what you are proposing is the very reason any of us edit the SW films anyway.
Speak for yourself :p
I fart in your general direction! =)
haha. I hear ya. I guess this thread seems odd because to me what you are proposing is the very reason any of us edit the SW films anyway. No offense though. Maybe good ideas can come from here.
It's still being a pain, but I'm making it work.
There is other music out there. In fact, I would say to not use that specific music cue in any of the prequel films. That cue with the scene in ROTJ is one of the most powerful moments in that film. It weakens a tad for me, if I've already heard in a previous film. If that makes sense. There are other great John Williams cues out there. All of this is simply my opinion though.
haha. I see. I would love for someone to come out with a simple yet powerful 3D animator.

I'm sure that the pitch could be dropped down to match the original while maintaining the new increased speed.
It might sound weird though.
In premiere you can actually match the pitch in a speed up or speed down. The only issue I can really see is the change in music.

I downloaded the model from Scifi3d.com, rendered and animated it in Anim8or (wimpy 3D program), and composited the shot in After Effects.
Looks pretty good. Needs to be a tad sharper though. Is that program simple to use? For a 3d animation newbie?
The Black Sunday stuff is the best in my opinion. Nice find.
Never have I EVER had a problem or have been confused by this sequence. Honestly, I understand most of the suggestions on here, but wow, I think sometimes people over complicate things. I understood it when I was a kid... I also had no issue with Han walking outside the ship to shoot mynocks with a very simple face mask, and somehow, gravity! =)
I think a wizard did it.
It goes. Still breaking it down into parts because Premiere enjoys being a jerk. But it IS getting there!
Long time no see, Brash.
I really liked that, but seeing as there was no music originally for the majority of that sequence, why not use the sound effects that are already there?
Oh, and anyone want to work on a cover? (Rogue-theX?)
Got it running again.... Rendering chunks like I said. Updates soon!
Well, now premiere has decided that I shouldn't be able to open any projects. FUN!
I NEED IT! =/
Well, this morning produced fruitless results. I'm now attempting to render it out in 10 minute chunks. Hopefully that will work.
I'll keep everyone updated.
I changed some settings, and I'm rendering again. We'll see what happens. Probably won't have an update until tomorrow. Thanks to all who are interested!

Also, just a little notice to any who may be following this edit: I've been editing both AOTC and TPM at the same time, and have found that AOTC has been coming along a LOT quicker then TPM has. Regardless, I'm just wondering, would anyone like to see any clips from my edit of AOTC as well?
Nobody likes clips here...... (Sarcasm included!) ;)

I am now working on the Obi-Wan vs. Anakin duel.
Does anybody know where to get (relatively) cheap, but accurate Obi-Wan and Anakin costumes? I'd really rather not pay tons of money, and the current footage won't cut it for an epic duel.
On a similar note, I need affordable Clone Trooper costumes, and most importantly a Commander Cody.
I don't know about getting clone trooper costumes but this ebay site has some really good costumes that are pretty cheap.

Wow, those are cheap.

I'm not planning on cutting too much. What I'm actually doing is adding footage. I want to make the fight have slow, dramatic bits, and not a constant, non-stop frenzy like it is in the movie.
I really want you to succeed.

I hope it's me!!!
...
But if not, I hope it's you ;-)
Haha. True.
Now to my woes..... Ugh...... And here we go.
I'm no rendering at the moment, because it failed... So, then I tried for my trusty frameserver, and it is not working at all. I'm in premiere cs3, and I've never had a problem with the frameserver plugin. For those of you who are familiar, everything comes up fine, I set it up, and then punch it, and it stays stuck on "writing signpost".... PLEASE someone I need advice on how to remedy this. Very frustrating. Thanks.
Someone is rendering out what could be the final cut of their edit today...
