Well, we can't have gray sabers can we?

What's happening here?

Can that be smoothed out?  By the looks of the rest of the video, you know how to mask, have you considered using the masking tool instead of the Lightsaber plugin?  If not, like the tutorial states, boost the shutter speed.

Boost the glow and if you're not set to Screen, set it to Screen.[/quote]

I'll be sure to try that, I did notice this, but I figured that the render engine I use would blend it so I was not that concerned about it.  However I see now that it did'nt so I'll go back to the project and keep working out the kinks.
Thanks for the input! :DD]]></content>
