Tutorial: Star Wars Saber great
I really liked it.
I am currently directing a professional short film called REWIND. I like your talent, you seem to work towards perfection, which is something that I try to do all the time.
You should make the saber an actual PNG image (using photoshop) and use an alpha glow around the outside to make it seem even more real.
The best thing to do would be to use something like Cinema 4D or 3DSMax to make a 3d, actually glowing (and the glow can throb so it looks like it's pulsating) This just expands upon an already great idea.
Camera angles are easy, once you get over the boredom of learning them all, it took me a year.
However, after you learn about the angles, and what they are all for, you can make and design a movie, on paper before the shoot, ad stick directly yo plan during filming.
Real Video production takes a very long time. For a 7 minute film, it has already taken me over approximately 50-60 hours of planning... in other worlds, good planning is what it takes in order to make your films amazingly awesome
BTW: my films are a shit load better than my flash
KEEP IT UP
