Amazing! Love it!

Howdy peoples!

It’s been a bit since I posted any sort of update on my edit. However, I did just make a new video with a reedited version of the fireplace scene.

https://youtu.be/AQaBl7FdZHM

All of Anakin’s dialogue has been completely rewritten. Now, the direction of their conversation has been altered to emphasize the roles they play (senator and jedi) are not exactly conducive for a long lasting relationship. I’m downplaying the “love is forbidden for a jedi” bit in my edit. It’ll still be there…sort of…you can better see how I’m going to use that aspect here:

. stormtrooper that bumps his head now doesn’t, he stays back until the leader trooper enters the room.

Woah! How are you going to achieve this? Not just by cropping the image I’m assuming?

Nice! Yes, I do the same thing!..just not as good 😆

Nicely done! Damn, how do you get that nice of a composite? Since you use Davinci Resolve, I’m assuming you do it in the fusion tab?

Out of curiosity, how far along would you say you’re at?

Awesome! Somehow i missed your post. Thanks for the side-by-side!

When you post these pictures, could you possibly post a side-by-side? I love seeing the updates but I don’t always know where they are within the frame! 😆

End of ROTS, add a line for Owen:

“Take [the boy] to Anchorhead and have [his] memory erased. That’ll be the end of it, [he] belongs to us now.”

Don’t you mean at the end of Kenobi?😄

dang I thought that might be the case. anyone PM you about a 3PO costume? 😄

eh…I’m not sure. There’s not enough feathering I think. it looks too sharp. Again, it’s more noticeable on 3PO because he’s more out of focus.

I certainly appreciate you tackling this shot. It needed a bit more love years ago.
I’d say you’re pretty close! There’s still some halo-ing around the characters (I’m seeing specifically their heads). And the background seems maybe still too in-focus? I think it’s 3PO that’s throwing me off. Isn’t he kind of out of focus in this shot? I’m trying to remember now…

I have been meaning to ask: what is different in these pics compared to the original?

The officer’s insiginia has been changed to make him a captain, as thats what he is in the books/credits.

I also added the targeting computor that originally was missing from the scene

Nice!

Yes, it is a very ambitious edit. I would say THE thing that works the best is his new music choices. Obviously, there are many editorial changes, but the music cues completely changes the way you take each scene in.
Looking back, I didn’t give this edit enough credit for all it did.

sent!

On a related note, I would love to hear from Trooperman again…what’s he been up to? What does he think of his edit now?

check your pms

That’s looking really good! No longer comical!

So the idea I suggested to you was not my own. Back in the day, Trooperman made an edit: Shroud of the Dark Side. Here was his version of that scene:

Because there’s no close up of Anakin hitting against the wall, it comes off as comical imo.

Why not have the thing Dooku chucks at Anakin follow him and also hit the wall?
Both hit the wall (use the close up), recolor the lightning to yellow/white, add in some additional electrical sound fx…then it might come off as this object having excess electricity while hitting Anakin?
Just a thought.

Mostly odd 😆

warning: it’s pretty strange looking

OK, I made this in jest, but also…am I right? 😆
