Aleksbmw: Whoa, a customized laser disk player, sounds very cool! :)

Just wondering, if you're going to spend that much on equipment and customizing, wouldn't it have been better to start with an X0 player and then super charge it with all the best hardware you can think of to absolutely maximize video capture clarity, color accuracy and detail? I thought the X0 player was supposed to be the ultimate in quality, so it makes sense that it would make for the best base high-end player to mod. Or perhaps this Sony C2Ex player has some qualities that made it a better candidate for modding? In it's modded state, do you think it can make better captures than even the X0 project's X0 player?

 

I'm wondering this too.

Star Wars: The Trilogy **PROJECT STALLED DUE TO HARD DRIVE FAILURE**

I'd remove the curved edges.

Also, take a look at places where two stroked edges almost meet, such as the "H" and "E" in the word "THE" for the RotJ and STR in "STRIKES." They look a bit awkward, I'd consider moving them apart just a bit so they don't look like they flow into eachother so much. This also goes for the "A" and the "C" in "BACK." 

Also take a look at the "E" in "THE" for ESB. I would remove the indentations for the "E" where the stroke tries to fill in the gaps in the letter.

I hope you don't mind, but I've uploaded your color correction to youtube, so more people can see and you can get your name out :)

'Thee Backslacpkping With Media'
Time

I watched about half of this. Very interesting collection of Star Wars being used by the media. Even listened to bits and pieces of the commentary. It's uses some synthesized voice, so it's difficult to listen to for too long. I noticed during the long capture of the stormtroopers walking in, the commentary was counting off each seperate trooper. It's also pretty vulgar and is usually talking about something completely unrelated to what is happening on the screen, but it's nonetheless interesting to listen to for at least brief periods.
