Because sometimes, something you cant have, is more sweet that something you already have, here 's a hint.

Vader factor +50

Ady into frustation +150

Doable? Live young or die hard

 That is SOOOO much better.  That shot has bugged me for so many years now, that even just a fixed picture is awesome.  Thanks!!!  Now if Adywan can do that, I'd not only be very impressed (because I have no idea how the above image was even done), but also very happy! lol

One thing that annoys me a bit about when Vader enters Echo Base.   His helmet seems wierd... like extra short or something.  It's hard to explain.

Actually you have absolutely right. The helmet of vader, changes all the time. The one you pointed as short is the one that when he turns his head to the right direction, right?. Well that helmet supposed to be the first helmet to be in production and its from ANH as well. the mask and the helmet is glued together so there is no way to be separated. but after that they rethink the length of the helmet:)

Nice mockup there Bingo :)

 Thanks for the link.  The shortness in that one shot is really annoying, though.  I don't know what bugs me about it, it just doesn't look right, I guess.  Adywan, you couldn't do anything to fix the helmet in that scene, could you?

Is that not the worst photo of Vader you've ever seen? The helmet is crooked and the chest plate is... completely wrong.

 It's just Vader's version of a bad hair day.

  Btw, I'm pretty sure the 'Yoda lands on Dagobah' scene was included in the bonus disc of Episode III as a deleted scene, wasn't it?

 

 I dought it.  We would have seen it somewhere.  I don't think GL put it there because the CG wasn't done.

 Yeah, it actually was on Episode III's bonus disc.  How could you have never seen it?!

My Revenge of the Sith Trailer
Time

Thanks, Ghost and rcb!

 

Rcb, in time, I do intend to do all 6, and then perhaps a saga trailer, too.  But a couple opinion questions for those:

 

1. Should I use the Force theme-BANG-Force Theme intro for all of them, for a saga-wide effect?  Or would that be too repetitive/lazy looking?

2. Should I use the Duel of the Fates finale for all of them, for a saga-wide effect?  Or would that be too repetitive/lazy looking (or should it be used only for the prequels)?

For the middle part of each, where most of the dialouge is, I'd have different music for each one.

Is anyone going to add slash-burn-things to Jabba's guards in ROTJ, when Luke fights them on the barge?  After seeing what a saber does against flesh very well when Vader destroys the Separatists on Mustafar in ROTS, I think those effects should be added to ROTJ.  To see a burning sword hit the guards, and they just fall, is not very convincing.

right

-Anger

 Yeah, just like that!!!  It looks much more realistic that way... well, as realistic as a lightsaber slashing through an alien can be. haha

My Revenge of the Sith Trailer

I'm not sure if this would go here, or under "Other Projects", but a mod can feel free to move it. :)

-

This was hard to make! Used with Windows Movie Maker, Movie Maker only provides one extra audio/music track at a time (along with the current clip's built-in audio). Therefore, I couldn't have voiceovers and music at once if I put the audio together in Movie Maker. So, I created this entire trailer with audio only in Audacity, basing the music, dialouge, and sound effects on the images planned in my head. When all of that was done hours later, I imported the finished audio into Movie Maker as the music track, and then fit all of the footage to it (including the dialouge!).  I did my best to quiet the music in the original clips (with the exception of Qui-Gon's death music and the first war drums during the first Jedi Starfighter scene).

I am very happy with the final result. Enjoy!

Oh, Adywan!  Not sure if you're fixing this (though it's not much of a fix, since it's more an idea), but in the scene in which we see R2 and 3P0 bickering on Hoth and then 3P0 reports to Han that no one knows where Luke is, the music kind of just... stops.  Abruptly.  On Youtube, I saw a video in which someone put the whole music cue (from the soundtrack) into the scene, and it actually worked quite well, the music sounded great with that scene.  Any chance of re-inserting that cut bit of music?

When ESB:R is released, the 720p version will be released as a DL-AVCHD that will play on PS3's and Blu-Ray players with a menu and maybe even some extra features 

 Please don't put extra features on the Blu Ray version!  I hate it when movie companies do that to push the new format further, keep all versions even.

I also need to find out how to watch DL-AVCHD on my laptop.  Would VLC player play that?

Keep in mind that there is a way to compress a 720p film to fit within a 4.7gb file size (there are a TON of these on tehp@r@dox) and look 720p (don't ask me how they do it, but they do it).  If that is the case, it would allow a 720p film to be put onto a DVD 9, with a good 2gb to 4 gb for any sort of menus and/or extras

 What's tehp@r@dox?

But you are right. We may never see them just like we may never see the CG Yoda for TPM ILM did years ago.

 Actually, more clips of that are on the way via Star Wars in Concert.

Really? I didn't know they were using that.

 

On one of the specials about the concert, there was a part about Lucas' first impression of the production.  During his viewing of it, while sitting next to the show's head guy, Lucas leaned over and noted that the screen was using the "old Yoda", meaning the puppet.  This was during the U.K run.  For the new U.S tour, digital Yoda is being used.

STAR WARS: EP IV 2004 <strong>REVISITED</strong> ADYWAN *<em>1080p HD VERSION NOW IN PRODUCTION</em>
Time

I really like Revisited, though since I have no clue how to find it, I just watched it in parts on Youtube.  One thing that I didn't like though, off the top of my head, was the ROTS music during the Obi-Wan vs. Vader duel.  There was a point in time when there were tons of mockups of that concept on Youtube, and I personally don't like the idea being used in something as creative as Revisited, because so many others have done it.

If I may ask, what kinds of new shots are you doing that requires such massive models?

Lets see if i remember about props:

 

Ady needs: A new canyon Prop Set to replace the bad original composited one, during the chase with TIES.

A star destroyer (6ft?) or Only the bridge to replace the bad FX when the asteroid collides on it during the hologram scene.

A wampa arm/ model to make it more real ( i think).

A bespin shaft model to fix the curvature/ continuity problems.

A hangar prop of hoth to extend the depth and fix some bad/poor elements.

A Millenium falcon prop to replace several landed and fly bys poor shots.

A space slug mouth interior with pointy like stalagmites teeth to replace the old one.

? new rebel fleet props to replace the copy paste ones?

 

And my Thoughts about 3D adds.


Some poor shots with AT-ATs elements that cant stick on ground can be replaced with renders ( we saw examples with Vue)

A 3d cloud car fly by in one of the cloud city establishing shots to recreate the OT feel.

A 3d X wing for Luke's arrival to Bespin.

?3d animated rebel/imperial troops during the hoth battle running here and there ( like the you tube video)?

Millennium falcon's continuous flyby during Bespin approach (like in the menus and what Danves video mockup) with no brake to 2 shots.

 

-Angel

 Wow!  That's amazing.  Has anyone ever gone this far for a fan edit before?

If I may add a slight change recommendation: When the collapsed AT-AT explodes after the snowspeeder shoots its neck, the debris pieces smashing into the snow, for some reason to me, makes the snow look very fake, and the whole shot look like the model it is.  Any way of touching up on the debris hitting the snow?
