This is awesome! Rey’s ENTIRE story and arc is beautifully summarized. Such a powerful edit that captures the heart of this wonderful story. Thank you!
Beautiful work Rohan! Even though the quick cuts are risky especially when one does it all throughout, I can understand your choices here. It actually matches Rey’s chaotic energy. Something we always were curious about when we all first watched the Force Awakens. Although Rey’s journey could’ve been handled better, you assembled something pretty special here. A reflection of Rey’s inner turmoil with her heritage. Which was the most interesting thing about her character. Loved the music choices too! I’ve been planning to use the second song (Never Goodbye) for a future project as well ;) I hope you continue doing this if this is what you’re passionate about. May the Force be with you!
You have just made me exceptionally happy. Thank you so much for your kind words and for checking out the video in the first place. The focus on her inner turmoil was exactly what I was going for. I’ll definitely keep editing, I love doing it so much and I’ve got lots of ideas to create (I’m even toying with the idea of a Halo saga tribute inspired by your “the last skywalker” mega tribute) Thank you again sir and my the force also be with you.
I've commented on this before (over 3 years ago now) but just wanted to reaffirm how good this edit is and how much I now appreciate the sheer level of work that this took to make sure all the quick cuts fit with the music tempo whilst also managing to show the story of the character in such a clear and brilliant way. Bravo 👏 👏
Thank you for your kind words. My mother (for who this video was a present for) was similarly happy with it. It's heartwarming to know that people are still coming back to watch my work. Thank you.
This is so beautiful!!!!! Wow!!! Thank you! Rey is my hero, You took so precise that moment with Leia that makes her so beautiful, that friendship between the two and Rey's respect for Leia. Beautiful! I will post your video in my group and Rey's page.
well, I'm very happy that you enjoyed it so much and that you want to share my video with others. since you have peaked my interest I don't suppose you could give me a link to Group you mentioned.
Thank you, I think I learnt a lot making this edit. Personally I’m satisfied so long as I know that people like you found so much enjoyment out of my efforts, and hay there’s still time, who knows how many views it will get in the future.
I absolutely love this. I know her character was plagued by some bad writing, but her arc was beautiful in spite of it. Her struggles with identity and anger were wonderfully realistic and human; I love that in a character.
It makes me very happy to hear that. Though I started this project purely as a present to my mother (who loves Rey) and not out of any love for the character I eventually found a lot to love about her. I like to think that my newfound appreciation is communicated in this tribute.
Beautiful storytelling. The quick cuts, multiple dialogue's intertwining, and then the timing of the music to near perfection. Amazing job man! Up there with some of HFP's work for sure!
Oh my god thank you! HFP is basically my whole inspiration behind editing in the first place And I consider him to be I contender for the best video editor on the platform. Being compared to him means more than I can adequately express. Thank you!
"We'll see each other again. I believe that. Thank you, my friend." - This is not ChatGPT generated, it's an actual quote by Rey from TFA. Let that sink in.
This is absolutely brilliant! I personally will never understand the hate this trilogy gets. *quick question* How do you get all these scenes without the music from the actual movies playing in the background?
Believe it or not, I'm something of a detractor of the sequel trilogy myself but I have a newfound appreciation for many of its elements after making this tribute as a present for my mother. There is still plenty of stuff I'd criticise, but there is a lot that I know think is more than worthy of love and celebration. To answer your question, I use a program called adobe audition. it has a feature that attempts to extract and isolate different types of noise like speech, sound effects and music. it's not perfect and it has limits and you can hear a lot of tell-tail fuzzy background in this video if you know what to listen for but it gets the job done for the most part. there are better ways that result in cleaner sound but they require specialised software or piracy to do it. If you have the physical media as ether dvd or blue ray you can use a peace of software like Handbreak to render the clips you want in your desired video format, just be sure to render the chosen media in 5.1 audio (assuming that is an option) as this will give you multiple audio channels in your editing software one of which having most of the dialogue and sound effects and nothing else. (this varies depending on the media you are using) the other option is piracy. There are plenty of tutorials that will teach you how to torrent movies and TV shows safely on RUclips all I will say is that if you chose to you should make sure To download files that are already in the 5.1 audio format. Bear in mind this method is considered illegal in dozens of countries around the world so do so at your own risk. I do hope this has answered your question and thank you for your kind words.
@@SyncCryo happy to help. It always frustrated me that i could never find an adequate explanation for the use of 5.1 audio in editing even from other editors. I’m only to glad to help a fellow editor out with what I’ve learned.
Any constructive criticisms or really any thoughts anyone has are very welcome.
A Masterpiece

This is such a beautiful tribute for Rey, omgosh. Hands down one of the best tributes for her on this site!!
That means a a lot coming from you. I’m so happy you liked it so much considering that your probably my favourite star was editor. Thank you!

As a writer... Rey is a Mary Sue. She has too much plot armor. Yeah she struggles with anger, but who doesn't. Rey isn't a very good character.
This is a real masterpiece, my admiration.
😃
This is amazing
Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
@@rohanthomas4134 excellent work and the way you told a story within a story is phenomenal. 🌞🌞

No worries man. Keep working hard and I'm sure in time a lot more people will see your talent

That means a great deal, thank you.

Wow respect. This is the best video👌❤
I’m happy to have satisfied your Relo tastes.
This is amazing my friend. Only a select number of editors can blend the music, imagery and dialogue as brilliantly as this.
Well done 👏👏
I'm so happy that you think so highly of my skills, I'm certainly always trying to improve. Thank you so much!
Aw man I was hoping for a Star Wars Expanded Universe tribute video... *(internally cries)*
I’m not sure how that would be made considering most of the expanded universe is made up of non visual media but it would be interesting to try.

Knights of the Old Republic?

Some of the audiobooks of the EU books is pretty good such as the one about Plagueis that Dudufilm used in his video.

That not even a bad line though. generic, sure, but it's perfectly functional and not overly wordy. What's the problem?
