Making a star wars clip
Hi every1,
I thought that i might aswell make a short video clip of something to practice filming etc before i make the film.
Will anyone be able to give me any tips on creating a star wars video clip?
I know how to create a lightsaber. Just wondering if there will be anything else that i need to know.
Thanks for any Info you be able to give me.

Just have good camera work that doesn't involve setting the tripod up six feet away and having the most boring and static angles ever. Light saber fights that look like your cast are trying to hit each other, not each other's saber.

Good lighting that doesn't make the film look like it was shot in someone's dim basement. Shot from multiple angles w/ dynamic editing. Good sound, fuzz-free dialogue. If you are trying to make a serious, non-spoofy SW clip, then avoid having people make long dramatic monologues laden with Force references, it will only make the film seem corny.
