San Diego, CA Shadows in the Sand (Working Title)-The Official SDSWS and IE fanfilm thread!

In response to Donny's jawa ending.the high shot of the jawas examining the plunder,could be followed by a shot looking
up to a greyjedi shutting down a saber and turning away after betraying the sand jedi.



just hapenned to have found another 2cents
to put in.

 

the only reason i put three names, cause that are all the names i know....there will be a hell of a lot more names later in the end when it counts

 

so you dont rotoscope is ps? i can do after effects too so its not a big deal

let me know what ya need man and ill see what can be done.... wheres fx88 btw? i aint seen him on in awhile....

 

No, I only use Photoshop for stills. After Effects is faster for video. Right now I'm having one hell of a time trying to rotoscope a saber burn on the stormtrooper's armor.

 

hmmmm.... id make a few burns in ps save with an alpha and then like a grunge map as well does that make sense or should i get some sleep?

 

LOL, that's exactly what i'm doing! The painful part is basically motion tracking. I have to adjust the burn mark frame by frame in AE.

 

bleh i know what you mean...

just thinking here what if next time you apply like a bright green tape to the area and then key it out later with the effect? that would take care of the motion tracking then you could just clean up the effect

 

That might work, but it doesn't help right now...maybe when we do our fanfilm on Endor...

 

well yeah, now your stuck hope it doesnt give you too much trouble though....

 

I've almost got it. I just got to fix one section where it wiggles a tad bit... I'm a perfectionist .

 

Sounds like this is going to be a Killer
fan film,cant' wait for the premier.

 

what's up with the link that JawaJames put up, I can't get to it
The pictures up on Colt's are great though!
I have a 2yr old who loves to be in front of the camera who could be a Jawa

 

i am working on a cast list, so everyone that was in this that HAS NOT posted their info on the IE list...Do so here. List name/character/prod. Asst./driver/umbrella holder/etc...

 

right now imagestation.com is down for maintenance.. try again later in the day...

 

Ah, that would explain it then. Cool, I'll try back later.

 

James: I've already offered 2 more jawas.

Jon: How could you NOT know?! It was all over the thread about going out to the dunes!

I didn't know our events were all filmed? Can we see it at the next meeting? I know JediG60Racer would like a slide show/multimedia show about the club and video clips of events would be great to throw in!

 

Ok, Sith Apprentice - Matt Wiley. My pics should be up on the Yahoo site shortly...I'll link to them here once they're up.

 

Here are 4 more pics from Donny:

OOOOO! I could be a BAD GUY! How cool is that!

Definitely wear my grey robes for that shot.

No pressure, Donny. If it doesn't work out I'll wait for the next film.

Thats a bad-ass poster.

 

Figured I should post it here, too. It's not that big a deal, but the "o" in my name should be an "a".
