Hey guys.
I've had this project in the vault for some time.
This is a reconstruction of the theatrical cut of The Phantom Menace, using the Bluray as source. The missing/digitally altered/puppet yoda shots have been replaced with either the 35mm print that has been floating around for a while, or in some cases, the HDTV version (sometimes the HDTV is just better, and it doesn't have any missing frames!). All of them cleaned and graded to match the colors of the BD. The shot of mace Windu and Yoda in Qi Gong's funeral was a real pain in the ass to process (that flickering light... omg).
And, yes, I tweaked the colors of the film, mostly to tame the magenta push. A few scenes required more work to match the 35mm. Overall, the 35mm is not all that different from the bluray colors.
There is some additional processing to make it look more filmic: dehaloing, playing with soften and sharpen, adding a fine layer of grain...
It's been a while, since I did this one, but the audio track does include those "Vote now!" lines, buried in the mix in home versions.
