This edit is looking very promising indeed!!

 

Most clips I've seen, so far, I have no issues, expect for one....

 

In regards to making Anakin's saber color red, isn't it rather a continuity error? Being that Ben gave Luke Anakin's saber that Ben picked up, and which gives off a soft blue color? 

If I'm presenting something that was already said earlier, my apologizes then and keep up the great work on all three films!

Yeah, it's been brought up before awhile ago. I dont expect anyone to read every page of the thread :) It's all taken care of.

Gonna start reposting old clips from the Youtube days. These are from a old version of the movie, so expect some fx or audio issues. These problems are taken care of now

Clip 1 - Kill Em All

Clip 2  - Anakin vs Obi (upload might not be complete yet. If not, just check back later)

Info Wanted: Emperor Palpatine -- Sith form "reveal" vs. force lightning backfire?
Time

Gonna be awhile but it will get there. The new footage is being redone, but this was a pic from the original work I was doing. Since then it's getting better.

As for reveal vs rebound, reveal all the way.

It makes him look all the more cunning. Rather than planning this elaborate scheme for years and years. Having all the pawns in perfect place only to let yourself be blasted in the face with lightning so that Anakin would think that Mace is the bad guy.

Still working on it, impostor. Between the Day job, night job, and now freelancing doing edits and effects for a few companies. Time is limited.

I'm pretty sure that dream sequence was from the Cutters edit. I agree it was well done.

My edit will not be showing Anakin going into the suit tho. I'm going a total different direction. One that I hope will payoff huge.

Aalenfae's PREQUEL TRILOGY (Heavily delayed - computer exploded)

The music was a little bit messy during the space battle, sounding like it was switching themes with every shot sometimes. On the other hand, the theme when they come sliding into the hangar and popping out with sabres was absolutely brilliant. Felt like Star Wars. That being said, the drums at the end were building, and then suddenly the mood of the scene completely changed. The transition to quiet was abrupt.

He did mention in the post of the clip, and also below the video on Vimeo that the audio is temporary.

Yeah Episode 1 does still need alot of love so far. Several new FX shot will be done for the film. What those are I will not be talking about for fear of it branching out far too wide. Sort of a "Well you did this, so how about this?" Which I think was doable with Episode 3. But Episode 1 was so much of a letdown to so many, that I fear the size of change requests that would come once people see some of whats planned.

 

To answer aalenfae. Yeah some of Jar Jar's lines are pretty chopped up. I'm currently shopping for new headphones. It sounded pretty good when I gave it a listen with a semi cheap set I have currently to work with. Once I listened to it on my Iphone speakers tho, yeah some of the cuts are harsh.

The Voice work I mentioned is still pending, based off what I feel I can get away with of the original material. I'm currently trying to keep Jar Jars voice in, cause I think a redub or captions would be twice as distracting. Smaller parts will be redone mostly by myself.

Being a Night club Dj has many pluses.  One of them being two industry friends who have offered to let me use their recording studio. I will be making raw tracks and then taking them home to add the proper effects needed based on the setting. I have a very strong gift of impersination. I already have the lines I need for Episode 3 for General Grevious written. As well as the video clip montage of the parts I will need to voice act. So I can watch it while I record. Once Episode 1 Is fleshed out I will be heading to the studio to do my best to get all the voices I will need recorded. I tryed to do this at home but it comes out very home made.

 

To MrInsaneA. Would the line "Destroy whats left of them" fit that part better? Because the first time I worked on that clip I removed the whole holo, but the amount of time the droids spent standing there feels very wrong. And cutting the clip shorter leaves all the droids standing in very bad spots in regards to the clip before or after.

And I'm looking for a better line for Jar Jar than "This way! Hurry!" I'm sure I can find something better.

Ok, update time. This time I'm going to be honest with some bad news and good news.

First the bad news

No the edit is not complete. At the moment its sitting at around 95% done. Again everything remaining is effect shots.
Dealing with 1080p is making it hard to get the effects to come off as not standing out. The shots are getting done but
it takes time to get them right.

Also I'm sad to say that there will be no more preview clips other than the clip I'll be posting today. While I enjoy sharing my work with everyone I also want my work to remain as different as possible when it's done. Also nothing compares to the pain in my heart when the video hosting site decides to blast them all to hell.


Now onto the good news

I've been lying for awhile now.

Part of the reason my Ep 3 edit is not done yet is because I've also been working on Ep 1 and 2 at the same time. The reason being that I always planned on doing them, but I wouldn't expect any one to watch part 3 and then later want to watch the other 2 films once I got around to doing them. Also I didnt want to have to go back and redo Reign of the Darkside if when I got around to the other films and then decided something didnt work out story wise.

At the time of this post Episode 1 is about 50% done while Episode 2 is right about 90% done.

Episode 1 is proving to be the most difficult for sure. Alot of voice work needs to be done. I'm attempting to not have to redub Jar Jar and keep him being a respectable character as you'll see toward the end of the clip below. Alot of turning Mesa's into Me's and Okeyday's into Ok's. I'm also bringing Padmes voice closer to match her voice in Episode 2 and 3. I posted a rougher cut of this clip on another thread. This one is longer and alittle more toward a final product. Still needs some smoothing around the edges tho. Alot of political talk was cut also to quicken up the pace. Most of that will be covered in the opening crawl and later in the film.

Again, thanks to everyone who's shown interest in the edit and to those who helped me out along the way.

Thanks guys. The taxi droid is actually K.I.T.T. from Knight Rider (not sure how easy it is to make that out). I was looking from him to say something alittle more recognizable, but just tossed that in at the last second. Adding the droid smoke took only about an hour.

About the Jango clip. I'm pretty sure that was a green screen. If thats the case, thats a very easy background replacement. All the hard part is taken care of by the green screen.

Google "sand darth Vader Pictures" and flash a few of them in between the video clips. Also maybe a quick picture of Adam Sandler, or anyone else with sand in their name. Or perhaps a sandwich. I just think this needs to be alittle more silly than it is right now. Right now it's alittle more creepy than funny. But the idea is Perfect.

Also would be cool if you had the song mr. Sandman by The Chordettes. I would start the song right after he wakes up, when it switches to the ship flying in space until after the ship lands on Tat.

We need to find a spot for this little gem, its just too perfect a song to pass up. Unless if you want to save it for Episode 3 as Anakin and Padme stare in the distance at each other before Anakin races of to stop mace from killing Palpatine.
