I fucking love these light-armourbros. The gun on the right is legit my favourite piece of new tech.
Seems like film franchizes always try to up-armor and go bigger, invent more and more elite troops. For all the deathtroopers were alright, these boyos stole the show for me - it's nice to see what can be done by stripping down.

I don't know what's worse, that the series has completely abandoned its original premise, or that the series occasionally brings up the original premise again to remind us of what it was only to ignore it again.

Because that's not what we're streaming right now. If you want to watch that stuff, come on at any time during the week, that stuff is playing 24/7 then.

I don't want to cause any waves with what I draw (and I certainly don't want to get banned!) Of course I'm totally fine drawing non-lewd/cutesy stuff, I quite enjoy it. But I guess my zone is cheesecake, meme-y stuff, especially if it's got a sense of humour to it.
That said, I don't want to make anything that's inapproproate here (blue board and all).
Anyway, thanks for all the requests. I'm off to bed and I'll read through the thread for them when I wake up. I wish I could draw every one of them!

I'm talking more about integration than the effects. Shit like motion blur looking different on the people within the scene, and the scene they are in. Other things like the lighting being very slightly off make it look sort of jank. These things are often better handled by more modern technology.

I don't remember CGI Tarkin looking so much like a desiccated corpse when I saw this in the theater.

Revenge of the Sith has so much CGI in it that by nature of it having amazing looking shots that still hold up to this day, the fact that it had a $110 million budget explains why it also has some terrible looking shots (Grevious in the escape pod, protocol droid with literally no textures on it, the glitchy carpet in Sheev's office, general wonky green screen effects, etc.), but at the same time the fact that it had such a low budget comparative to it's ambition also makes it so much more impressive with what they were able to accomplish.

IMO if George did tone back on making every shot dense or whatever and focused on using CGI when necessary, ROTS would be better looking than most films today and no one would complain about the amount of CGI in the prequels. Because it's not the fact that CGI was used, that's a fucking stupid argument, it's how it was used.

>>93525178
well yeah, both CGI and practical effects can either look awful or incredible depending on how their used and how talented the director is. Lucas is talented enough to make A New Hope look amazing with a budget of $11 million, he's definitely capable of being able to work with practical sets and compositing. He just got carried away with the freedom of green screens and having the dawn of digital cinema at his finger tips.

>>93525107
miming implies someone is on a street, or in a situation where their action wouldn't make sense.

I'm saying that the pose and framing of the "iconic" volcano scene is too generic to be a noticable reference to the layman, while shots like Darth Vader's and Luke's during the "I am your father" shot, or the start of the duel in ESB, Palpatine's spin in Sith, or sitting in the big chair on the Death Star, are much more noticeable, clearer references and thus more iconic.

If you want an iconic volcano scene, you want the "High Ground" shot.

I think that's why his cg recreation stiid up better than leia's. Tarkin already looked a bit like a patchwork ghoul, so we ran with it. But relattively normal leia looked like a strange waxwork mannequin that had come to half-life in a nightmare.

There's a difference between what you're saying and a backlight having no in scene source. His head doesn't look like it is actually in the depth that surrounds it, and that disparity is something that is better handled nowadays. It's like the star fields in the classic films; they are usually fully in focus, even when things that have a similar depth within the scene are blurred by the focus.

Okay, either the shadow is right or it isn't. Just because Lucas wanted it to be wrong, doesn't mean the light and shadow make sense. You can't have it both ways. So wish is it?

If his head is lit then that means the light source is low enough to shine into the hangar opening, but the shadow shows that it should only be shining about as high as his midsection.

The upper box is the top of the hanger door. The lower box is Anakin.
Notice how the upper box blocks aportion the light reaching down to the lower box.

This means that part of the lower box will be in the upper boxes shadow. Anakin's upper body is clearly within the shadow of the gate, as shown by his own shadow intersecting it, however his face is fully lit and casts a shadow of it's own.

If the digital stage's shadow is correct, Anakin's upper torso neck and head should be in shadow, but still very visible thanks to the massive amount of bounce light. More importantly it would not be casting a shadow on himself, at least not anywhere near the intensity of what is shown.

If the actor lighting is correct, the digital stage's shadow should be moved back, to allow for the full shadow of the character to be visible.

Physically speaking, they both cannot be correct, and the effect, whatever its intended purpose, is only able to be had in a composite shot.

That's EXACTLY how light works.

You seem to assume that the shot is not intentionally incorrect.

I did not say anyone screwed anything up.

I'm saying that the way light works, both of these things are not physically possible. I fully believe that the shot is exactly as intended, in it's impossibility. Either because there was simply not enough time to tweak what work was already done, or as some sort of thematic choice.

It's the latter. Read Rinzler's ROTS book.
