You know you're obsessed with Star Wars fanfilmmaking when...

When you bump this thread.

All of these happened for real

1. When you end up going to Home Depot 4 times in one day to get new wooden lightsaber stunt blades becasue you keep breaking them all

2. When your editing a fanfilm you have a TV nearby playing one of the SW DVD's.

3. When your shooting a lightsaber fight scene you keep making the noises for the blade.

 

When you remember the other two times this thread happened.

 

When you get in a real fight, and attempt to choreograph it, and get beat up.

 

Neothehacker...

When your first film ever is a 15-minute LOTR parody done entirely with filmstrips and a garage-sale copy of Adobe Premiere 4.

Well, it isn't.

I don't have premiere 4.

I guess it wouldn't have been out by the time I was 8.

In which case I didn't have a minidv camera.

My first film was way before the LOTR films came out.

I never read the LOTR books until the films came out.

I would never make a 15 minute film my first film - I'd end up cutting it to 2 minutes.

I've never bought anything from a garage sale in my life.

So, er I think ur wrong.

 

1)you type in a forum in theforce.net 2)about a movie you probably will never make, 3)to ppl you'll probably never kno.

 

When the subsitute teacher asks how many times your normal teachers does the roll and you say thrice.
No offense Ryan.

When you play battle of heroes in the background when you are rotoing.

Don't you mean Duel of the Fates?

 

Thats a newbie thing, not for vets.

 

While you're planning on visiting a friend you haven't seen in a while you think it'd be cool to make a 5-minute short while you're visiting.

 

When you go to your hardware store and can never look at PVC, dowel rods and most tubes the same way again.

 

"When you make threads like these."

when you reply to threads like these





......ah crap....

 

When you go to your hardware store and can never look at PVC, dowel rods and most tubes the same way again.

lol Yeah, so true.

 

When your parents talk excitedly about your film project to their coworkers as free advertising to something you havent filmed yet, and they don't even know what that 60 ft of PVC is doing on their garage floor.

 

when you cant decide what to make your fanfilm on

 

when you buy premiere pro for the sole purpose of lightsaber rotoscoping
(might've been taken already)

 

you can roto in premiere?

i only use it for sound

 

When you try and build a real Star Wars ship.

 

When you're on holiday in Italy and all you can think about in St. Peter's Square is how cool Bernini's 140 saints would look as a backdrop to a saber duel.

 

...When writing with a pencil, you make zingy saber sounds.


WHAT! NO, THIS NEVER HAPPENED TO ME BEFORE!

 

When you revive a thread that died about two weeks ago for no good reason

 

Actually, if you look back, it has died multiple times.

Back on topic: If you bother to bring this thread back on topic.

 

If you actually believe you just used "Force open" when entering the supermarket. (that's really beeing obessed with star wars in general)

 

You know you're obsessed with Star Wars fanfilmmaking when...

-You remember the original verion of this thread and all the people that posted in it that no longer post here.
-You realize that was three years ago and dispite the fact that two or more of your fan films have made it into production, you've still never made it to post.
-You further realize that you've spent over $1000 on said films that will never come out.
-You were around at the time everyone signed up for the 3 years of free hosting from 1and1.com but then had to upgrade to a professional package anyway due to excessive bandwidth use.
-your halloween sock has more than 500 posts.
-you remember the MS Paint tutorial and consider how you could improve upon it.
