Creating Basic Lightsabers in Adobe After Effects Tutorial HD

@Hector95100 No, because they had a huge team of rotoscapers, whereas on these movies it’s just one person.

so this is what star wars used. if they did it must have taken them months to do the whole movie where there are lightsabers

thank you thank you thank you

First, thank you for the video! I’m having a weird problem where, after animating the mask frame by frame, the mask is off the same path that it was on when I created it. For example, it starts to the left of the original location when it starts and corrects over time… any ti ps?

the white thing doesnt follow my saber!!!!!!!!! so tell me whats wrong or else screw u

Great Tutorial! Thank you! I noticed that your mouse has a little bulls eye when you click. May I ask how you get it to do that? Thanks again!

The end product was really cool, but just out curiosity wouldn’t it be easier to just use the Beam effect? Doesn’t it do the exact same but with less work making the solid? Overall though great tutorial.

@changraoul CS3 is the exact same. The only differences between the two are some effects and plugins, nothing major.

Can you make a video on how to do this on adobe after effects cs3?PLEASE!

TNX this is awesome tut.But it would be better if i had that red sword!

can you help me please? my solid turned into pale solid? and then the frames don’t kinda work, dude pls help, i appreciate, thanks

i got a problem can someone help ? when i take the lightsaber to the layer, then it automaticaly changes to the VID not the layer. SÃ¥ the lightsaber is in the vid then and i can’t make it moe to next frame

@IlovemyJesus490 then just make a black solid instead of a white solid, and skip the color balance step

what if you want a black core like Galen’s?

the color didnt change.

@m33lad If you don’t like his video, just don’t watch it. If anyones being a retard it’s you.

@alixarnellRAVE That’s what this video is…

Could you do a video on rotoscoping the light sabers next if you know how to x

How do you do that motion tracking thing!?

@m33lad Lol just as I thought, you’re an ignorant retard who thinks that he’s the shit. Come back and post again when you’ve grown up a little.

@theunholybudders you stupid fuck!! I watch million videos a day, I have no fucking problem with no one else but your fucking dumb ass restarted fuck who doesn’t know how to use a microphone! and is a fucking brand new laptop you stupid ignorant fuck!! if you dont know how to teach dont be posting videos up and wasting ppl’s time!!!

@m33lad For you and the other couple people saying it’s too quiet, either learn how to turn up your volume or get better speakers. This was recorded and is at plenty high enough of a volume. I don’t know what your problem is.

talk a lil lower I almost heard u there!!

buy new costumes xD

Absolutely wonderful and Rotflol at 4;30.

This video was done extremely well. It’s one of the best lightsaber fight videos on youtube.

well fucking done!!!

wow

nice job

i can see you put in alot of work into this project

this is probley one of the best amatuer ones i have senn

wow, great work!

every sec of this is my fav part! this is really a nice peace of art work!!! =)

nice effects

Quite the optical sacrifice was made there.

thats great, really cool

LOL the guy at the end

I don’t know why this got a negative. The uploader didn’t take any part in this video at all, it’s just a repost of an already popular vid. In fact, it has Ebaum’s World stuck at the bottom of it. People are commenting and asking questions like the uploader made it.

I gave you a thumbs up.

Do Jedi (or Sith) need glasses? Well done video, gentlemen. Who was the guy at the end?

thats one of the best ive seen very nice

awesome

It is really well done. The broken glasses – nice touch. Kudos.

this was pretty good check my channel favorites for another good one too

i like the part at the end xD

sweet, amazing effects, nice force and everything. plus, very creative ending, whover made this is a genius

you didnt make this, stop reposting videos

its pretty good, maybe put some music in the background.

what program do you use to make the lightsabers like that?

yo, that shit was hotter than all the star wars scenes! i need yall 2 do my video! . hit me up!
