the source
material as possible. I did not try to perform any major restoration or
clean-up. The frames are very pixelated and have tons of dirt and scratches on
them. Both BTM discs' extracted raw contents are included in the DVD-ROM
section. The source material is in there for anyone with the desire and skill to
restore these frames. I would be interested to see what someone could do with
this. I personally like the feel of the dirt and scratches so my work is done...
Thanks to Laserman for technical wisdom, Coov for great artwork, and ColinK for
the extracted BTM disc 1 files posted on usenet.
