"Power of the Force" Video Segments Created for Live Event

Hi all,

I thought some of you may get a kick out of the videos the North Ridge created for our latest event. The Buffalo Bisons recently held their 4th Annual Star Wars Night, featuring a live lightsaber dueling show by our members. Seeing as the Bisons acquired a new HD video board this season, they requested we make some videos to show off the new board and lead into the live show.

We created six segments to incorporate the characters that would be appearing with the Bisons mascots (Buster Bison, Belle the Ballpark Diva, and Chip). These started playing between innings and during inning breaks about halfway through the night to tease the oncoming show.

Some context:
-This doesn't fit into any kind of canon. We have prequel and OT characters alongside fan-created ones.
-The majority of the target audience were families. There were a lot of Star Wars fans but many of them were also families with young children who wanted to wave lightsabers and see their favorite characters live.

Many thanks to the talented Andrew Morin for creating awesome visual effects in Episodes 1 and 6. And thanks to Nathan P. Butler for providing a wonderful Emperor voice.

Oh, and to the techie crowd, I admit I forgot to deinterlace the video. Guilty as charged.

Enjoy!

I was very impressed with the great costumes throughout. My daughter (4 years old) loved them by the way.
