- All lightsabers and blasters done frame by frame in Photoshop! The rest of the editing was done in iMovie 5. Overall, I'm happy with the way this video turned out although sometimes youtube's playback is a little choppy so some of the laser gun effects get skipped over. I recommend pausing the video and letting it load before playing.
Special thanks to all those who showed off their skills with lightsabers and blasters!

Pretty cool that they caught a shot of the voice actors for Anakin and Ahsoka in this!

WOW.

Love the few seconds with Rex and Cody.
Frame by frame in Photoshop and iMovie? Wow! Kudos.

This is sooo cool. lol
1:38 the lil snooter in the baby cart was staying as far away from her as possible, hah!
Awesome! Perfect video. I liked a lot. Pleas, post every movie you have of the Star Wars Weekend.
Greetings.
i love the wilhelm scream at :58
I recommend watching some of the tutorials on youtube. That's how I learned. Just search for "lightsaber photoshop". Whatever way you do it, save it in the actions box so that all you have to do is trace the lightsaber then hit play and it will automatically do all the steps. Of course you have to do this for each frame which takes a lot of time.
LOL the little kid getting ricochet shot in the foot lol
I am the first guy you see. I am Shane Stephenson. I loved it. Really cool.
i like it
sweet!
you have anough editing skills to make a starwars movie well done!
0:59 nice deflection!
It depends on how many lightsabers are in the shot but I would say It took about an hour to do 5 seconds (about 150 frames). Also, the laser guns don't take nearly as long.
hollywood studios at disney world. Usually around april and may
@LegoBen In iMovie5 go to File>Save Frame. Or you can choose Share(or Export on iMovie6)>Expert Settings>then Export Movie to Image Sequence and it will save all the frames at once. Open them in Photoshop and draw the lightsaber on each picture. Drag them all back into iMovie and cut each picture so it lasts one frame.
hahaha great ending!
nice, wish it were real though. im first in line for the double bladed blue one!!
1:04 Epic Scene Ever!
1:04-1:05, best bit of this video!
Yeah this is VERY good. I like it a lot. I would wana do this but I dont think Id have the patience or Id just mess up somehow XD
thanks :-)
dude holy shit i'm gonna go when they have this going on and have fricken lightsaber duels dude :P
1:05 was just hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I do something like this again I'll probably try a different way. I don't have After Effects so maybe I'll look into it. Doing it in Photoshop actually wasn't that hard once I figured out how to save the steps in the actions box!
Ah My eye! That clone shot my eye clean off!
this is great, but epic fail at 1:33 she though that the gun was already in the thing xDDDDD
1:41
that kid have the true jedi force
so cool i want to go.
a tutorial on all these effects would be awesome!!
i wanna learn how to do the blaster effects ..
please make a tutorial...
thank you .
cool
DARTH MAUL IS AWESOME!!!!
Nice music.
lol... I was wondering if anybody would notice that..... Good catch!
He blew up the hat!! You don't go blowing up the hat!
Lol ! The Boba Fett backdrop panel at 0:31 actually states in Aurebeshi: TY Hunter(s?) Guild :)
Lol, I just noticed the kid's smirk at 1:47, like Mex said.
how did you do all that in photoshop? amazing!
lolz at the baby with the lightsaber* the guy puts his gun away and beckons to the kid (u can barely see it with his long finger) he's like, come here XP
any one notice the snirk the child had on his face at 1:47 he knew he was going to own...
Very nicely done! What were the steps in P-Shop (I don't have After Effects, either.)?
DARTH MAUL FTW!!!!!
You're with the green and purple lightsabers right? Thanks for letting me record you. Your segment turned out great!
Haha, Boba Fett and the stormtroopers were the best.
It does look like Kirsten however it is Ashley Eckstein, the voice of Ahsoka Tano
1:38
that kid looked like the real deal!
1:33
Uh-oh... That kid is dead. D=
Sing is gonna own him big time!
That was awesome.. I do have a question, How did you open the movie frame-by-frame in Photoshop, and then export it back into a movie into iMovie?
i can't wait till we have the real lightsabers. Their going to be made out of cold plasma so they can cut through anything just like in the movie.
Darth Maul is a bad ass :D
how long did it take you to do it all frame by frame?
like say for a 5-10 second clip? how long?
amazing work..
Really, really good video and sound effects. What software are you using?
real!
was that ray park at 1:26? either way nicely done
The first thing I do is trace the lightsaber with the lasso. Then, this may not make a lot of sense, but here are the steps as they appear in my actions box:
Make layer, Fill, Set Selection, Duplicate layer, Duplicate layer, Duplicate layer, Gaussian Blur, Select Layer "Layer 1 copy 2", Gaussian Blur, Select Layer "Layer 1 copy", Gaussian Blur, Select Layer "Layer 1", Gaussian Blur, Select Layer "Layer 1 copy 3", Merge Layers, Merge Layers, Merge Layers, Color Balance, Merge Layers
Interesting mix of star wars fans with little or no hand-to-eye coordination and 'endearing' nerd looks and others with good coordination and looks ;-)
Once again i want a lightsaber
@Tommy0873 i shouldnt be saying this, but no its not ray. But THANK YOU for the compliment. haha :)
But i AM friends with ray park. Extremely nice guy.
wow tell me how to do that it is soooo koolio. Must have taken a long time?
@twilightbreyer11
Well, you see there's this academy where you learn the Ways Of The Force and when you graduate you are taken to the power crystal caves where you fashion your own Light Sabre. The little ones in this video are just early advance pupils, they excelled and were permitted construction at an early age.
Oh and VAMPIRES DON'T SPARKLE!!
But they do make for excellent spare ribs.
LYCANS RULE!
Yay, he blew up the hat!!!!
@SMChurchill did you notice how the 'regular' people all do the same move? they just spin the lightsaber side to side. HA!
You should reupload it with the techno remix of this!
I do know what plasma is and i only know this information about lightsabers being made from cold plasma because i saw it on the science channel. Look it up on their website it may be there.
iMovie5 and Photoshop. It took A LOT of time and patience but I'm happy with the result. I got the sound effects from various websites. I just did a search for "lightsaber sound effects" and "star wars sound effects."
How did the Stormie do that?
1:56 Commander Cody and Captain Rex rock
The ending lol
June weekends I believe
