Have you looked at the HAL 9000 versions of the prequels? I have just started to watch them and the way he has integrated a few deleted scenes so far is really really impressive. You should took a look if you haven’t already! Specifically there is a scene at the begining with Padme in the Senate that I don’t see in your catalog.

I’ll take a look, thanks! Meanwhile, can you post a screenshot of that scene? I’m pretty sure it’s on DVD.

i hope you have watched war of the stars 1 & 2 and DAVEYTOD - The Clones Revealed and THE SITH REVEALED!

happy new year everyone.
the bad 2016 is gone and hope for a better 2017 human and star wars year with the 40 anniversary in may for the OT.

how this come along with restore the deletet scenes from the ot?
any video?

Restoring the video at desired level of quality (not perfect of course, impossible to achieve with an automated filter, but very good) take a looong time… the encoding speed is 0.01fps!!!

So, waiting for the new PC to work on cleaning. Meanwhile, I’m still waiting for an answer from a member who could help with the project. It will be done, don’t worry; even if I don’t actually work on this, my mind thinks always about it: “where do I put this one? how can improve that other?” and so on… 😄

sounds good.thanks

Long story short:
PM sent to Jack, thanks for the tip!
Working on a fresh project will help with the others (a lot)
Should find the best way to pick up the shots not in the movie but elsewhere; ideas?

benduwan: danke, nicht Deutsch… 😦

Random thoughts, facts and factoids about Rogue One (I’ll append new ones at the end every time I find something interesting):

• A teaser trailer of Star Wars Rogue One was shown off at the Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim, California, in 2015. It showed a TIE fighter flying above a forest planet and then revealed the Death Star. There is a voice over from Obi-Wan Kenobi that says: “For more than a thousand generations the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice in the Old Republic. Before the dark times. Before the Empire.”; there is only a bootleg version around, very bad quality, taken probably with a phone camera; I guess if there is a proper one somewhere…
• According to a post found in a french forum, there are at least 30 minutes of Darth Vader deleted scenes.
• It seems there is so many unused footage filmed and unused for the final movie, that is possible to make another one!
• There is an after credit shot on youtube; a mouse-droid-visual of a corridor, and a lightsaber; according to many, it is just a fake.
• Many shots in the various trailers, apart obvious ones not in the movie, are just different takes, some really slight; others are reversed.
• There are few movie clips available online, for a total of around five minutes.

The Deleted Magic intro is fan made

Oh, didn’t know that… thanks for the info! Experts like you and benduwan are really needed here 😄

but…i´m the guru…😄

how can i post pics?

watch the links i send you.
some scenes will be restored.

maybe someone can ask him for help:

very impressive his work is!

Top, HDTV-RaiTre regraded, bottom HDTV:

bottom -> better

^…^ said:

Not too much blue, at least! 😄
So, if the “too much yellow or pink” will be corrected, do you like them, or not?

i like the colors more natural.the rai comes close to them. so i will like them…😉

^…^ said:

Further comparisons:

I used just the first part of EP5, because the rest should still be put in sync; color wise, difference of the regraded and the original varies usually from null to small; this is due to the fact RaiTre AR is around 2.0:1, so the automatic color matching script can’t be always 100% accurate; but it does a pretty good job, IMHO.

If there is some interest, I could manage to make a test clip - who knows, maybe also a new project with just color regrading… 😉

to much pink

^…^ said:

Color grading preliminary test - top HDTV regraded using RaiTre as reference, bottom HDTV untouched:

(Blu-ray will look like almost the same, by the way)

to much yellow

^…^ said:

A question for everybody: what do you think about the idea of using RaiTre color grading as reference for the OT version? http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Star-Wars-color-grading-thoughts/id/52432#1018988

i think the RaiTre colors look more real.
make the colors as they is and not as wish…(correct spelling??)

about jamie benning…
is there someone with good conections to him and ask for help with this?

HELP NEEDED!

• a really big fan who knows anything about Star Wars, and, of course, released video - all the original DVDs and BDs are mandatory; more knowledge on video material like laserdiscs, VHS, TV and web documentaries, trailers, teasers etc. is really welcome; he will help to find out as many deleted scenes as possible - even the two seconds long ones hidden in some trailer! found, benduwan; also, pittrek and darth_ender help a lot!!!

i think Jambe Davdar aka Jamie Benning would be a great help with this.
maybe he is the biggest fan with incredible knowledge of star wars.

SPECIAL THANKS:

• benduwan - general “deleted scene” guru, his help is incredible!

that sounds good…😃
but i´m only a help with the OT (thats always the best parts) 😃.

regards

• find a color version (even in the lowest resolution/bitrate) to use as color reference - a really remote chance, but who knows, we have the Editdroid laserdisc, after all!

German version: sorry, but I will NOT do any foreign crawl; for audio, I want to use just English; for subs, I’m still thinking how to properly handle the English subs, for both main movie (that will be literally divided in small chuncks) and deleted scenes; once found the way, further languages could be added - the best choice here will be to add the main european languages, French, German, Italian, Spanish.

i´m ask to a german speaker

Time to buy a new computer just for this project, because the old one is becoming too slow for this… and HDD space is almost over!

make a donation.i will help you.

Last thing: would you like to get an episode release when it’s ready, and wait for the next one,

yes.i think the release could named as a testing version.
so every one can watched it and make suggestions for the final release.

thanks for the info at all.
regards

hello andrea
what was the goal for a release? christmas?
i think you should release it next year.
maybe you´ll find more scenes,more testings,more corrections and more and more…
i like a good one,not volume after volume,because there more changes.
take all the time you need and make it exciting.
