April 15, 200619 yr I was curious as to if anyone knew of a good video editing program for special effects in relation to the Star Wars films.
April 15, 200619 yr Umm.. you're a bit vague. What are you trying to do, rotoscope lightsabers into a home made video?
April 15, 200619 yr Or pirate the Lucas films for some private ... err ... goal? OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
April 15, 200619 yr It sounds like you should get in thouch with panic struck...... DN Edited April 15, 200619 yr by Deadly_Nightshade "Geez. It's like we lost some sort of bet and ended up saddled with a bunch of terrible new posters on this forum." -Hurlshot
April 16, 200619 yr Author More or less for a home made SW universe based film, just for fun and personal entertainment value. Sabers are my prime focus...they are the one thing holding me back. But also to expand upon that into blaster firing and other assorated SW effects. Essentially I am looking for a great program for digital film editing to add to my current "movie making" programs. I can't get more specific than that. Just throw out any program names people may use, like, have tried, etc.
April 16, 200619 yr If you're going for lightsaber effects and such you're going to need a compositing program not a video editing program. After Effects or Combustion are two of the big players in that category. I think Nuke is a big one too. I've used Combustion and After Effects, and of the two I prefer Combustion.

April 16, 200619 yr Viscy's making a fan film under an alt account! Run! Also Oerwinde, what's up with the new transformers, I liked Megatron better. RIP

Then I found Dancing Banana Bumblebee so went with that. EDIT: Found one. Edited April 16, 200619 yr by Oerwinde The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
April 16, 200619 yr I vote you edit your high-school graduation to include a savage blasterbrawl. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.
