    I tried rotoing it but at that resolution and compression it is very hard to see the blades in most frames. Maybe you can provide us a high-res and low compressed file. I´m sure you´ll get better examples.

    Heres my version (ziped file). After one swing something went wrong and the saber jumps off the stick, just ignore that. ;)

    Just out of interest, what's the prize for the competition, and what will you give to anyone who helps you, should you win?

    It just seems to me, that if YOU'RE entering the competition, then YOU should do the rotoscoping, otherwise it defeats the purpose

    Yes but the competition isnt about how good the effects are its about the choreography so if they effects are done by someone else it doesent realy matter, it just looks better than two people with sticks.

    Exactly, that's my point. People will be wowing over the effects, not really paying attention to the choreography, getting you extra marks

    Well effects for me work together with choreography, good effects are nothing without decent choreography. And good choreography looks best when all fx'ed up.

    What do we win? No idea, havent looked to be honest, i thought the point was to take part and try to have fun while doing it. Whomever does our effects will naturally be fully credited, more than that i can only offer my unending thanx and if we do, do well they can say 'i worked on that'. Of course that is presuming that we do well, which im not assuming as the competition it very good from seeing bits of what is around here.

    Anyway thank you very much to odj_310388, looks great. Only thing i would say is that the glows looks abit wide but i may be wrong and my friend thinks the impacts are abit to big cause the fight is alittle distance away. Bar that the roto looks very acurate appart from that one bit but you knew that =].

    Anyone else wanna give it a try? We would love to have a look.

    Basicly we're looking for someone to do our enterance in to the comp would you odj_310388 or anyone else be willing to sign up for that?

    I know its a heavy load and alot to ask as i have no doubt you have all noticed i havent signed up for these boards long, but i have been lurking for years. (Yes lurking, why? Cause i havent felt the need to input my opinion on maters that do not concern me, a problem which seems rather too common here =]) I asure you all that i have been around here and involved in fan films for several years, our choreography is some of the best i have seen, worked on for weeks and we hope to do well in the comp.

    Anyway cheers for everything and i hope someone can help us out =].

    I prefer IRL over ITRW. Took me a couple seconds to find out what it was, actually.
