Smeagol used that method in Bane of the Sith.

And yeah, Noodle, I too had noticed afterwards that the recoil isn't very natural... Certainly something I'll be working on for the next test. Thanks for the feedback!]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Yes, I have gotten the too slow comment on youtube as well; when you say too slow, do you mean the minifigure, or the laser? And I am testing out laser designs, more than lighting. Thanks for the feedback, I will try to incorporate your comments in the next test :)]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[So for my upcoming film, I found myself needing laser blast effects. I will be updating this first post as I make new tests. Any and all feedback is welcome, and greatly appreciated. All of them are made and will be made using GIMP.

TEST 1:
[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyGX8jd8sZc[/url]

TEST 2:
Wow been a long time. MEGA-BUMP Started brickfilming again, here's a new test. Is the speed good, are the effects themselves good? I want enough variety between the palefaces (green laser blast) and the good guys, I think this is a pretty good achievement of that goal. Tell me what you think!
[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOfW7Qi-E5o[/url]

TEST 3:
Again been a long time, this is the last test before I start filming (but by no means the last test). It also includes a few things not related to the laser blasts, but just animation and whatnot overall, namely matching animation with dialogue. Comments and criticism welcome and appreciated :)
