# These are somewhat special
you should have a career is SpecialFX.

I noticed yesterday you said you used Adobe Premiere what do you do for optimisation in Premiere?

# I export them as uncompressed GIF in premiere
then i optimise them in imageready. I think this was 64 colours, lossy 45 - 50 , or something around that.

# Ah ah - yes that would do it as I don't see
much control over optimisation and appearance in Premiere. Thanks

# Just Magic.
How'd you do the sabering??
(Elusive Squirrel, Fri 19 Mar 2004, 11:05, archived)
# to make the sabers
Captured the movie in adobe premiere.

Export file as a film strip.

import the filmstrip into photoshop.

add a new layer above this. fill it black and set to "screen".

use the line tool or lasso and cover over the stick i was holding in white on every frame but on the same layer as the black (which u now cannot see as layer is set to screen)

duplicate the layer 3 times. the on the layer second from the top add a gaussion blur of about 5 - the one below that 10 and the one below that 15. then merge all the saber layers together and set them back to "screen"

then adjust the layer to a colour u like.

export as filmstrip again

import into premier and it runs as a movie



hope this make sense
