I may have an opportunity to go to a private screening of a Technicolor print, so I hope that will provide some answers.

Woah woah woah! Hold up! You can’t just casually drop something like that and not provide more details!

Through the 4K77 project we came into contact with a private collector, who by chance lives reasonably close to where I live. Although he wants to remain anonymous, and is naturally very protective of his collection of films, he said might be willing to arrange a private screening of his Tech for me to help with the project’s color grading. 😃

Nice!!!

Hope you learn a lot from the private screening Dre. and that he has a nice large theater room that you can see it in. Hopefully, you can capture the real colors/contrast of the film.

I’d like to see some pictures of your BR color correction progress…especially of reel 1, if you wouldn’t mind posting. Reads like you definitely have a plan for your projects, yotsuya. Perhaps you can post your updated flyover, when completed? Is there a date that you want this to be finished by?

May you rest in peace, Carrie.

Right now I’m trying to decide if I should just release it as is or spend a lot of time making a LUT for WillRob to re-encode his source with.

That’s easy. Release it as is for a Christmas present during the two week freeleech on the spleen AND release the other one later on.

Here here! Ditto!

Glad to read that your daughter is home safe and sound Poita!

Wishing all of you here, the Merriest of Christmas’s & a Happy New Year!

Blessings to you all.

Keeping your family in my prayers again Poita.

Actually, “Turkey Sandwich Edition” sounds good for the future release.

Now That ^ sounds like a good release name.

As always, those colors are wonderful Dre.

So the previous images, in earlier pages, were with some DNR?

Wow fellows, loved the video samples.

Dre. Really appreciate seeing the rebel soldiers Blue shirts again, and that sample is very much Technicolor-Like. Nice!

Looking forward also Williarob, to seeing a slightly reduced DNR sample, like the other forum members have mentioned here.

“Blackout”, Thanks for the comparison video, you can really see the difference in there.

I think I agree with you guys…

I’m telling you Dre, your technicolor regrade samples are absolutely gorgeous. Probably the best color regrade of Star Wars 1977 I have seen yet.

Agree with you darthrush!

Really like the “Full Color and Contrast” look, but the “Compromise” look, isn’t a bad middle-ground look either Dre.

The real Technicolor movies of the Silver Screen era, were quite saturated and had a lot of contrast. Your video sample was very much Technicolor-Like indeed, and a joy to see.

Keep up the miraculous work Dre!

You are a Jedi (Video Editor) Master!

It does indeed have a slight Pink, or Lavender hue to it.

Very subtle indeed, but I like the look.

Sorry to read it. Hope it blows over fast, and that you can continue working on your Star Wars projects.

The latest version looks real nice…Great Work!

I love “making of” books and documentaries, so I wanted to share how I put the stars back in Star Wars, as some of you may find it useful or interesting:

http://thestarwarstrilogy.com/starwars/post/2016/07/07/Star-Wars-1981-Crawl-Restoration-Demo-part-1

Part 2 will be the pandown, which was relatively painless, part 3 will look at the Flyover, which as anyone who has attempted it will tell you is not easy at all, and part 4 will look at the Lucasfilm Ltd logo, Long Time ago title card and the Fox Logo, assuming I ever get around to editing the remaining hours of footage…

Very interesting Williarob. Looking forward to the other parts.

Any new progress report NeverarGreat?

That’s look quite promising there DL. Keep up the good work!

^ Which one are you saying, is which one here?

That is nice indeed Williarob. Looking forward to seeing it in action.

Guys… what do you think of this?

They just announced it. I mean, come on… that poster… Mike’s talkings with Disney… Could it really be true? With an announcement of the release of the whole trilogy next year to celebrate ANH?

PS: I’m too dumb to insert pictures in here… / *done, thanks to Dek… ^^

Where did you initially find this information?

VERY NICE INDEED!

Keep up your usual great work Dre!

Wow, again, it looks like I watched Legacy Edition (But, that thing is sharper 😛 4k Quality.), and the negatives look awesome! But I think you fixed the sandcrawler…right?

(and is AVCHD in the spleen as a torrent? Just askin.)

The AVCHD is on MySpleen dot org, as a torrent, yes.

I hope the Mods don’t mind my telling you about that site. If so, please delete this particular post, and if so, I do apologize.

Very Nice DL…PM sent

Thanks Poita, It was really great to hear this recording, and to see you posting a bit more. Thanks for this!

I must have missed something though. What other valuable member did we recently loose?
