Nigel, if you want I could encode it into quicktime and upload it on my lunch hour. In fact I might even be able to throw it on a cd and bring it to work, upload it to Ishareit or whatever using our T1 connection. Just PM if you want me to give it a shot.

I'm up for whatever you got, as are the rest of us I'm sure. Bring it on.





Because reading that first thread in this forum is really fucking difficult man, let me tell you....

That's the first damn thing I did when I finally registered...looked for the rules of posting. People complain about how "hard" some people make it here.

Hell, they bring it on themselves. If you just read the rules AND if you've lurked here as long as they always say they have, they'll see that this place is full of vitriol and venom and that's exactly what makes it so great.

If I want candy canes and planes and brand new choo-choo trains, I'll head over to TF.N so we can all have a sanitized conversation about the size of Palpatine's cock and how it gives him the edge over Mace Windu.

I met a guy who was a volunteer and worked in the autograph hall. His orange T-shirt was filled with signatures...probably worth a few hundred bucks on Ebay.

Anyway, he said that volunteers and support staff got to see 20 minutes of the film...dialogue, music and all.

Now, that would be the SWEET footage to have. He said they were sworn to secrecy, but like any good Star Wars fan....

I also talked to a guy from Sony and asked about the bootled soundtrack and he said they were all FURIOUS about it. But they were playing it off that people would really be looking into getting the actual retail version because of the 75 minute DVD. Ha.

He was interested that I knew but I didn't tell him where it was on the net.

Finally, we sat next to guys from ACCESS HOLLYWOOD and he had a bag of the new Burger King toys. We visited the booth and they were out but there will be about 30 toys from all six movies starting May 15. All we got was a handful of free WHOPPER cards.

Mathmatically, this would be impossible. There are so many volunteers and support staff; it would be such a hassle to keep it on the d/l.

Hey, that's just what he said. He described some scenes that sounded right. He was awfully chatty and even volunteered to send me some autographs after the event.

He said I could get in with my media badge and video and talk and even get free autographs of the stars, but they wouldn't let me near anyone in the curtained area with my video equipment.

I'm good friends with someone who volunteered, and she certainly didn't get to see anything extra. She did some free autographs, though.

my cousin has a friend that heard that this kid who knows a guy that works at target who has inside information about a lady that pumped some gas at this gas station that's owned and operated by my best friend's former roomate that said that the new star wars is gonna be cool.

nigel, if you shot this with a DV, I have found the best compression combo is

1. Use adobe premiere (that looks like what you have) to cap the raw footage.
2. Download winavi http://www.winavi.com/ (get the trial).
3. Open your raw avi's into winavi (Choose the DVD button)
4. Convert to MPEG 2 (pull down menu)

I took some DV stuff of mine and it made 900 megs files into about 60 megs. You can get even lower depending on the vid rate you use.

My original vid was full rate progressive 720x480 and the final was 320x240 1000 vid rate.

Winavi will do batches too. So let Adobe cut it into scenes automatically for you, then you can do a batch in Winavi. The transcode in winavi only takes a few minutes. For the 6 minute clip, it should transcode in about 2.

alright i'm going to try that dude...thanks alot

Nigel how did the class go? You didn't ruin yourself over Star Wars I hope?

Fantastic stuff. Thank you Nigel.

I'm 22 and still live at home with my parents.

I wish I lived your glamourous lifestyle.

...28, slave to Starbucks, and live with the parents...

Alright, I noticed someone else got the spectacular footage up! wooooohooo lol...now I can edit that out and save file size...

heres a short sample using the new compression (WITH GL in it)

Get...Mirrors...Up...

Nigel your footage might be better quality. Please don't edit it out.

Here's the sample. Thanks Nigel.

Rustymuffler just posted some of the leaked footage but it's going as fast as the TPMs.

thanx nigel

The first sample. Unlimited downloads unless youshareit is lying.

Oops! Wrong thread. That was not directed at you nigel. Trying to provide a YSI link for the other thread.

Nigel, I somewhat agree with others, but I have a different idea:

Edit the GL stuff into one video, post that, then gives us your version of the ROTS footage in a separate file.

Just in case yours is better.

Interesting stuff and great to hear it from Lucas' mouth himself, but is all basically stuff I've seen all over the internet, plus a few things he says all the time, like the 'planned it to be one chapter in the middle of a saga' speech he says all the time.Good stuff though, sucks that I wasn't there.

For the love of Leia's thong can you send it to me powlease.

Why are you asking for PMs?!

Its not uploaded. Live with the other footage for a few hours til this guy takes more time out of his life to cater to your every need.

Damn.

first post ....

But is there an eta on this?

That's because he's still in class.

And Nigel... I'd suggest separate the Lucas stuff and McCallum stuff into two separate files so that you don't have to skim through to find what you want... and so that there can be separate downloads.

Last he said he was at school. Don't expect anything for hours if anything at all. If something does change he'll write. All you nubs use some common sense. If there was something you'd see a link and three pages of people bitching about nubs and leechers. As it is for now, there is rusty muffler's file. Nigel has a normal life like most of us. He's a student like myself. Please nubs do everyone a favor STFU!

Read your PM's. We can continue this elsewhere.

Sorry dude, I don't mean to be hasty. It's just that when the possibility of a new file comes up, hordes of nubs come out the woodwork to never be seen again. Maybe they are but those of us that work hard to keep these files flowing have to deal with these nubs. This place is slowly crawling with them. Even when new files aren't around, nubs are placing ridiculously lame topics. I don't post topics because hey I don't have a topic worthy of MF. Patience is the key but let me ask you this- how many more nubs are going to put out a first post asking for files or pms?

Seriously, I am mesmerized by it...

Ditto...

that right. get your priorities straight

nigel, if your's is better quality, by all means upload it. You said your version is mid-center row.

Clever observation, but realize that his being at school will do things like... oh, I dunno, preventing him from posting.

He's back from class and getting something to eat before he starts in. Can't encode and edit video on an empty stomach, after all.

Obviously you fucking nubs don't know what a great job Nigel did with the leaked trailer back in the day. He took the shitty Peru version and made it look pretty damn good, but it took a while, because these things take a while.

He'll pull through.

^ what he said

Why is everyone a fucking impatient moron. There's more than three time zones in the world. If you guys have something to say, other than bitching and moaning, say it, otherwise hold your breath. Why register just to drop asinine posts like this in every thread that the mods must go around and delete.

I swear, a little common sense would help 90% of you newbies.

Things happen, like people leaving the house. Not everyone just stays at home all day. He is probably out getting the ladies

I wouldn't be surprised - nor would I blame him - if he didn't even post it at all, the way people are complaining and being ridiculously impatient. He's doing US a favor by taking time out of his vastly more important (to him anyway) life, even at the risk of properly preparing for some essential parts of his education - which I imagine either he, his parents, or someone else is paying alot for - and all anyone can do is complain and be impatient. Wtf? It's not my intention to offend anyone or piss anyone off, so if I have, then sorry. I also know I'm new here so my words don't carry any weight. But seriously. People need to chill.

fucking needy bitches...

u dun know it

Jesus...

Who is offering to do whom the favour here...?
Give the guy a break.

Considering something happened to take priority over ROTS, Nigel obviously got laid tonight. That is the only logical explanation

hi nigel, just a quick question.
Is the footage you have better quality then rustymufflers?
And thanks for taking time to do this for us m8, dont listen to all the dicks screamin "I want it now" like some spoilt brats. take your time if it means we get better lookin footage.

hello everyone, sorry I haven't had more time but it's a killer fucking week @ school...tonight I should have time to work on stuff...but that depends on our class later on...

and rusty's spetacular footage is just as good as mine, I have one huge head in the view of mine for most of the time...so everyone should remain content with that...mesa got the rawkin GL shit though...sorry bout the delay...but now that the movies only a month away, spoiler sites aren't really the focus right now

bbl

Whats the status on the video so far?

maybe you're a poet and did not know that you were one.
