I think I have to agree that showing an amalgamation would only be confusing if we have never seen him that way.

I think if you were to age Hayden up, I would only age him up to his current age in real life. As if they had filmed new footage with 2019 Hayden Christensen.

But don’t you think it’s strange to show a version of Anakin that we’ve never seen?

Tell that to the majority on this forum who for some reason insist on using Shaw.

I would like a version with sebastian Shaw, to do a test … but with hayden aged, it is strange

As cool as this is, I feel like it would be odd to be watching a marathon of the saga and have either the Shaw or Christensen version of Anakin at the end of ROTJ and then have an amalgamation of the two at the end of TROS. However, if I had a version of this hybrid Anakin in both films I think it be super cool!

all fault of lucas, for changing Shaw for hyden in ROTJ hahahaha

What about something like this for Anakin?

https://originaltrilogy.com/topic/The-Original-Trilogy-Radical-Redux-Ideas-Thread/id/63429/page/12#1337765

the result is incredible !!! is very good! But don’t you think it’s strange to show a version of Anakin that we’ve never seen?

I mean, it would be logical to use young anakin, or directly to Sebastian shaw …

it is my opinion 😉

Did John Williams record something for the moment in TFA that ended up using ‘Burning Homestead,’ and if so, do we have it?

edit:
I did not understand your question hahaha, but I have already understood it

the fragment of the ways of the force is not as powerful as burning homestead

Hahaha, we have watched these movies so many times that each shot is almost burned into our memory! But to me, I think the potential that someone might recognize that shot is better than the it feeling like a still image of Obi-Wan. At least we see his head move, and it doesn’t feel like the ghost of a cardboard cutout.

Believe me, I am not criticizing your work, I think it is fantastic so far. But I would rather pick at it in order to perfect it, because it has so much potential. I do think version 3 might be the best of both worlds, though. I think his head in version 3 is a little big compared to his head in version 2, so I wonder how it would look if it his head was slightly smaller. I do think the slight motion you added to him definitely helps make it feel more real.

not worry! hahaha as I said before all suggestions are welcome.
perfect!!! I’m going to reduce his head

IlFanEditore said:

I’ll go with version 3. Or 1, in alternative.
2 is probably the most recognizable.

🙌🙌🙌 😃

You think so? It doesn’t feel obvious to me at all. I mean, his ghost is barely visible as it is.
It might be obvious to us as fan editors, but do you think it would have been obvious to general audiences? Or friends/family members who we might show this fan edit to?

hahahaha we are very fans, surely any mortal would not have been recognized immediately, but we have bionic eyes 🤣🤣. 😃

That’s REALLY good! I know you’re probably getting an annoying number of questions and/or suggestions already, but didn’t one of the pervious versions use a different close-up for Obi-Wan as well? I didn’t recognize that shot, and it almost looked like his face had been altered slightly with CGI. Unless I’m experiencing the Mandella effect and it was always the ESB shot it is here, can you tell me what shot you were using as a reference?

hahaha no !!! quiet!!! any suggestion is welcome!
the shot I used previously was one that I myself composed with the body of ewan macgregor and a photo of alec guinness … but one of the suggestions was that the head was rare, so I replaced the image with that of ESB …

3 versions

These are the three versions … with which would you choose?
I need the opinion of the users…

Phenomenal, it gets better and better. My only minor gripe would be that Luke doesn’t track with the background in his closeup shot, which seems shakier than the others.

I have not understood you well !! Can you explain it to me better? to perfect it 😃

@Jonh Amazing work, but just a nitpick, would you be able to flip the positions of Ben/Yoda and Anakin/Luke? In the next shot of Rey with the lightsaber I think it would be amazing imagery to have her then Luke then Anakin behind her to the right, instead of Ben/Yoda. Either way. Amazing work.

so better???
I have changed the positions, as you have told me … it is true that in the following shots, with Rey with the lightsaber, those on the right are more visible, and I think it is logical to put anakin and luke there

Jonh! Long time creeper first time comment-er on the forum. I got a suggestion. Is there anyway you can render all their Jedi Robes white or a lighter color of sorts. Just a thought… Looks awesome!

Hello! it is quite difficult to make the robes white … I prefer to leave the robes with the original color 😃

Keeps getting better! I hope you don’t take our feedback as criticism. It’s because it’s so promising that we are vetting it!

I like this footage for Anakin better. It’s not immediately recognizable to me.

of course not!!! Any comments that help me perfect the result will be welcome.😃
Sorry everyone for my English, I’m from the Basque country, Spain, and I use the google translator haha

I wonder If you could use shot’s of Anakin, Luke, and with Obi-wan with their hand lifted up as if to back up Rey during the lightning clash.
For Luke you could use the shot of him raising the x-wing on Achto, For Anakin you could use the shot of him force choking Padme, and for Obi wan the shot of him force pushing against Anakin.

that’s exactly the idea i want to do 😃

For luke’s shot, instead of the x-wing’s, I’m going to use the shot of the last jedi, when he communicates with leia, and I will change his hair and clothes, and add the raised hand
