Shoot, I got busy with another thing last night; I'll get 'er tonight for sure.

re: the Masters' showdown: I have worked on ways of making it possible for people to duel without being together in the same physical spacetime. (Once, I had to fight my own clone...) It's tricky to shoot but fun to VFXify.

edit:
Cut and print, great stuff FP. Thanks again!

Fireproof brings the Master! I hope all the hype hasn't ruined me on it... 
I'll have to listen tonight.

@Zarban: saber roto is complete, and thoroughly awesome.
What is currently in process is:
Tom is working diligently on the Darth Voyne holograms.
Screwball is fixing up the CGI probe droid model.
Teague is probably not working on Niken's spaceship exteriors because he got distracted by a butterfly or something.

I'll have to comb through the task list to give a better update, but off the top of my head I know we could use:
masking help (to help integrate the CGI elements into the live footage)
set extension artwork (to hide the Earthiness of the locations).
There is a job for anyone who'd like to adjust the saber glow settings on a shot-by-shot basis,
if anyone is interested in doing some of the CGI compositing we can certainly share that.
Also, we could use a CGI animator for the probe droid's menacing appearance.

I love this in principle, sight unseen until later...

<brainstorms mild insults about your bits>
I got nuttin'.

Cool, screwball, that's why I keep bumping the thread, it is easy to forget.

Who else can use Maya here? Screwball is cleaning up, texturing and now potentially rigging the Probe Droid model.
We'll need an animator.
Maya can export via FBX which also works in things like Softimage and 3DS Max.

Screwball, looks like you got yourself volunteered. For modelling anyway. (Hey, do you know anything about rigging, I'm asking for a friend.) We'll find an animator if you're not up for that. It's just a hardsurface droid after all.

Got a look at the Hogwart's shot tracking tonight. That shit is working. I also heard Teague was working on the lightning now, so I bet we see a sample of that before too long...nudgenudge.

List edited!
The Times regrets but does not acknowledge any omission... ;-)

The roto work is pacing along. It's really striking how the fisheye lens distorts the blades in the closeups.
Has that been done in other fan-films?

Did anyone here ever watch "Beakman's World"?
He slightly pre-dated Bill Nye the Science Guy, and my kids recently re-discovered him on Netflix. He is a comic not a scientist but he clearly got good science advisors in the writing process. His show also coined the term, "Mythbuster," as far as I can tell.

Yes.
The world needs (at least, and among other things) a middle road between reading the online pop-science accumulators, or trying to parse the jargon in an Arxiv publication.

Accuracy dictates that you work in "Universal Camera Film Printing Density" space.
The OT was roto'ed on film, sheeple.
