I just noticed a Glitch right edge of the screen:

Nice catch. Thanks 😃

Checking the original 720p master , the glitch isn’t there but it is on the 1080p upscale master. Looks like part of the next shot bleeds into this one for a couple of frames. I’ll fix it 😃 If you spot any more, please let me know so i can fix them for the full release

No problem.

Woah! How are you going to achieve this? Not just by cropping the image I’m assuming?

The stormtrooper will stay back until the other troopers come in, this works because he is the one standing guard. I’ll achieve this by freezing him after the door opens and to hide this I’ll add some slight movement.

I was thinking about the change of the star destroyer you made and there is another problem the bridge crest is different on the devastator to the ones in ESB. It’s not that noticeable but it is a difference in the model.

Can you restore the alternate take from Vader in the original theatrical trailer and rotoscope his lightsaber? This is something that should have happened decades ago but has never been done to my knowledge nobody ever seems to want to include this better more aggressive shot where he hits the wall… If you do do that then can you please share it as then people can finally make Star Wars trailers with finished effects 😃

If you want to go one step further on the Lightsaber Duel in the editing in the film when Obi-wan spins around he finishes swiping high after the twirl if the scenes are placed in the correct order he actually was meant to do a low swipe which would restore the original choreography and to be honest it’s a better move too.

Do you have the clip on you?

It’s in the theatrical trailer the alternate angle on Vader but the lightsaber is his white stick. Never had effects done.

The original choreography I think is in a number of documentries showing Alec Guiness spinning and doing the low swipe. Also Making of Star Wars 1977 has the only proper sound for the explosion at the end of the Death star escape turret battle… The sound is otherwise hollow and incorrect in basically every version. The footage is in the film for the low swipe just the shots are inn the incorrect order. Look at the walls in the background and you will see how shots were flipped and stuff.

Do you mean this shot?

Comp (WIP)

Here it is with the lightsaber:

ignore the color issues.

Would rather wait for a 35mm film scan in 4K of TESB 1997 Special Edition compared to whatever this is.

You do that. Back in the mid-00’s this was as close as was possible to get.

Yup. The 35mm scan is looking mighty fine too compared to this outdated project from the mid-2000s.

It’s not outdated, it’s in 1080p. unless you think that “4K” is the definitive resolution.

Update time!
V.2 will be released hopefully by March, or maybe even earlier.

The audio will be 5.1 now instead of stereo, thanks to Hal 900’s lossless mix.
below are some of the changes made for V.2

. Threepio now says “there will be no escape this time”
. scenes restored back to there original form will have the audio to match.
. stormtrooper that bumps his head now doesn’t, he stays back until the leader trooper enters the room.
. all lightsaber flashes have been re-done.
. the five frames during the escape from the DS that where removed in the SE have been reinstated.
. Frames lost during the creation of DevEd have been re-instated.
. Most changes from Darth Editous’s edit have been replicated here.
(pm for link to his edit)

Anything I missed please tell me.

also V.2 will have full visual change list, like this:

It’s strange how this one shot has been taken out of every online version of the latest season 3 trailer and can only be seen in the trailer on the USA version of Disney+

Huh that’s weird, are you sure you’re on the us version?
I cant seem to find that shot in the trailer.

Edit: Never mind, news is spreading that disney plus secretly released “Alternate” trailer:

DevEd V.1

DevEd V.2

Flipping the Death Star causes problems with the lighting now coming from the wrong direction when compared to the stardestroyer.

I flipped it because I replaced the earlier shot of the destroyer with the one from ESB;

so I wanted them to match.

Any ideas on how to fix this?
