Here are my rips from the ep1 & 2 dvd's. Some are usable some are not since they have sfx or music mixed in. Most of the walking and rolling sfx for the droids have some audible music but I put them in there too. BTW, the actual items used to create the battle droid walk sfx were a mop ringer and a tortilla maker according the Sound featurette on sw.com.

Man, I don't know how you can say you're a newbie to fx work, Adywan because every new clip you post is amazing. You certainly inspire me to keep improving my own fx work on my edit. Keep up the good work!

This was something I wanted to do for my own ROTS edit too. I ended up just recycling and cobbling together the battle droid dialogue from Ep1 and 2 and using it in the appropriate places. I tried fiddling with the existing ROTS voices but they still sounded like they were filled with helium.

I tried them. I thought they worked relatively well. There were some glitches as Desree mentioned like the filter eating certain elements like engine glows and such. I also tinkered around with the filter on ANH and got mixed results but I was using the GOUT as a source and that's probably not the best source to use.

Anyway, here's the ESB histograms Desree posted earlier in the thread:

Here's a link to the book Laserman posted about.

I'm pretty sure the draft posted above is the version used for the shooting script. Principle photography for TPM started June 26, 1997 so that script's date would be accurate. It's also the same script that's printed in the Illustrated screenplay book. Not sure about the book Laserman posted, I've never seen that one before. Might be interesting to check out.

I would love to see someone with coding ability take this on and come up with an AVISynth filter. Have you tried the AVISynth development forum at doom9 to see if there's any interest?

That sounds similar to the Avisynth filter "Colourlike" that Desree posted about in the Auto Color Correction thread.

Thanks for the info, Laserman. Although this is the first time I've heard of matlab code, it sounds interesting. I'll have to try wrapping my mind around this too.

Hello there. Just wanted to say to Superrune and Desree thanks for introducing these color correcting methods, they both show promise. I'm doing CC for my own ANH project right now so it's nice to have some other ideas and methods to tinker with.

Desree, I was wondering what transfer/source you were planning to use for the ANH histograms? I've been doing some experimenting with the colourlike filter using the GOUT, and you're right it's probably not the best source to use. I've been getting some mixed results. Then again I'm just learning Avisynth so I might have done something wrong along the way. I did however try out your ESB histograms and they worked great.
