Grand Inquisitor VFX Rework- Kenobi Fanedit
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 июл 2022
- "Kenobi: Trials Of The Master" is a feature-length fan retelling of the Obi-Wan Kenobi series. It uses the footage from the Series with other films in the franchise, and utilizes VFX, editing and new footage to create a completely new take on the story. It is intended to entertain and inspire the fan base, as well as to educate the upcoming artists on the possibilities of modern filmmaking.
This is not intended to interfere, or belittle, or replace the original series in any way. That's not even possible, and that was never my intention. And if it was even possible, I would never want it. This is my personal take on the story, and my ultimate love letter to the Star Wars universe.
This whole educational project wouldn't be possible without the artists and the entire creative team that made the Obi-Wan Kenobi series, so go and watch it on Disney+.
-On of the major VFX feats will be bringing the look of the Grand Inquisitor closer in line with the Rebels show and the general look of his species in ROTS.
By the voting of the majority of faneditors on Reddit, V1 or a slight blend between V1 & V2 will be used in the final edit.
DISCLAIMER:
This is a non-profit, transformative fan project. It was made as an experiment in VFX and editing, and will feature multiple breakdowns and tutorials with the goal of promoting creative thinking and filmmaking technology. I respect the original creators of the series and the series overall. Without it, this edit and, all the other fan-art wouldn't be possible.
This is not intended to fix, or belittle, or replace the original series in any way, but is supposed to be viewed as an alternative approach to the same story. Neither this project nor I are affiliated with Disney/Lucasfilm in any way!
PLEASE NOTE:
Because this project is based on the protected IP and I'm doing it purely for fun in my free time, I am NOT taking any donations for it, neither am I receiving any benefits.

Warp v1 goes hard.
Warp V1 all the way, but honestly even just the version with the lines works beautifully.
I've gotten used to the GI's live action appearance but I would love a version 4 edition! Disney could've easily fixed this.
In the words of Mark Hammill: "Disney doesn't care about quality only what makes money."
The ones who are invested in the show are the directors. And I'm sure someone must have seen this and been like "were stretching his face in post right?" And then someone at Disney who never saw rebels or ep3 said "it's good enough".
I think if it the prosthetic had at least looked like the second version here most fans would have given it a pass. Its the fact that the one we got in the show was just so badly done and so lame looking. It loos worse than fan films I've seen.
This looks amazing btw, great job to everyone involved :)
Thank you! Yeah it was a bit weird, especially since now we know he didn't even have to do any stunt work... Although with todays' tech there's no excuse for any kind of prosthetics.
@@PixelJoker95 prosthetics are better than CGI. Practical effects are what made Star Wars originally, aside from the obvious. (Lasers, lightsabers, etc) even the ships they used were real miniature models. And it looked good. They're trying to return the franchise's roots with practical effects, which I'm loving. However they should definitely fix/improve prosthetics that look straight up bad, like GI and Cad Bane
@@SpideyWarsStudios I agree with all of this. The funny thing is, in the BTS material of ROTS we see the appliance of the Pau'an prosthetics, it's 100% practical and it looks amazing.
He just looks like a sick old lady the dark eyes with the Deep Lines on his face looks miles better,even with the shitty skull structure
I really wish they had just looked at the live action performance of the same species character for reference from ep3.
I also wish they just hired the actor they used in rebels for the Grand Inquisitor cause he's a pretty famous actor anyways.
Great job. Ps I think the "earphones" should be higher up on his head. Just a thought.
3rd one is the best
Honestly just giving him more visible lines helps a great deal
Warp V1 for sure.
Fantastic job. This is one of those visual fixes Lucasfilm has no excuse for not incorporated after the release of the first trailer for the series. Nobody thought the Grand Inquisitor looked cool in the trailer and they had several weeks to remedy that. So thank you for being the one to do it!
To be fair I never understood why people wanted him to look exactly like he does in rebels we all know the characters features are exaggerated in the animated shows
@@burneraccount2829 yeah but we had an antecedent of how his species looked in live action with revenge of the sith. Besides the original version, with respect to the actor, looks ugly and cheap
It is nice for you to show us how low quality the recent Star Wars production. Kathleen thinks that painting faces alone is OK to create the illusion. Nice work.
@@burneraccount2829 His species was already shown in live action- so there was literally no reason. I don't understand how a show that should have been their marquee property ended up being treated with such little care and effort.
@@bastadimastakathleen isn't in the makeup department
as always, fans improving star wars
Amazing work my guy!!! I’d personally say that i like Warp v1 the best… Either way super excited for the movie!
V1 is pretty much perfect (atleast the height), but i prefer the second one tbh.
Warp V1, oh god it's beautiful.
2nd one is by far the best. I know his species has the elongated head, but it honestly looks goofy as hell. There's a reason they toned it down a lot in rebels
Warp v1 looks perfect. Don't overtry
Honestly, the warpless version should be how the show looked. I understand not wanting to give him a tall head, imo most of the fan edits with that look weird (although they are working entirely in post, and this is one of the better ones I've seen). But the second one would literally have just been a slight makeup changeeeeeeee why wouldn't they do that lol
Warp V2 is the best.
disney should really rework the original look, you did so well!
Thank god. Or rather, thank *You* for doing this and taking away one of the biggest distractions.
I would keep the Warpless 1 ! Looks more plausible to me
Why did everyone get mad at CinematicCaptures when he did the same thing for Cad Bane lol
warpless is always the best of all these bc it's achievable through practical effects, if a character isn't 100% digital i think it's better to stay what they would do with makeup and practical acting (also won't blow the facial expressions and all that too much) but honestly you can't lose bc u going crazy and i can't wait to see the final
Well his species in Revenge of the Sith was fully practical, and he had a face more similar to the warp versions. Obviously that's partly to do with the actors facial structure too
@@Keanine definitely feel u, and all 3 look better than the actual one from Kenobi so its a win from jump
Warp 2 is the best.
Warp V1 is amazing…my god what a missed opportunity
Longer. LONGER. LONGGEERRR!
If this guy came to hunt me lookin like a potato id just laugh at him lol
I think warp v1 is good enough. Warp v2 looks grotesque and overloaded with CGI. Less is more! ;)
You saying "overloaded with CGI" proves how truly braindead prequel haters are.
The Pauans in Episode III were done using practical makeup effects. Not CGI. Also, I know this is crazy for you, but they are literally meant to look like an alien species. Not humans with makeup.
Go watch your crappy miniseries, and complain about "too much CGI" whenever you see something exotic even when there is no CGI.
Mindblowing how legit this looks, would you say you managed to make it look consistent throughout the whole movie? I cant imagine how difficult that would be to edit, at such a quality, looks great@
Nice; you watch these 'Behind The Scenes' documentaries about Lord of the Rings and the original Star Wars trilogy, and they show how Jackson and Lucas would never compromise and used to push and push their art departments to come up with better and better designs until they'd perfected even the most peripheral characters' looks... and then you watch Kenobi and Book of Fett and it looks like they've gone the first design they saw and said "That'll do". I expect better from Star Wars - even the TV shows; the GI looked like a supporting character out of Buck Rogers...
@@ahmetghuzz Except that Filoni had nothing to do with the Obi Wan series… I’m no fan of The Mandalorian or The Book of Fett but describing Filoni as “lazy, greedy, passionless and disrespectful” is way over the top. Along with Favreau, he”s just not that good at writing grown-up TV shows.
@@SkoolyAd I confused filoni with one of the other directors. The character designs in ahsoka also look very bad in some instances like with hera synduklla, but I do have some hope that the show might make the sequel trilogy obsolete. I just don’t feel the love George Lucas put into the 6 movies in any of these new tv shows.
How do you do this warp effect? Can it be used to make someone look slightly thinner? Asking for a project of my own.
Now you got to figure out how to get Jason Issacs to dub the dialog
Warp 1 is easily the best of the bunch. I would go with that one.
Honestly, warp 2 is more accurate, but there are just things that don’t completely translate well when you move from animation to live-action, so that’s why I prefer Warp 1.
The Pauan species of the Grand Inquisitor was introduced in Episode III the Revenge of the Sith, 10 years before the Rebels show, in which it was made using makeup. It's clear you haven't even watched the movies.
@@ahmetghuzz You have no idea how much I've seen these films, especially the OT and PT. Yes, the species was introduced in ROTS (my favourite film, if you give a damn). I was just saying that despite the length of his head being more in line with the Pauan Obi-Wan meets, it still looks off. And do all Pauan have the same length of head? Do they all need it to have it, if this makes the character of the Grand Inquisitor look better in Obi-Wan?
@@bugs1285 Because this isn't done practically. So of course it looks shitty.
Warp V1 is definitely the best. V2 is way too much for live action
I agree, that one feels just right. Still stays true to the species design without looking exaggerated or cartoony. I also think the red "tears" could be toned down a little, they're a bit too prominent. Would be nice if the neck could be lengthened.
V2 ia better
v2 is much closer to the live action guy in revenge of the sith that's of the same species
@@makinbacon21it looks too wonky tho, V1 is the way to go
Warp 2 definitely looks better. It’s looks more like the rebels version while looking identical to the revenge of the sith species.
Will you be making a fan edit for this whole series? Never made it past episode 4. Also Warp v1. It has a nice balance of not too cartoony, yet realistic.
So much better. Why can't Lucasfilm/Disney do this? They must see what we see
I prefer the warp v1 rather than v2 as it look too much however im sure if the base material meaning the actor figure wasnt that round it would help a lot. Dont know who the fuck do the casting part at Disney but they should really fire him or her.
Gimme warp V2
I really want to watch your edit! When do we get it?
Around Christmas time this year!
v2 omfg
Me turning up the volume: 🤡
Looks great! Only thing off to me is his straight, flat human teeth
Warp v2 doesn't work for me, because the "ears" would have to be higher up, like in ROTS. Looks a bit off this way. So this way Warp v1 is easily the best.
Disney does realize that the grand inquisitor is utapuan. I'd get some fans not knowing that, but DISNEY MADE FUCKING REBELS! HOW COULD THEY NOT KNOW THAT?! 😅😅😅😅😅
According to the Celebration design panel, the head of design (Doug Chiang) also doesn't know that.
why isnt this in the final edit?
I think it's is a little too much with warp. It's just my impression.
Is the Grand Inquisitor cape going to be edited out ?
No, no need. Rebels take place 4 years after the events in Obi-Wan Kenobi series, so it doesn't break any continuity (uniforms can evolve with time). However the look of his species should be constant.
Are you going to give him pointy teeth?
He already has a pointy teeth, but if there is a shot that features it in up-close, I will probably pay attention to that.
The original was shot with the "we'll fix it in post" in mind, but they never allocated the budget for it so they didn't.
So sad that Obi-Wan go this level of neglect. He is my favorite characters from the prequels and Clone Wars and they butchered him here.
Star wars fans can do better then disney Staff. Make up is not always a good idea if you want to create alien live action version. This was good in original trilogy but not in 2022 !!!
Bro, stretching his head doesn’t make it look better 🤦♂️
But it does
Makes him look more accurate.
@@battledroid8010 No, it just looks like a fake stretched head.
