looks pretty good for homemade.

I really laughed at the N64 as a holo communicator.

In after effects. I make a solid layer and mask it and animate the mask to a different position and shape for every frame (29 frames per second) for each saber, then add differently feathered layers (I prefer 4 at a 10 20 40 ratio) with a black background behind in a new composition. Then I additive blend the new composition over the old and colorize to whichever hue I want, render, then edit together

Sound like a lot of work? Yeah. It's called rotoscoping. To put in perspective how terrible this is, the following video took exactly 16 hours and 21 minutes (plus or minus a quarter hour or so for a couple times I forgot to stop my stopwatch) to complete: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MoW9Di_A8z4

I was going to say it doesn't seem like it is worth it, but then I remembered I am a video game programmer.

Seen only the trailer. It was nice - reminded me of Star In Black (I would post a link, but I'm not sure if there's a non-polish version and many jokes won't be understood for non-polish people). I have no time now (it's 3:00 in Poland), but I may watch it tomorrow...

Make games, not war.
