It seems that the 2020 Blu-ray has better blacks than the 2011 Blu-ray:

So I figured that the only way to fix this but without restarting, is to rotoscope Vader into the Blu-ray.
And I think I will do this with all the other Imperial uniforms.
Okay
Out of curiosity, why 1080x816? That resolution really isn’t that common at all… not to mention that it isn’t Blu-ray compliant.
Oops, that was a typo on my part, I meant to say 1920x818 sorry.
Here are the posters for all three films.

I have finally finished tweaking Adywans colour graded Blu-ray. To match the Gout.
Here are some pics: http://www.framecompare.com/screenshotcomparison/F29BFNNUThey look really good ThatGuy, good work👍.
Yes, it really does look good. Having scanned at least 10 prints of Star Wars at this point I have come to accept that the colors of the GOUT are not always representative of the theatrical look of the film, however, I spent the 80s and 90s watching the VHS tapes over and over so this is how I remember the film looking and I’m very glad that you are preserving that look in such high quality. I will definitely enjoy watching it.
Thanks williarob! Means a lot to me.
Here is a work in progress shot for the officer getting shot, the blue hasent been added into the walls yet, and the shot hasent been re-grained either
What type of audio do you plan on doing or will you be syncing the original gout dvd audio?
😬😬😬Sorry That Guy just read the audio description lol
No biggie.

Will there be a version of this project that uses the 2019 masters as the main source in the future?
For ANH, Im using Adywans colour corrected 2011 Blu-ray, as that looks better and requires less work than a brand new color grade on the 2019 edition.
Here is a ROTJ color grade I made, and here is the lut.

And unlike many other edits It will be very easy to download and watch.
What do you mean?
I mean I will post a link here instead of putting it on usenet or something.
Which is complicated for some people.If direct download links were allowed here, don’t you think we’d all post them?
Sorry, I goofed I guess I cant do that, I will find another way to release it.
Here is the first clip I made, remember this is still a WIP so it will not looks as good as it will when im done.

Don’t we have 4K77?
Well it will be cleaner, and the color will be very different. Aswell as other things.
Here is the edit poster the full Blu-ray cover isint done yet

It should be blue like in Harmy’s edit. It was color graded based on 35mm sources so it would be very accurate to the original.
Right, I will post a screenshot later of the blue wall.
But remember it wont be as blue as in Harmy’s edit, because this is supposed to replicate the Gout.
So it will have a blue tint but not as much as harmy did.
Do you guys think the death star corridor should be grey? In the gout you cant tell if its meant to be blue or grey… so i will let you decide tell me in the comments 😎
I’m working in re-constructing it in hd
https://originaltrilogy.com/topic/GOUT-Restored-HD/id/87270#1438758
So in 2006 along with the normal special edition discs, bonus discs of the OG trilogy (unaltered) were released. even Though they had terrible quality for a DVD, the color and layout were loved by many fans, You can argue that it may be the most natural grade in ANY star wars release. I will be recreating the (ANH) GOUT in HD using 35mm sources and the color corrected version of ANH done by Adywan, with a few adjustments the color and layout will match the GOUT no problem as well as other tweaks like Greedo having no subtitles, other than that, this is completely theatrical. this fan edit will be released later this year (Maybe).

So, I just made a color correction LUT for the Grindhouse release in DaVinci Resolve. It’s a quick solution to fix some color degradation problems and can be applied in almost every modern video editor, like Premiere or Final Cut.
Here are some examples with before/after comparisons: http://i.imgur.com/0w17vDs.jpg
And here’s the LUT for download:
https://mega.co.nz/#!hsBDHKKY!kuTxtlqZf2lc9UG8iPjx-_rO3_L7FOd-CwGt6fD9cdEI am not quite satisfied with this results yet because I think it degrades the greens a little too much (see Bobba Fett).
I will give more details of how I did it later so that people with more experience can try to do it better than I did.
can you please re-post the lut? I cant find it on mega
can you please repost the lut mega says it is unavailable
has anyone seen or has project blu 2.0?
