Fanmade lightsaber duels!!!

Post by twilightprincess »

I'm sure you have all seen these on the internet. Ryan Wieber is probably the best, look him up :D . I made one today (not a duel) exept I used a stick which I shouldnt have, but it was easier (and it was my first try)Here ya go. I will make one with adobe after effects later wich will be 1000 times better. I hope you guys give this a shot is's dam fun but hard work.

Thankyou it is very beta, and i noticed that some parts of the lightsaber swings are off. That will all change with adobe aftereffects, but if anyone wants to know how to do a short easy video (it has to be short or it will stuff up) go Here

Cool. I used lightsaber effetcs last year in a movie for english class. The lightsabers had nothing to do with the story (Romeo and Juliet) but I figured it would look better than the swords :)

After Effects is DEFINITELY the program to use for these things. And yes, it is fun. (Lightning and other such nonsense is fun too. :P)

C'mon you should know my name by now, anyway I warned you that these problems would come up with this program, you have to make a short video. That is probably the problem. It happend to me twice, just make a new vid that's shorter and try again.

I tried that, one was 6 seconds long and one was only 2 seconds (just me holding the lightsaber.) I still get the same message!
