if anyone would like the video tutorial i used i’d be happy to send it to them. PM me.

Could it be that the red saber wobbles a bit toward the end compared to the base of the saber (just after it has moved horizontally through the mid of the screen)? It’s hardly noticeable though.

A suggestion: have the lightsaber cast some red light on the person and the surroundings. I know this is hard, but it might be a nice challenge.

It’s looking good though. What will the fan film be like?
